We have bought a 2005 Passat that needs a different transmission. This one is leaking out the front like a siv and it will not move forward on its own. Looking to purchase one from someone who has done a preventative manual swap or a wrecked car.
Not in a rush for it, so if you have...
Unfortunately the wife wants to keep it an auto. I already talked myself blue in the face over the merits of a conversion. So it I'm thinking a sourced used auto trans( it's ok if i have to do it again we have a few spare cars at this point) bsm delete, and a cam. That would be about as cheap as...
I bought a Passat wagon with 161,000 miles on it with an auto trans problem today. It goes into reverse fine and moves great in reverse but not forward in any gear. I did quite a bit of reading here before buying it and looks like the trans may need to be replaced. It is in pretty good shape...
I'm looking for 4 good hubcaps for our stock 2000 golf. Just about any style will be ok. Not looking to break the bank. Pm me what you have, pics would be cool. Good condition please.
Btw I have the stock black steel rims which require a large hub cap not just the center cap.
I need one too :( mine broke much higher so the OPs design is the only one that will work for me. The unit is already off the car so no worries there. OP thanks for doing that this is awesome!!
Hello, I had a post up several months ago regarding a 2003 golf that had gotten in a wreck. A huge thanks to everyone who bought parts and such. Long story short a friend of mine wanted to buy the engine so we took it off the market and then my good buddy recently had a change in his life...
I would start by cracking all the injector lines at the injector until fuel comes out one by one and seeing if there was any improvement it looks like it is not firing on all cyl. Could be your ip failing but you should do some serious testing before jumping to that. I would also pull the...
I would take it to another mechanic for sure.. preferably one that is recommended on this site... if available. if he/she is able to fix it with little or no trouble I would just chalk it up to experience and not use the dealership again... because it sounds to me like they are convinced they...
If you're looking for one in SF area you are might end up paying a premium.. especially for a wagon or golf. If you can stand it try and negotiate with someone elsewhere and drive it home. Not like NY... more like NV or AZ. The automatics are significantly cheaper than the manual trans ones...
I don't think its a waste of money.... if you were planning on selling it in 6 months I would think it was a waste... but if you plan on keeping the car for a few more years then have at it. In my experience most people have a policy of upgrading instead of repairing. So if your car needs a new...
