I had my 81 pickup parked for two years until I had a chance to repair a
head gasket which I replaced last weekend (gas prices going up).  After the

We had a P0303 code on our 99 Jetta, some time ago, but check engine light
did not turn on, and engine seemed to run ok. No miss noticeable miss fires.
Yesterday we changed the spark plugs, at 69k miles, now we get a P0303 code

German cars or myself can find the cause of a f@cking annoying fault
with my car. for the past 6 weeks my car has intermittently suffered

Hi, I've got Dunlop D60 A2's right now - 205/50/15.  So/so - the're worn out
after about 45,000 km, which is ok, but they never really had great
traction, especially in the wet.
I have a set of snow tires (live in Toronto, Can), so I'm only concerned

I want to change out my MTF to try and make my 2nd gear shifts more smooth
without the syncro grind that I occassional get.  I've read that sometime
the Redline MTF will help remedy this situation. I was just curious how easy
it is to get the bolt off & change the fluid. I have a ...
