Its so annoying when ur very new radio gave u " safe" instead of singing, and u cant  find any code anywhere on the manual. I guess the only sensible thing to do now is to calmly pull it out as quickly as I can and stump on it real good. The volkswagen premium audio which came ...

I just noticed today that my lighter plug is gone (no electricity to the
lighter or any of the chargers).

does it just mean that I suck it up and buy a new one.

i have had this problem going on for several weeks now. the battery
won't charge worth a sh.t most of the time. the alternator and battery

Was looking under the little bitty plastic shield under the hood, left side,
just in front of the windscreen; I think this shield makes rainwater go
somewhere other than down on the shelf the wiper motor sits on.
There are two little "studs" about 1/4" high and about 2" apart, looks ...

Does anyone know how to find replacements for the "new style" aerotwin
Passat windshield wipers (other than the dealership, where it costs
about $100 !!!). I was not able to find any replacement for those (I

Hey all,
Is it unusual for the fuel pump housing to be leaking?  I've scored a used
assembly for an '89 GLi 16V, with the accumulator/pump/filter/housing.  Any
