I have a well-worn 92 Jetta with a 1.8L RV engine.  The car starts fine
and for the first ten minutes or so works flawlessly.  Once everything
heats up however I am getting erratic misfiring on all cylinders.  It

I like the 92 jetta sedan I have; would like a wagon more.  Want a diesel -
were they made in those years with that engine, and if so, when looking
for/at one, what should I be aware of?

What's the capacity of the '87 16V Scirocco gas tank?  It was originally sold
in Massachusetts, if that makes a difference.
I remember looking it up somewhere and finding 12 gallons.
I just did it again, and found a replacement tank, which claims a capacity of

I just swapped in some new low beams (superwhite 5000k.)  Now, my '01
GTI VR6 seems to have forgotten it has DRL.  Not that it's a big deal
or anything, but i was just wondering if my suspicion is correct.  I'm
thinking it's just that my bulbs (cheap: $5 each) are simply not

 I'm stumped, seeking your tips for things to check. Have searched
this forum and have tried suggestions posted by others for situations

For those who don't know the new VWm is the last one. (Typically it was only
last month we renewed our subscription and I find it hard to believe that
last month when they asked for the money they didn't know this would be the
end.) It's quite a shame as it was a nicely balanced ...

Anyone have a schematic online somewhere of how the power locks are wired in
a 96 cabrio?
I'm specifically looking for whether I can use an aftermarket system that

I just completed installing a rebuilt cylinder head, timing belt, and
tensioner, in my 78 VW Rabbit Diesel.  The engine turns over, but will
not start.  It looks like a fuel delivery problem because there is no

I have a Golf model GLX 1997 (made in Mexico) and I need to find a
rubber part that is used on the Gear Shift mechanism. It is a rubber at

(RHD UK) estate. I have been gathering info from a range of sources so I can
minimise any problems I may encounter.
I'd appreciate anyone's advice or experience on doing this job.

hello,  i'm just replacing head gasket which failed - it's got a split
in it and poured all the water out.  I wanted to buy OEM parts to
replace but my local VW centre says they are all discontinued.
Any advice on good supplier for the rubber gasket and which sealant I
