I have an 1982 Diesel Rabbit. Lately the starter motor has been 'balky',
encountering some kind of resistance. Taking the starter motor out is so
simple that this seemed to be a good, thorough start to troubleshooting.
The starter motor spindle that projects beyond the gear looked ...

Can someone tell me, on a Corrado G60, is there any kind of filter in
what I assume is the PCV valve (big square thing on the driver's side of
the timing cover, with an elbow to the boost bypass tube) and if so how
does one clean it?  There's a lot of oil in the boost tubes and I ...

Looking to purchase a 2000 Golf with only 38,000 miles.
The only trim/performance designation on the body is
"Golf". No GL or GLS or whatever. Automatic transmission,
4-door, power windows/mirrors, cloth interior. Looking for

I noticed a rattling noise in the engine area anytime I "give it the
gas". It's worse between 40-50mph. It seems to be worse depending on
how cold it is outside. I drove it 3 hours one day and at the end of
the trip I could barely hear it. I've taken it to VW dealership (they

Something is wrong with my gearbox.  I noticed a problem getting the
gear into Reverse and then at a stoplight a few minutes later, I was
unable to put the car into any gear.  I sat there with my hazards on
and finally got it into 1st gear, but when I went to change to 2nd, it

I want to modify my rear panel behind the back seat to a fiberglass
shell that can hold one 10" woofer and two 6" mids can any one give me
some tips? I have never used fiber glass and don't know where to start.

I own a 2003 Passat, and the drivers seat cushion is pretty worn. The
seats are leather and also heated. I am wondering if it is possible to
DIY switch the front passenger seat cushion (or the bottom half of the
seat) with the driver side seat? Or, do have have to call a junkyard

I am trying to sell my 2000 Beetle GLX 1.8t automatic with 68,600 miles.
Besides all the options that come standard on the GLX, it also has a
clear bra and tinted windows. It's in very good shape with a little wear
and tear for it's age and miles and I have all service records and ...

Would anyone know where I could find the specs, engine data or

they have an issue of trying to turn the piston back in. The are pushing and
turning with all their might but the piston is not receeding. The piston is
turning but like I said, not receeding. Is there ...

I posted here a couple days ago about my 2000 Beetle 1.8t with 70 k
miles puttering like a diesel. I took it to the dealer and they were too
booked up to take me until next week but by the sound they guessed it to
be something loose, vibrating. I then took it to a VW tuner shop and ...

95 Passat VR6.  Been religiously using the NGK BKR-5-EKU spark plugs
since I bought the car used a few years ago.  First set ran 34,000 km
before the engine started to miss.  Next set made it 30,000km before
the missing and stumbling started.  Not what I'd expect from $10 plugs.

VW dealer recommends that I get the timing belt replaced on my 2000 Passat
4Motion with 104K miles.  Says it could go any time, although they can't
inspect it without spending 3 hours taking the car appart.  They want to
charge me $1300.  Should I get it done?  Could I get it ...
