Pardon me, I am new to newsgroups, I've tried to research this
subject, but have come up with no results.  I hope I am not asking the
same question that others have asked.  So, here is my situation:
Got into a wreck- rear ended someone and their trailor ball punched

I have replaced master cylinder, brake lines (rubber) in
front,calipers,brake regulator, and pads on my 88  jetta and the front
brakes still lock-up on me. I will be driving and have to stop and
release the pressure on the right front disk after about 10 stop signs.

I have a '97 jetta TD, and I thought I was overheating only at high speeds,
but it seams to be loosing coolant threw the vent on the resevoir? (
presure in cooling system?). Then it begins to overheat.....Since there is
no rad cap, does the resevoir cap regulate the presure?

I got to do some laps at Road Atalanta last night. I have watched a
number of races but this was the first time I got to be on the track.
My best lap of nine was a 6:08.

I know I've stripped one hole on the tranny housing that holds the 4
bolts for the transmision pan.  Looks like I can drill through to the

Does anyone know the torque required to tighten these 4 bolts?  I have

Well, I finally got my 83 GTI up and running (it needed a new hall sender).
But it seems that the numerous backfires have taken their toll. I actually
noticed this new problem just after one of the last backfires so I'm pretty
certain it was the cause.

I just went to get gas and while I did leave not much gas in before I
filled, now the car won't start. I know it wasn't heated and it is
turning over and I can smell gas. Any ideas? Many thanks

lost tickover, just stops when no throttle
checked wiring & plugs around air intake, all ok

My passat will not start.  No lights come on but the engine turns over.
Sometimes with a stroke of luck the lights come on and starts. Has anyone
had this before?

Got a new one from VW. The gasket between the two parts of the waterpump
(which has arrived fully assembled and bolted together) - should it be left
as it is, or taken to bits and sealanted?
And I've missed the rebate period by a week? Anyone offering odds?
