    What is the rated GPM requirements of the IP in the 1.6 NA? I'm looking to do a 2-tank system in the near future on the 80 Caddy and POSSIBLY the '84 HB I as well. Need a couple 3-way solenoid valves to make it work and my selection is currently set on 2 different sizes. One varies between...
  2. Jetta / Bora MK5 / 2005–2010
    Hey guys So a couple of days ago my car went into limp mode after driving around. The gears on the dashboard started flashing and it was stuck in 3rd gear. I wasn't even able to reverse the car. Eventually it shuts off and the only way for it to start again is to let it cool down. I can drive...
  3. EOS New To The Forum / Frequently Asked Questions
    Hi, I had two Bugs over the years. I loved them. Just got my wife a 2008 EOS Turbo. Looking for couple of things, the 3.1 "Controls and Equipment" manual, and is there such a thing as a "build sheet" that show how the car was build?
  4. Air-cooled Owners Club
    Hello, I'm a "newbee" to the air cooled VW world. Quick question: How do I remove the glove box? I've removed the front door, unscrewed the upper latching device, found a couple of side screws, but I can't seem to remove the inner box. Anything I've missed? Thanks (1st Bug).

    Good morning! I've looked through the manual, and I'm HOPING I'm wrong, but I don't believe there is seat memory for the SE? If anyone can tell me differently, I'd be pretty happy! It's such a SILLY thing, but when my husband drives, he puts the seat back and sideways maybe....lol....?! I...

    My 1981 truck has been stalling when the engine reaches temp recently. When I try to start it again, the fuel pump doesn't kick in. If I wait 15 or 20 minutes, it will usually start again, but only until the engine reaches temp again. I'm thinking the coil, the warm pressure regulator, or? I...
  7. Golf MK2 / 1983-1992
    hmm . . . I posted this a couple of days ago, but it seems to have vanished. I am looking for the metal trim that is embedded in the rubber that goes around the passenger door window of a 1985 two-door golf. No luck with ECS Tuning or Orchid Euro. Does anybody have any brilliant ideas?

    Howdy folks! I just acquired an 81 Caddy with a droopy headliner. I removed it and scrapped the foam from the cardboard and vinyl. I thought I could just contact cement it back to the cardboard but found it had shrunk over the years of being free from the cardboard. I looked at a couple of...
  9. Passat B5 Forums
    New owner for to this car. Has 170k runs well but has a couple issues. First one is my running lights not working. I ordered a switch since no fuses are blown. I noticed that if I leave the light switch on when I open the car door I no longer get the noise to let me know my running lights are...

    My truck won't start after overcharging the battery. I changed the voltage regulator/alternator and the ICM. It still won't start. How would I check the coil? Would the hall sender in the distributor be suspect after charging at 18v for a couple of days? What damage and to what could result in...

    Hello VWOC, I am James Greenhow Jr (not my Dad) and I am happy to say that I have finally, after years of watching and wanting, got my first Classic Beetle ... a '70 Classic, with rebuilt 1600. I'm in Quality Engineering for a propeller manufacturer (serious air-cooled engines here) and have...

    Has anyone experienced a failure of their SiriusXM radio to load due to an antenna fault code? If so, what have you done? Do you know how to get to your antenna lead without going to the dealer where they want to charge $135 to start and upwards of $650 to find and repair said lead? Radio...

    I have an 84 rabbit and a couple of questions. My rabbit is a 1.6L diesel and it has a 134a system in it. Is the factory system r134a or does it come stock with R12? how much Freon/oil is required for stock purposes and how much Freon/oil is usually required for aftermarket systems. and...

    I heard a grinding noise coming frm the brakes. I took it to a place that advertises free brake checks. They confirmed my suspicion. A couple of friends suggest I do it myself. I don't have much experience, I've done brake pads once before. What do you guys recommend? Any brands I should...
  16. Golf MK4 / 1999-2002
    After a "minor" bump the driver's door mirror cover has dropped off. Not quite - but it is loose. Have read some forum posts and seen a couple of you-tube videos and have concluded its fixings can vary between using just one or more clips to one or more screws. My Golf is a MK4 2003 with a 53...
