    Hi all, I'm a bit new to this. I purchased a 07 Rabbit just a few days ago, and I'm assessing all that could be wrong with it. One of the issues I'm seeing is that when I put the car into reverse. As I reverse, the brake stiffens up, as though its power braking stops working. It still brakes...

    Hello All, I'm in the process of replacing the head gasket on my 84 rabbit 1.6d. I pulled the head and noticed all my valves have cracks in between.

    Hi Please have a look at the images to help me identify my water leak. I have a Golf 1.9 TDI MK5. The zoomed in image shows where the leak is actually coming from. It is coming from a hole (not a crack or corrosion hole but a preexisting one) around the back of the engine. It shoots out like...
