  1. Golf New To The Forum / Frequently Asked Questions
    Onto or second Golf. So thought it was time to join up. The new golf is a 1.5TI EVO 150 R LINE. So far very impressed with it, lots of features our old 1.6 blue motion didn’t have. If you see a 19 plate in the Argyll area of the West Coast of Scotland, it could be me !

    My 2012 CC started making a "groaning" noise when Im turning the wheel to park. Not when moving so I don't believe it a CV joint. Could this be the upper strut mount bushing?
  3. Jetta / Bora MK3 / 1992-1998
    I need to replace an inner CV boot or the short shaft on a 96 Automatic Jetta. I've done them many times on a standard transmission with no problem. Can't remove the short shaft because the joint is too big for the hole. Looks like I need to drop the transmission to make room. Any suggestions?
