    Hello, We recently bought a used Polo 1.4 Match DSG for my son and I was looking at the rear lights which seem to be very weak.

    Hello Everyone, I've got a 2012 Golf that I'd like to upgrade the back-up / reverse lights to LEDs that won't give the dreaded flash or error code on the dash. I tried the Sylvania 7440 ZEVO LED mini bulbs, although they worked; they gave me the error code. Any suggestions? I just need...

  7. TIGUAN OWNERS CLUB
    2016 Tiguan with automatic transmission seems to need adjustment . It tends to try to shift to forward when in reverse or in park and now has engaged even when stopped with just brake engaged. It feels like it is rocking back and forth. Checked fault codes but none appears relevant

    I was just wondering about the oem led tail lights..so my car has a euro switch in it and i heard that if you order the ones with rear fog lights, you don't get 2 reverse lights or something? Maybe someone could clarify this to me before buying such expensive tails:) Thanks!

    Good day. (I'm not very mechanically or technically minded). My 1964 Beetle SOMETIMES grates the gears when putting into reverse/ other times it slips in smoothly. Sometimes the gears also feel quite stiff; and I have recently noticed that even when the clutch is fully pressed in and car is in...

    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...
