    So I bought a 2008 6spd Gti a week ago. I knew that it had no boost and I assumed the worst case scenario so I took the turbo off and it turned out the turbo was fine. I noticed before I took the turbo off that the Blow off valve was jbwelded shut and the diverted valve was closed off too. Never...

    <p> Upgraded to 5spd in my 1976 Gas Rabbit. Both 020. Clutch doesn’t disengage. Finger intact on clutch arm shaft. Return spring works. Do I need a longer pushrod? Did I install the pressure disc inside out? Hope to avoid dropping the trans again. Thanks</p>

    This seal is leaking. A part number and it's correct name would be very helpful. My manual says it's a straightforward job to change it out. Some reassurance on that sentiment would be nice. Also, Should I expect to change the tran fluid or not? Cause I just did. Thanks guys!

    Hello I am having issues with my daughter's Jetta. In my daughter's words: "it has about 95000 miles on it and when I got in the car last night I smelled somewhat of a burning smell. I had a little bit of a difficulty shifting before I got on the highway but as soon as I was on the highway...

    Volkswagen originally provides equal weight drive shafts for the MK1 vehicles with manual transmissions (about 10# each). The longer passenger shaft is hollowed out so the weights will be equal on both sides. Some of the "bargain" axle assemblies have solid shafts on the passenger side. While...

    This is the first time I've owned a Rabbit, or anything VW for that matter, and I've enjoyed every minute of it. I've done quite a bit to it mechanically since purchasing in September of 2014. It's been a slow process, but I've received a lot of help through this forum that's really been...
  11. MK1 Rabbit Transmission
    I have picked up an 1989 5spd transmission for my 1985 5spd which has likely failed. From what I understand it should be a direct swap, although, I heard the 89 transmission does not have the upshift light.. no big deal for me! If anyone knows of any other differences pls let me know. My last...

    I am looking at buying an 85 Golf Diesel 5spd for $600. Not sure the full extent of the condition etc. I know where I can get a 84 Rabbit Diesel for $300, but the rabbit doesn't have the engine / trans / radiator / etc. The question. How much of the components will cross over. Engine /...
