I ordered a PCV valve, supposedly for the 2.0L engine (for a 2004 New Beetle). It looks like a 3" diameter black plastic disc, about 1/2" thick, with two hose ports sticking out of it. I've scoured the engine and the web looking for any indication of where this thing lives but can't figure it...

New owner of 2019 Tiguan and i've noticed the defroster front/rear does not come on when using the remote start feature. Is there a way to enable this? The temperatures in my area have been in the low 30's in the mornings when remote starting. I tried leaving the defroster on and temp at 78 F...

So I've recently came into possession of a 79 rabbit rally edition with the 1.5l diesel engine. I am having trouble getting it to stay running let alone starting. I've replaced the battery, starter, alternator, glow plugs, fuel pump and wiring.. could cleaning the Injectors help? Willing to...

1981 Rabbit, 1.7L CIS Fuel is definitely getting to the 'fuel distributor' because I had a leak in the cold start valve fuel line and fuel was abundant. That is, I'm confident everything before the fuel distributor is pressurized. However, the car was not starting (this is after a full engine...

Hi I’m a new member to this group and I’m after some advise, I have a 2006\56 vw Touareg 3.0 tdi v6 and recently been having trouble with it starting. Mostly cold start.

Hi there I've recently bought a phaeton 3.2 off a friend who had starting issues. I've managed to find 2 broken wires from the kessy which I've sorted out. It turns over but will not start. After further investigation I've discovered the but pressing the 167 relay in and holding it it will start...

2007 Rabbit starting to show electrical gremlins? With headlight switch on car running and with headlight switch on car not running: No license plate lights but bulbs are OK. No lower door sill lights (not sure they are even lights maybe just reflectors? Little red "L" shaped cover?) Been over...

Hi all: Have an 07 rabbit 4D that I bought used. It had an aftermarket set of HIDs installed that have been giving me nothing but trouble. Sometimes neither side will light - a day later, no problem again! (Starting to wonder if it's actually a switch or the central electronics, but still...

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I've been searching for a repair manual for my 2008 Passat. I'm approaching 73,000 miles and she's starting to show a little age. I'd like to take her off the road for a bit and begin restoring her to her old glory, and I'm shocked there are no Haynes...

I replaced the fuel pump in my 2007 (2.5 gas) about 10,000 miles ago. I did go with an aftermarket version. After several dealership visits and several $$$ to get pressure/filter straight it finally seemed to get sorted. Has been running just fine but the last few weeks I'm starting to get the...

So strange. My 1980 Rabbit Diesel has been running everyday with no issues. Tried starting this afternoon and I noticed the glow plug light didn't illuminate. Still waited about 20 seconds before turning the key. Car starts (starter whirls like normal, very quickly), but can't get the engine to...
