Hi Everyone, I have a 1977 Super Beetle and I had some issue with it starting. I replaced that battery and all summer long it started like 1977. Recently (twice) I have driven it around and then all of the sudden on my way home it won't start. Nothing. I get red lights, etc... but it won't...

I got a couple of free gallons of Mobile One full synthetic 15W-50 oil from a friend. It says it's for API Service SN, not a diesel designation. It would make a great summer oil. Can I use it in my daily driver 1.6 NA engine. Normally I run Chevron Delo 400 15-W-40. Comments please.

So i bought my 2007 2.0T jetta used last summer. When I first purchased the vehicle the fan only worked on one speed (MAX), which I was ok with. After a few months the fan stopped working altogether. I did some research and assumed that this was a problem with the blower resistor. So, I ordered...

Always interesting to see what people do to their cars, make for some interesting discussion and conversation. Took it out of winter storage on Sunday, removed OEM wheels and installed summer ones. Out for a drive along St-Lawrence river.

Hi there, first post so I dont know what to expect but im on my last option now.. Last year me and the girls went to cornwall in our 1972 VW bay for the month, I insured myself through Adrian Flux for one month at (obviously) a fraction of the cost it would of cost me for the year as I own a...

Hello everyone I have a 2003 gti vr6 2.8 I've been having issues with my AC for the whole summer and need it fixed. The ac condenser doesn't have any leaks, the fan is kicking in but still blowing hot air. Any help would be appreciated. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have owned my 2009 Tiguan for (2) years now and it has always made a whiney noise from the rear end. I have taken it to VW and they "guessed" it to be the fuel pump and said that this is common with the Tiguan and dismissed it at that. I am wanting to do some traveling this summer but am just...

As the title says, im looking for a complete wiring harness for my 81 diesel rabbit. The kid who had it before me did some very poor wiring for a radio and speaker set up, aka melted wires and such. Car runs and drives now but looking for one to swap into it in the summer so its more reliable...

Hey everyone, I'm going to start changing my own oil instead of spending 100 dollars to have the dealership do it. I was just wondering what kind of oil I should use for summer & winter months. My used 08.rabbit didn't come with an owners manual, so i wasn't sure. No mods or anything yet, bone s...

Mobil 1 44999 Turbo Diesel Truck 5W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil is supposed to be a good product. I regularly use Mobil 1 5-30 for high mileage engines. Will using this instead cause any problems? Am considering it because of all the driving on gravel and dirt roads which put more strain on...

The bearings are once again giving signs of needing to be replaced. This time I'm going to replace the entire assembly. Basically seems like a bolt off-bolt on operation. Will I need to get a new alignment as a result? Will be replacing the front struts with springs as a unit later this...
