I have a red 2009 Jetta s that shoots the rpm’s way to high and locks it up there. It’s an automatic and I’ve taken it to the shop several times and nobody can tell me what’s wrong with it.

I have a 2008 GTI with around 120,000 miles. Recently the car dash board started flashing where the gear indicator is located. The car would then lose power and slow down. I would stop, restart the car and went about my way. I stopped at a transmission place and they couldn’t get an error code...

I have an Alltrack with about 20,000 miles. It started shifting really hard recently. It reminds me of the problem (recall or advisory) I had with my 200s Golf (Rabbit). Sometimes it shifts hard, sometimes when I try to speed up quickly it hesitates between first and second gear. That...

Hi there, I have a 2008 Volkswagen Rabbit where several of the gears are not shifting properly, and over-revving at times. I've tried the reset transmission trick that's been popular on these forums, but at this point it's not getting the job the done. The car has 161k miles. I've considering...

Today after coming home from my usual commute I got to a stop light and when I went to drive through my car wouldn’t move. My drivers side axle moves back and fourth...

The Issue: The vw golf starts and runs perfectly fine. I have been offered to purchase this car for 600 dollars and I’m seriously thinking about it. I was told that it has a bad Torque Converter which is the reason for the issue. What happens is... If you have the car in park then you can fire...

Hey all, I have a 2012 Jetta 2.0 with a 6 speed 09G automatic transmission. I'm currently going through every website possible trying to find the transmission oil level pipe that goes right above the transmission drain plug. I was hoping to get some help here. I would highly appreciate any...

So I bought myself a 2003 Jetta GL Wagon, 5 speed. I welcome all new friends and those who know where to get parts for good prices lol. This is my first VW and it's a bit of a mechanic special, but it runs and the motor and transmission are solid, as well as the frame.

I’ve always been into cars and i recently came across an 82’ Rabbit 1.6L diesel and it’s been sitting for about 15-20 years but it’s been cranked a few times since it’s been sitting im really considering purchasing the car being that it’s listed for very cheap and i know it’s gonna take some...

I am a 28 year veteran of long haul tractor trailer experience. I have never used electric brakes before, and have purchased a 2018 Atlas. I will be mainly pulling a travel trailer around BC, so it will be mountainous conditions. As I am used to air brakes, what are the differing factors when...

We have a 2018 Tiguan that has developed a problem. First the first 7-8 mos. and about 7-8K miles it was perfect. Then, upon acceleration from a standing stop, it stumbles, or seems to bog down, rather than smoothly accelerating. On a couple of occasions, we had plenty of time to cross a...

Hello All, I'm looking for an automatic trans from a mk1 or 2. I would prefer a diesel but they are much harder to find. Not sure if the converter is different. I also have a 5 speed if someone wants to do a conversion. I could also use information if you have some to share. Thx everyone.
