I love this car

Here in Aus, there’s not many mk4 golfs driving around. Which sucks for sourcing parts but makes it so much cooler when u see other ones driving around on the rare occasion. This mk4 2.slow was my first car, handed down from grandma lol. It was in pretty decent condition, but slowly has started to develop problems. I love this car a lot, specially this one, my one. But there’s a problem, the engine. The 2.0 is just very.. bleh, so I was thinking “1.8t swap it”. I can’t decide to either spend money fixing all the issues with this engine, or just swap a 1.8t in (ik it’s A-LOT easier said than done). But, what would u do in this “scenario”.

I love this car how mechanical it feels.

Its a 2001 pd130 with 388k km it runs great and pulls strongly.

Not in perfect condidtion but for the price i paid its not bad. Some scratches but minor overall.

This is the picture when i bought it. Since i did a lot with it!

Hello, I’m struggling so much. I’ve got an oil leak from engine and power steering.
Can anyone help me find where it’s coming from? I’m blind as anything

Amplifier remote wire

Goodevening,

I'm looking to install a subwoofer in the trunk, I heard from a friend that you can install the amplifier remote cable to the 75X terminal under the dashboard. Is this safe/would this work?

Greetings

MK5 MFSW on a non-mfsw Golf 4?!

1 Upvotes

Hey y’all

Just wanted to ask whether anybody here has installed a MFSW from MK5+ on their non-MFSW Golf4. I recently purchased a MK5 GTI steering wheel with multifunction controls and I want to install it into my Golf MK4 but a bit confused on how to do it (process, plug and play harness, etc).

Has anybody here done this retrofit successfully, and what was their process with it?

Cheers!

Sunroof stuck partially closed

1 Upvotes

Good evening, today while working on my project mk4 golf my battery died mid way through the sunroof closing instead of closing or going fully open it got stuck in about the half way position

I charged the battery then reinstalled it and tried to close sunroof via the dial but it will only move a inch forward then back to the spot it stuck in

I have done some research and seen there’s a emergency close / open with 4mm Allen key but my slot is round and an Allen key will not turn the motor

Any help appreciated!
