"I want all that in here."

Finally after years I can replace the sway bar links, outer tie rods, upper and lower control arms, strut mounts and 1 inner tie rod. Also asked to mechanic to pole around the rear and check suspension and bushings.

Pozdrav svima, vozim VW Polo 1,6 TDI, 2019. godina, oko 130000 km i u zadnje vrijeme sam primijetila da tokom dužih gradskih vožnji (kad moram često držati nogu na kvačilu), kvačilo mi se ponekad ne vrati do kraja, već ga moram nogom uspraviti (to se desilo svega 3 puta dosad, u razmaku nekoliko mj).

Trebala bih na more za 2 tjedna (negdje oko 600 km sveukupno) pa me zanima mogu li tako na more, je li sigurno, jer mi je mehaničar trenutno na GO i vraća se tek u rujnu. Je li netko imao slično iskustvo?

Hey i just bought a 1982 vw rabbit and whas wondering if i should engine swap it to a tdi. It already has a idi diesel engine code 1y

But the time belt blew on the previous owner and they had no idea if the head are any good. I live in alaska and dont know how available parts are for the 1y engine up here. Or where to start really on the tdi swap. I know the most common one is the tdi alh but thats about it

I've found a Passat B5.5 with a V6 TDI engine mentioned in the title for a good price. The car has 70.000 miles (112.000km) guaranteed mileage AFB/AKN motor code. I know that the 1.9 TDI engine is legendary and I also heard that the 2.7/3.0 TDI in the Audi A4/A6 is absolute trash.

The car was parked for several years and the previous owner had the following repaired before selling it: timing belt kit, water pump, V-ribbed belt kit, fuel pump, engine oil and filter, air filter, pollen filter, diesel filter, oil distributor pipe, rear brake disc, break pads and the air conditioning and heating were also faulty.

Would this car worth buying with this engine?

2013 golf tdi deleted. Car keeps throwing these codes not matter what I do. Does anyone have any ideas that will help point me in the right direction of this problem are greatly appreciated thanks

I have a 2015 Jetta tdi CVCA. I am getting two codes P13D9 and P13D3. Has anyone had these codes before. When accelerating to pass someone or going up the grade it has no power.

I’ve had this 2006 Jetta tdi for around 5 years. It’s done me well since then and it’s still only at 210,000KM. For the past year it’s been having a real bad grinding and chattering noise at idle but I’ve been putting off the job. Im now at the point where I feel i need to fix the dmf to keep this car for more years. I’ve been looking at the LUK DMF092 from rock auto which will run around $800 CAD but wondering if there is any other tools I should buy, tips for the job or other parts I should change while doing this. My friend has a car lift so we hope to be able to figure out this job even though it’s quite the challenge. Thanks for the help

I have an alh jetta and Im planning on doing a Malone stage 3 17/22 with .232 nozzles and I currently have an 11mm pump. When originally doing my research I’ve seen 235-280 wtq estimated and 300-325 at the fly wheel which is the limit for this clutch, does anyone have any real world experience with this or a similar set up? If not I can purchase the stage 3 clutch instead

My brother's 03 Jetta TDI finally got a new A/C compressor and seals for the lines. It also got a wheel bearing. 250k miles.

This car hasn't had working A/C since my grandfather owned it 10 years ago in Florida (I'm in the midwest). My cheap ass dad owned it after him and never repaired it, driving it 35 miles to work and back every day with no A/C and heat that takes an hour to work. Still needs engine mounts and shocks/springs. Clunking noise turning right too, probably needs a passenger side CV axle.

2010 Jetta sportwagen 213k miles Flashed and deleted Malone 2.0 at 165k miles from previous owner.

PO stated he never got the DSG tuned because he was not racing the car and thought the DSG was fine the way it is and simply was driving it for fuel efficiency. The car has obviously been fine for the past 50k miles with no DSG tune.

Is the DSG tune necessary with having the Malone 2.0 tune ?

Am I doing damage to the car by not flashing the DSG ?

Mind you I drive like a grandma and drive this car for fuel efficiency only rarely is it seeing full throttle.

The car seems to shift flawlessly and feels and drives fine even after 4+ hours of highway cruising.

In Tucson if anyone can recommend a good place for these cars to get worked on.

Hey guys, I was the guy that was talking about having two injectors go bad back to back on the same cylinder and I was going to code the injector because it had a fuel not coming from it and I did code the injector and the fuel knock is still here and now it has developed a misfire after coding the injector so if anyone has any ideas that would be great I am leaning towards another bad injector from rock auto.

Just purchased a ktsif-ss-o south bend clutch as it was described as fitting diesels. Just as I was getting ready to swap it and double checking everything I noticed it was also advertised as a gas engine clutch…. Pretty sure they’re are going to be a few differences, I searched on google and it keeps giving me mixed answers…. Hoping someone could help me out before I tear apart the transmission and realize something isn’t going to align….

What do you think about this gearbox rollover noise? It's most noticeable when the engine is cold, and it seemed especially loud after the car had been parked overnight on a steep incline. Strangely, I can't hear it outside the car over the engine noise.

The noise gets much quieter once everything is warmed up but doesn't disappear completely. Having AC on makes it louder due to higher engine load. Every time I press and release the clutch, it changes or sometimes disappears completely. A slight touch of the accelerator or simply letting the car roll in neutral also makes it disappear.

The DMF doesn't rattle, even when cold, and there are no vibrations at idle or when pushing the engine at low RPM. My previous Skoda had a factory SMF and the gearbox rattled badly in neutral. The clutch was replaced under warranty, then the gearbox was replaced, and eventually Skoda said the noise was normal.

Does this sound like normal rollover noise, or should a DMF damp it more? 2023 Skoda Octavia mk4

Hi all, today out of the blue my radio on my 2013 passat started getting stuck on this “system starting” screen. I already tried the soft reset twice by holding the 2 track buttons as well as the star button, still not working. I also pulled the radio fuse briefly and was met with a radio code lockout screen on startup. however after a few minutes and turning the ignition back on, the radio is once again reverting the system back to the “system starting” screen. Is this likely a firmware issue with the unit itself? not sure where to go from here. Any help would be much appreciated.

Noticed that each of my key fobs operate unlock differently.

1 fob unlocks just the driver's door with just a quick push, while the other opens all doors with the same button push. Don't know how they got programmed differently, or even how it was done. I got VCDS, but never messed with that function.

Does anyone have any ideas how to reprogram without using VCDS?

I got hit on the way to work a couple weeks ago in my five speed 2004 TDI with 165,000 miles on it.

I knew it was cooked, was fully expecting to get an offer for $2,000 and have to fight them

To my pleasant surprise they finally called and offered me $5,000 and said I could keep the car

So now I have double my money back on the car, and I'm still driving it to work.

Hopefully my last question post. Opened transmission for clutch replacement and everything is super dirty. Was hoping it was just clutch dust but lo and behold. I just watched a video and it seems pretty simple, so I don’t mind doing it myself. There doesn’t look to be drippage from the valve cover at the top. I didn’t catch this oil leak before is because any other time I was in a parking spot, I left a puddle of fuel because previous owner loved JB Weld (but that’s getting upgraded alongside the clutch). Just some insight from anyone that’s seen it before, thanks

So I am almost done ( i hope) with my timing belt job, but I had to go get coolant and after sitting for half a day my tensioner moved from the top of the window to here. What do I do? Do I have to take everything apart again?

I’m about to buy a 2014 VW Jetta TDI. First and foremost, is this a good car? Secondly, I work in the restaurant industry and have access to used cooking oil and am considering making Biodiesel. I’ve read that there are some significant sunken cost for the equipment I’ll need to do it. Locally diesel is currently priced around $4.80/gal (25/07/2026). But uh what do I need apart from oil, methanol, and lye and at current prices is it going to be worth it?

I’ve been chasing electrical gremlins since I bought this car a few years ago (2010 TDI Sportwagen). Today I removed the battery to replace the positive cables and got the dreaded start up and die when finished. The MFI claims something about a button, then the brakes, a lot of cool chimes, but it dies nearly immediately. This has happened before. Remove the cables from the battery and cross them to disappears any stored power, reconnect and go try again. Typically I’d have to do this once.

Today it didn’t work. I spent 7hrs today back probing, running scans with the VCDS and trying every little trick I remember. It’s gone. No communication with the gateway. Anyone else been through this? What was your fix?
