    Hello everyone, I drive a 1985 VW Cabriolet and recently changed my speedometer cable with the one piece and took out the O2 box setup.

    Looking to upgrade some things, mainly make it as good as possible: Interior: nicer looking radio and replacement of the three gauges by VDO units. Maybe a nicer (leather) steering wheels.

    Hi there, We adopted a 1992 cabriolet as my son’s first car and it runs rich and the idle is very rough. The only way we can get it to run and be somewhat drivable is to remove the o2 sensor. We did replace it with no change in idle. As the 5th character in the title suggests it’s a 1992...

    Got a 1990 Cabriolet in a trade and need a couple things of advice. I can't get the roof to reach where it's supposed to on the passenger side to latch it.

Anyone every experienced this before on this car, if so, any idea on how to fix this? I tried cleaning the...

Would a combination of these two lower stress bars be beneficial or detrimental to handling and...
