    My '02 Golf 4 Station Wagon (1.9 TDi) rear doors will no longer unlock and therefore I cannot open them to fix them. It started gradually, with intermittent functionality of the central locking. Some days they would lock, other days they wouldn't unlock. The rear left door went first and...

    Hello. About three days ago, I got a rough start in the morning in my 1.8t golf 4. It was sputtering and the acceleration was jerky, felt like it was cutting out on me constantly. Reeked of gasoline. Weirdly enough - replaced the throttle body with a junkyard one and that got rid of the gas...

    Hi, Has anyone ever used dbilas dynamics' flowmaster kit for the 1.9TDI? If so, how is the installation and is it worth the ~270Eur price? Are there any performance differences seeing how the stock intake that passes between the headlights and the battery is the size of a coin? If so, can anyone...

    Hello everyone, I have just installed comfort blinker kit on my '02 golf 4 1.9tdi. I connected everything correctly, but when checking it turns out that it's only the right side that flashes 3x. The other side only flashes 1x. I had already noticed before that if I gently press the hazard light...

    New car owner here, so could use some expert guidance. Our V5 has started making a non-stop grinding noise somewhere near the front and also the ABS is now constantly on whenever we brake. The grinding noise is there so long as the engine is on. This noise used to only be present if your try...

    Does anyone have a picture of the relay box for a 2000 Golf GL? I think the previous owner might have put some fuses in that werent supposed to go in this car, I have the 2.0 8v engine but it has a redline of about 5,000, but it won't hold there. I think there might be a fuse or relay/switch for...

    A few weeks ago I bought a MKIV Golf GL as a project car that I could work on and hopefully drive once I'm old enough. It cost $1000 and came with a cold air intake, tons of random pieces for the interior, an intercooler and a part for a turbo that I don't know what is called or what it does...

    Hi, So my A/C stopped working, it would kick on some times. I checked the fuses, relays and the fan module in the front left part of the car (under the battery). They are all good, some odd thing is that there is 9V on the plug always even if the car is of and with key in. It only disappear if I...

    I just installed a performance filter on my 1999 Golf mk4 1,9tdi. While doing this however, i stumbled across the vacuum line, and i have no idea what to do. Should i put the stock air box back in, and get some pipes and then glue the vacuum line to that? Or is there some way the vacuum line can...

    Hi, So recently I put electric windows and mirror's in my car, they are from Golf MK4 2.0L(APK) 1999. I put them in Golf MK4 2.0L(AQY) 2000. I sorted out the power and audio cables and connected the other cables according to this diagram: My car came with no electric windows, mirror's or...

    My AC compressor makes a horrible noise when turned on. So in other words, I'm stuck with just hot air, and it sucks to drive with the windows down while listening to music. Then diagnostics: The compressor makes a "motor bank" sound, and it scared me before I found out what it was. So my...

    So I got my first vw, a MK4 gti 1.8t, and put an intake and exhaust on it along with a coil pack upgrade. After getting a stage 1 tune I’m pretty sure I blew my charge pipe. Car sounds like it’s got a cam now struggles to stay running and the brakes are hard as a rock. Does this sound like it...

    I had to get a protective order against my husband to include the house and car (my name is on the title - 2000 Golf). He handed over the keys but now it won't start. He definitely did something to disable it, but probably not permanently. Any suggestions of simple things I can check myself...
