  1. Golf/GTI VI
    Hi guys I’ve got a 2009 1.4 tsi 122bhp caxa, I’ve got quite a major oil leak and been trying to find the source for a couple weeks and when I removed the throttle body I found what seems to be an excessive amount of oil in the intake manifold. Anyone got ideas of what could have failed please ...
  2. Jetta/GLI VI
    Afternoon all! Just recently purchased a used '16 Jetta Sport w/ 49k for my daughter's first car. Unfortunately, I'm VW stupid. Car is in great shape except for a few minor things. #1 - Neither one of our iPhones can find the car's bluetooth to connect to, we've watched several videos and...
  3. Jetta VII
    The lower timing belt cover for the GLIs (2.0 TSI) is susceptible to corrosion (for the rust belt) at the lowest point near the oil pan. I discovered this on my 19 GLI after 2 winter seasons. I believe this is either caused by poor paint coverage at the edge of the part, or electrolysis...
  4. Golf/GTI VI
    Hi there, I have a 2010 Golf TSI 1.4 SE and I have white smoke that smells acrid coming from the front of the engine bay near the turbo. It comes after the engine is coming up to temperature but usually goes once the engine is at temp (didn't the last time), engine has never overheated. I have...
  5. Jetta/GLI VI
    Hey everyone! Looking to mod up my Jetta, and trying to work out if I share an engine with the GLI model. I can’t find the GLI engine code anywhere. Every site I’ve looked it has the exact same stats and everything. 155kw/210hp output, 4cyl, turbo, exact same. Would anyone be able to help with...

The head gasket is going and it's about to blow up. It was smoking the past few days. At this point, it's my only vehicle and I have...

I have a 2013 VW CC 2.0T that I seem to have an oil leak and its getting in my spark plug wells and on my driveway. I am having the hardest time actually finding a gasket for this.

    I have posted a video here: AC is not running, I have new plugs from 10k miles ago, fresh oil change, new air filter, cleaned MAF, new brakes and rotors (I know that means nothing here, just keeping my car in tip top shape as best I can), PCV valve changed at 55k just to replace it because a...
  11. Passat (B7)
    Recently my 1.8 TSI Passat took a dump, and the cause was narrowed down to leaking fuel injectors. All 4 injectors were replaced, along with an oil change, and now the car runs, but still sends code P0087 for low rail pressure. A diagnosis at a local mechanic told me to replace the fuel pump, so...

    Vehicle started overheating under a load, turn heater on full blast gets it back to normal range. No leaks found, thought maybe it is a bad thermostat, so replaced the waterpump and t-stat since it is all 1 untit. Used the coolant VAICO VA-013 mixed 50/50. Used GEBA waterpump/tstat assembly. Got...

    Hi all, I have a 2015 golf TSI 1.4L. I recently replaced my coils with Raceland classics and put new rims and tires (225/40/18). However, I’ve developed a rattle that occurs when driving at low speeds over small frequent bumps. The sound seems to be consign from the front passenger. Any thoughts?

    This is my first post, so forgive me for any lack of understanding if I do not follow the forum rules to the tee. I thought I would share my experience about attempting to change the timing chain on my 2013 VW CC 2.0 TSI CCTA* engine. I am not a professional/qualified technician by any means...

    Here’s the issue: When I start the car, the infotainment screen and all the buttons & dials around turn on, but the screen itself stays frozen on this (pic below). It will go black and then turn back into this screen every 30ish seconds or so. It isn’t responding to touch, I’ve tried the reset...
