  2. Golf VIII R
    Hi all, I’m looking to change pads and rotors soon, along with spark plugs. I wanted to save money and just stay with the stock equipment, but after looking at those parts in the catalog that would cost about $2000(why?? Does it really mean set of 2 when it says 1 with no indication of them...
  3. The Car Lounge
    Hi All, I've got two mk6s. Without shifting the subframe, you can only adjust toe on these cars. I've eyeballed it before and gotten it to a good level, but I want to take it further. I've seen on youtube the string box around a car and measuring from the front/back of each wheel to the string...

I called VW and they do not list the Controller separate from the Compressor. I was wondering...

  7. Golf IV & Jetta IV
    Basically the question in the title, has anyone tried this? From the product page windshield glue is basically polyurethane. Any tips for bonding with oem rubber better? My concerns are that it's maybe too thick for applying properly. The glue in pic is Sika track drive
  8. TDI and Diesel Forum
    I recently moved to Cleveland for a new job and just as I was finishing moving, my 2010 Jetta TDI started giving me trouble. Fortunately, it was a relatively easy fix, and the car is running fine, but I am looking to do several upgrades to the brakes and suspension and can't really do the work...
  9. Phaeton
    Hiya. Three months in, and my moment of truth Phaeton ownership has arrived. The driver side vent flap motor appears to have gone. From what I’ve read on previous threads it seems like a pretty cheap and straightforward job. I just had a couple of questions before I dive in: 1. Where are the...

    Fairly new to scene here but I have been digging around enough that I’m starting to get an idea of what I want to do with my 2.0L 8V AVH . But I’m totally lost on how to actually do any of it. I’m looking at the Techtonics 276 cam shaft, with at-least all new springs, I’m not sure what else...
