David, Why do I want a TD engine for my QSW? Bio-Diesel. Read about it on the net. If you don't want a diesel engine after reading about it, then you must own...
And with that I've decided I can't do the QSW TDI. I've decided a better car for me is a Pinto, lowered, with neon underneath, a flame job starting at the gas ...
I doubt they stop with the diesels, too. They are very popular in my area. A sales guy at the stealership told me they are going to put them in the Passats...
While replacing my antenna (for the second time... at least I knew what to do this time around), I disturbed the sleeping speedometer cable and now my...
Joe 321 957 803 AF shows on one of my ETKA versions as a single cable from tranny to speedo (euro version) so it should work. ... From: "joe ragole"...
The 88 QSW uses a one-piece cable as well. The trick would be to to sure the transmission end is the same - if so you should be fine. Damian Quantum Syncro -...
Hi... If they do not want to pick it up, then I need a couple parts. I need the tail lights and front grill if all the pins are still attached. I could also...
Hi, Just wanted to say hi and kinda introduce myself to this group. I'm up in the PNW and I'm about to pick up an '87 QSW. Wanted all the advice or help that...

I noticed this noise a few weeks ago, but it seemed to have gone away for a little while, now it's back and worse. I get this clunking/thunking sound coming...
Sounds like a motor mount, but it could be the inner CV joint. I once had the bolts on the passenger side inner CV joint loosen up. It made a clunking noise...

I'd take a look at the engine and tranny mounts Nik. Another thought too would be to check the exhaust supports. You can get all kinds of alarming sounds from...
