Me and a mechanic friend just did a big job on my 1992 VR6 Corrado. We replaced the timing chains, tensioners, guide rails, lifters inside the head and head...
did u reset the oil pressure supplied chain tensioner or just put it back in? if you just put it back in then there is your problem, the chain is too tight. ...
Bad News. My VR6 died today. I was driving down interstate 90 going east with cruise set @ a nice 85 when i started slowing down, put my foot on the pedal and...
i hate the green color on my speedometer when i drive at night. can you change the color of it, short if putting a new panel in? can i buy a ligh bulb that...
Yes you can change the color. There is a piece of green "film" in front of the bulbs, that you can remove and replace with another color. You have to remove...
What exactly does a lightened flywheel do? Does it add horsepower and if so how much(for instance a 12 pound flywheel)? Also does it make the gears rev out...
... The purpose of the flywheel is to maintain the momentum of the crank, essentially. Heavy flywheels rev more slowly, but stall less often and have smoother...
From what I've read on the VW Vortex, a lightened flywheel serves 2 purposes (at least): 1. Allows your engine to rev more freely... i.e., it'll rev-up (and...

Actually the diagnostic connector on the 1995 GTI-VR6 (OBD-I) is the same as the 16-pin connector on my 98 GTI-VR6 (OBD-II). I believe that all mk3's had that...
Yeah, I remember the 2x2 thing, but I thought the connectors were different for the different systems, too. My bad sir :-) That brings up a question: can you...
Not if you do the chip and only the chip, not really. The gain is small enough that you will only see it on the dyno (or the butt-dyno :-) Now if you were...
Ben, I'm not sure if your car has the "drive-by-wire" throttle, but if it is, i have heard that there definitely is a noticeable difference when chipping. The...
