I have a 81 vw rabbit cabriolet and I was into doing the vr6 conversion . The clutch I have is brand new. It's a 2.8 engine Sachs (o.e.m)engine code...
Amusing or not...some areas of the country generate a lot more flats than others. It is a sad commentary that VW0fA apparently is doing nothing to support this...

Any advice on how to get access to the rear strut towers in order to change the rear shocks. I have already installed Bilstein HDs in the front. Great...
I did this on my B3 VR6... and I assume it's at least similar in the B4. You need to remove the padded seat 'fillers' on either side of the rear seat. Then,...
My 2001 Jetta VR6 is approaching 60,000 miles. As part of the state inspection being performed today, I'm having the four original Eagle RSA tires replaced....
$50 isn't too bad (especially from the dealer). I can't say it is a waste of money since I feel it provides the owner with some peace of mind that their new...
Thanks. To the dealer's credit, they *did* say that as long as the tires are rotated regularly, alignment isn't a big deal; but they still recommended it. I'm...
Well... where are you from and what dealer are you using? They sound very reasonable and you might as well spread the word about your positive experience. One...
Hi guys, Since my car (98GTIVR6) looks pretty old by now with all those new cars with big allow wheels, I'm planning to get 17' wheels from a Beetle 1.8T Sport...
I'm not sure of the distance between my fender and the ground (since I'm at work), but I can give you some suggestions. If you decide to go 17", I would...
Aldo, your question is complicated because it doesn't address how much the car has been lowered. You should be able to run them but a 225/45 is going to be...

Hello to all you knowledgable people I currently drive a 1998 GLX VR6 Jetta. My exhaust is starting to go around that massive resonator(at the welds) I live in...
Hi everybody, I got this readout from the guys from autozone. does this just mean the O2 infront of the Cat is bad and needs replacing or something else.. ...
Hi all, I have heard various stories involving this common oil leak on the intake hose halfway inbetween the MAF and the TB. Is this leak enough of a hassle...
How does the 99 or newer differ from previous clutch installations? My '96Jetta VR6 had a clutch pedal creaking problem that they changed some bracket under a...
Replacing the entire breather assembly will probably last 20k miles before it starts leaking again. Your options are as follows: 1) Replace the entire PCV...
I recently bought a 2000 Jetta GLX VR-6 with only 22,000 miles on it. The motor seems kinds noisey till it warms up. It sounds like upper engine noise, maybe...
Try rolling the window down (I know its cold) when you first start the car, if you can hear the noise, depress the clutch pedal to see if it goes away....
