On US models, the temp gauge has an LED that blinks when the car overheats. You should be able to see your coolant leaving, either from a leak or out the...

I am sure that everyone has heard about the infamous coil pack problems. Well I just replaced mine 2 weeks ago and I am having the same problem again. It is...
I have a B4. I checked the coil pack by dowsing with water and no "light show". I check the wires and found a crack, fixed that and still misfire. Now I...
You need to isolate the problem instead of just throwing new, non-OEM parts at it. Clearly it worked in the past and something has failed. I tend to agree with...

Hello, I took my rear left wheel off last night because i heard muffled thud thud thud. So anyway the tire is definetely not wearing correctly. There seems...
I agree with Kelly. Check the plug wires, and the plugs, and then the ignition trigger. The software in these cars isn't Microsoft, it doesn't just become...
Its a bad ignition switch. Not the lock part, the electrical part. Its held to back side of the lock housing with one small screw, but it can be a pain to get...
I have heard of coil packs being bad right out of the box. About 2 years ago I had a coil pack replaced from the cracking, wet weather problem (I hadn't heard...

Sounds like a bad slave cylinder. Fluid leaking onto the clutch would explain slippage. How is the fluid level in reservoir? Its likely it stopped working...
Well all... I have gone through everything I could think of. I DO have an OBDII diagnostic device and have used it many times. I have even ran the chip to...
I can equip my 97 GLX with either Dunlop SP5000 or Toyo Proxes 4 for the same amount (about $130 CDN/tire). Has anyone experience with both of these tires?...

A friend of mine has 5ks on his Passat and I think they're great for what they are. Some complain that the tire is a bit noisy, however they are much quieter...
I put Hankooks of lightly different size that are :all season" but really a summer tire. I switch to steel rims and Pirelli Ice for winter. Best of both...
I have heard that the proxes get mixed reviews, no personal experience... The Dunlops were a pretty good tire for my car (92 SLC) however they wore down a lot...
