I’ve been having a problems w/ a groundhog climbing in my engine bay. Went away for vacation and came back to find the an orange bulb light and red steering wheel on. I drove the car and was fine. Lights work and no steering issues. Found a very chewed wire. Ran fine yesterday but today it won’t...

I’ve been trying to decide on coilovers, and found these. Anyone have experience w/ them? https://www.ecstuning.com/b-godspeed-parts/godspeed-mono-ss-coilover-set-adjustable-dampening/mss0400~god/

Has anyone done this and had good results? Sure beats buying a whole new intake manifold for $300-$400 from the dealer or a dealer quote of $700. Any tips on this? http://www.dieselgeek.com/P2015_Repair_Bracket_p/egr-p2015-711ag.htm

Does this really work with our cars? I am a little skeptical.

Lately my car has been running rough, but no cel. It seems to hesitate on acceleration too. I have about 60k on the car now. I haven't done a tune up yet, because a local VW dealership told me that it is a 60k service, but from what I see online is that a lot of people do it at 40k. I was...

Today I had a Charger that looked and sounded stock next to me at a light. When the road was wet, and from a rolling start we were equal. My GTI only has a Neuspeed p-flow, which basically does nothing but make noise. I am guessing this Charger was a V6, which I guess is close 0-60 as a GTI. I...

My wife was in her 11' JSW making a right turn and a douche BMW driver tried to pass her on the right. This was a hill and bend in the road, so he claimed he thought she was making a left. This jerk yelled at my wife too and it really pissed me off because she pregnant and due tomorrow. Luckily...

Today I had a guy at a traffic light who wanted to race me. I didn't want to because, well street racing is illegal. So I let the guy go, he got pissed and tried to road rage with me because of that I guess. He pulled in front of me a few times and slammed on the brakes. I just let him go and...

I think my clutch (6SM) may be slipping, but this doesn't seem normal. Basically in 1st and 2nd gears when accelerating I have some major hesitation around 3k RPM. Sometimes I will hit the throttle to 3k, shift, get nothing, then my car launches forward. It is very different than lag or rev...

I have a 6SM and have been hearing that loud noise that sounded like a defective flywheel. I first brought it into my dealer around 30k and they couldn't find anything. It got worse over time, so I had them look at it. They said the found "hot spots on the clutch and flywheel" which indicates...

I'm just curious on VW cars only. What have you owned besides a MkVI? I'll start: Now: 2010 GTI 6SM Previous: 2008 Rabbit 2.5 5SM 1998 GTI 2.0 5SM 1995 Jetta VR6 5SM 1982 Jetta 1.6D 5SM

I have had a debate with my friend about which of the 2 cars I have owned on which was faster. My friend thinks my GTI now is faster, but I think the Jetta might have been. GTI: 2 door 6SM P-flow 3100 lbs? Jetta VR6 5SM Lighten flywheel Autotech 262 cams P-flow New south intake gasket (lower...

I just joined this forum and wanted to introduce myself. I have owned many VWs over the years. I bought this 2010 GTI CSM 6SPM as a used demo car with 13k on it in 2011 and it is by far my favorite stock VW I have ever owned. I of course will want a little more out of it, but I'm not looking to...
