    air bag recall

    hey all. just picking your brains here. the NHSTA has a web site where you can input your VIN number to see about recalls for your vehicle. So, for example, i put in my VIN and no recalls were in existence. But if you go to this site...

    New head unit

    I posted here a few weeks back about aftermarket head units and recieved a number of responses. Thanks. I settled on a pioneer 8200nex and it sucks. Horrible reception as compared to vw oem radio. I went with the pioneer based on recommendations and reviews and am very unsatisfied with it so...

    takata Airbags and VW

    i see that the nhsta has put the 2010-2014 golf on it's list of cars that have takata bags in them and for recall (i'm assuming gti, as well, [tho they are not specifically mentioned] as it's a golf underneath it all). When contacting VW, i am told no VWs are being recalled. who to believe and...

    Console "blanks"

    I am thinking of putting in a couple usb ports where the " blanks " are in front of the shifter. How difficult is this to do? Do they just punch out or must they be cut out to install th usb port? Also, is wiring them easy or must the whole console be removed? Thanks

    question: recommended fuel

    maybe someone can clarify this for me: in VW's configurator, both for the GTI 2.0 and golf 1.8 engines it says recommended fuel 'regular' but advertised hp and torque ratings attained with 'premium' fuel. Fair enough. but i always thought our GTIs were supposed to use premium fuel only...

    Battery replacement and settings

    It has been since the late 90's since i have had to replace a battery. Luckily, i have never been left stranded. Back then my cars did not have elec locks, ab, tps, etc. If i repace my gti's battery before it dies completely, will i need to re-set all my car's settings? Thnx
