i just bought a jetta.
i LOVE it.
I know nothing about cars though, but i want to learn.
ive made some friends through my car, and they are helping, and this forum helped out a lot, just searching through the internet.
but anyways, heres my car.

2004 VW Jetta GLS 20v 1.8t




the first few things im going to buy are a Forge DV valve, a cold air intake and a new chip. I dont know where else to start haha.

Feel free to give suggestions, or just make fun of me, because usually, i wont know what im talking about, thats why i joined this forum. take me under your wing, help me out!

nice car, good luck. Those mods seem like a good start, put an exhaust on there too.

Nice Car! Go ahead and buy the Bentleys Manual and familiarize yourself with every system on the car by actually reading it like a novel. -That will eliminate any intimidation you feel about working on certain parts of your car.

I usually highlight all chapters/pages in the Bentley's which pertain to my flavor of car -Doing this will save you an incredible amount of time later.

Nice car, have a bora myself also trying to make slight mods to it. There is no light in the centre bottom of my dash that should light up the air and heat knobs. I checked the fuse but that is not the prob, I am not sure if it does light up, can anyone help?
