How'd you find the forum?: I have a 5 speed Beetle Turbo that will not shift into second gear and I want to fix it, looking for cheap and effective ways that you can help me with! I have a feeling the transmission needs to be replaced and I want to know if anyone thinks a garage with a basic-advanced set of tools can handle the job. The engine was rebuilt about 30k ago and there is about 138k on the chassis. I don't want to let this car go to the junkyard, and I feel like there is a lot of potential. It is not my daily driver and I wouldn't mind using it as a future project/track car. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK, I will take any advice!
HI I'm new to the VW scene, and would like to learn about my new car. I just picked up a MK4 jetta 1.8T. The mods it has are K&N cold air intake, Eurojet street front mount intercooler, Forge adjustable diverter valve, Giac chip, boost gauge, Bilstien adjustable suspension, and 2.5 inch exhaust with side outlet. I want to turn this thing into a monster, and i know you guys can help.

My name is Curtis, I live in SoCal. I've had my Golf TDI for about three years and it finally got to expensive to take it to a mechanic for maintenance. So started doin my own work and fell in love with my garage and car all over again. I joined the forum for more info on transaxels as the car is beginning to show signs of needing a new one.
Welcome to the forum guys, hope to see you around! If you have any questions, PM me!
We also are having our October ride of the month that you can find in our Member Rides section! Thanks for looking and I look forward to hearing from some of you!

How'd you find the forum?: Trolling the WWW while looking for the perfect (cheap and mechanically reliable) Westfalia. I once owned a '60s vintage Beetle (AC via rust holes in the floor!); then a '73 Westy in the 70s. Then a long blank period of non-memorable other vehicles. Now I plan to ramble all over in a new (to me) Westy - visiting friends and exploring great rocks.
More later.
