    I was just wondering what problems are common with ‘16 Jettas once they get to 100k+ miles. I’ve tried to keep up on maintenance as much as I can, but around the time it hit 100k I started to notice some problems that were new. Rough idling with rev jumps, hard knock when shifting from park or...

    Hey everyone. I recently purchased 2 pairs of Alpine SPS-600C speakers to install in my '04 Golf. Here's the link to the speakers: Alpine SPS-600C Type-S 6-3/4" component speaker system — fits in 6-1/2" or 6-3/4" openings at Crutchfield.com. Everything else in the audio system is the stock...

    I just picked up a 1995 golf and it will not start. The guy I bought it from said it needs a new ECU. The engine will turn over but there is no spark or fuel(spark plugs are dry). The guy said that it was stalled and then never started again. The driver side door handle and latch is removed...

    My Hella Celis rings were giving me problems for a while. They would work most of the time, then out of nowhere the left or right rings would go out (never both at the same time tho). If I flicked the euroswitch back n forth enough sometimes they would both turn on until the next time I...

    Hi, I'm thinking about buying a 2000 Jetta GLS 1.8 Liter. I can get it cheap but it needs a timing belt and is at this point undrivable. My friend is a car guy and says he can change it for me for free but he wants to know if it is an "Interface Motor"? I don't really know what that means so I...

    My GTI VR6 check engine coolant light went off last night. So I stopped the car at a gas station nearby to add coolant to the engine because the car was overheating and smoking. After adding the coolant, I tried to start my car but the battery died. Also the coolant was leaking out the bottom...

    I have a 95 Golf and the engine turns over so I know it's not a starter, and there is a spark and the gas is getting to the spark plugs so I know it's not the spark plugs or fuel pump. The people I bought it from thought it was the fuel pump so they took it out, turns out the fuse was blown so I...

  16. MK3
    Hey whoever reads this I have a couple questions so bear with me. Firstly, I was just wondering if aftermarket parts put on a mk3, such as a sway bar, coilovers, bumpers, etc. are interchangable on the mk4 model or is it just with the mk3? Secondly, about after how many kms does a golf gti start...
