Found an old box of parts. Inside is a SPEC aluminum flywheel. Unsure on what model at this time. Found some markings that I am planning on contacting SPEC about. The good: an expensive upgrade could be yours for a reasonable price! In great condition minus the replaceable friction plate. The...

Hesitation and low rpms and CEL - '06 V6 5MT I've had an issue with stumbling/hesitation when applying throttle and low rpms in my Passat for some time, but it got noticeably worse this weekend during a 600+ mile excursion. During the trip was also the first time that the CEL lit during some...

I'm facing having to change the transmission in my '04 Passat with the 2.8L V6. There are a lot of 5 speeds available from the 1.8T equipped cars, but not so many from V-6 donors. So, my question - other than gear ratios - are there any other issues I may encounter when trying to use a 1.8T...

Hi everyone, I recently picked up a 2001.5 (B5.5) GLX V6 5MT with only 87k original, one-owner miles!! She's beautiful Blue Anthracite Pearl with light gray interior and has been very well kept, although there are a few nagging issues that I'll have to address. First is the slight smell of...

Leather is a must beige is preferred, less than 100 miles, I live in the Cleveland area. Budget is around 3k

I hoped this day would never come...this is the car that got me to ClubB5 in 2001! I'm looking to get $1500-$2000, depending on reasonable offers. I've already called two places about donating it because I just don't have time to show it to dozens of random low-ballers. I'd much rather it go...

Editing for posterity. Thanks for the interest Andreas, but I've decided to keep the car. My new commute is less than one mile from the house, which means lots more mountain biking and a lot less commuting. Plus, I've been driving my daughter's "new" 99 V6 Accord coupe automatic and I just...

Ok, in the process of handing over the check for a 2004 Allroad today and I'm ready to sell my 2000 Passat. We've owned it since 89000 km (55 000 miles), bought used in 2003 at one of the dealers in Calgary, now has ~ 246000 km (150 000 miles). Black magic with black leather interior, includes...

SOLD Copy of my Craigslist ad: Asking $6,500 '02 Volkswagen Passat with the 1.8L turbo engine and 5 speed manual transmission. I bought the car with 47k miles and it currently has 84,6xx miles and is in great shape. The car is mildly modified and well taken care of. Engine: Upsolute...

You know it is killing me to post this... [image content] Enthusiast owned. Meticulously serviced. Passionately driven. And now looking for a new driver/owner to enchant and thrill. Punching with 290-300HP, provided by a k0mpresd tuned PES G1 M62 Eaton supercharger plumbed through a custom...

I posted in the garage, but it's getting to the point where I need to make a decision. Problem is, I've never brought my car anywhere in Ga. (in Marietta/Kennesaw), so I don't know what to do. Basically, at a light tonight on the way home, the idle started doing 750,800,750,800, etc. I also...

So, sitting at the light, the idle started going from 750-800-750-800-750-800, etc, where it usually just sits happy at 750. I also noticed that the interior light would dim with the bounce. I replaced the plugs with the OE and still have the issue. I found one vac leak and fixed that, but...

Hey all, I'm thinking about jumping ship to an S4, so I'm testing the waters with my A4. Specs: 2002 A4 1.8T Quattro 5MT. 126k miles on the clock. Silver, black leather interior. Front and rear heated seats. Sunroof/moonroof. 17" A4 Sports with good tires and 15" winter steelies with new...

Is your shift knob finish cracked or deeply scratched? Trade with me and get a like-new looking OE (not Chinese) walnut shift knob for the cost of postage. Really. I picked this excellent condition wood knob yesterday from a 2004 GLX for a project I have been wanting to do, but I didn't need it...

The car was very nice, interior was clean, pulled hard, clutch felt good, shifted smooth, and it tracked straight. However, there were a few things that raised some concern with me as I was driving and looking it over in the parking lot. 1) The CEL was on. I didn't have a scanner with me, but...

looking for $2k obo. see 1998 Audi A4 2.8L Quatro Sedan Opal Pearl for pix et al. SOLD!

OK, it's blazing hot here almost all the time. I'm all for DIY when I can, but with my new work schedule (new FT job and teaching 2 nights a week), I'm just too unmotivated to "feel" it. So, any mechs out there know a general idea what I'd have to pay an indy to do both trans mounts? AJ

I was just wondering if it's such a bad idea to do the trans mounts on a V B5.5 with just ramps and a jack (to lift the trans)? I have 4 jackstands, but I've had a car fall on me in the past (I had a 14" log under the frame and it saved me). I know that some here have the tip....but with the...
