The Punch Line A set of (slightly) used B5.5 front pads/rotors is yours for free. I only ask to be reimbursed for the cost of shipping. The Story When my front pads and rotors finally wore out, I had the dealer install a new set. Although they performed fine, they generated a great deal of...

How bad is this? Hit a pothole yesterday. The edge of the wheel lip is bent. Tire is OK, seems to be holding air, and car does not handle any differently. How concerned should I be?

I had read just about every thread on this forum and others concerning creaking steering wheel noise and no-one had mentioned this as their cause so thought I would post it here. Having only owned my B5.5 Variant for a few months and having just gotten most of the bugs out of it I was amazed at...

So I'mtrying to "restore" my car and I'm almost done but I kinda am at a stand still because I can't get the chrome to look shiny and not sure what to use to buff the fog lights after I wet sand them.

Hi guys. I had my tie rods replaced back in June. I don't drive the car very often, so I've put very little freeway miles on it since then. Yesterday, I was on the freeway and it felt like the wheel(s) was/were riding uneven - there seemed like a wobble at higher speeds (>50), and it was...

Was changing the oil and checked oil after adding 6Q (2.8). It was at min. I added half a quart more and drive it around and checked and it's slightly over the cross hatch area to where it is just touching the orange plastic on the dipstick. I'm guessing I added about 200-300ml more than its...

Ok, I looked around and can't find any information on this. My steering wheel moves up and down (not side to side) about 1/16" (give or take a few). It just started doing this about 2 months ago. It is a 2003 V6 with 50K. My steering is tight, the car doesn't vibrate and none of the other...
