    What could be source of this leak? I've replaced the valve cover gasket. The exhaust cam seal was moist, but definitely not wet. What are the other options? Camshaft? Is this the power steering pump? 1.8L Turbo AWM

    I bought a 409 serial cable from two different sources and each time they sent me a USB one - apparently both suppliers can't get the serial anymore. I'd really like to mod the ccm with VDS pro but I can't get a hold of a serial cable. If anyone knows where I can get one please chime in. (if...

    Does anybody know of a source where I can buy a wooden 5-speed shifter knob with or without the boot or just the 5-speed logo? All the shifter knobs I seem able to find are the ones for jetta's/Golf's were the reverse is in the wrong location. Any help appreciated, thanks.

    Canadian online parts sources. A few links for our fellow canucks worth checking out eh. :) I have tried only one of these guys so far,- autopartsway.ca and they're okay. The rest I can't vouch or confirm, if anybody has experience / feedback for anyone please shout it out here. And if there...

    I am pretty discouraged with the parts sources I have used so far. Both dealerships here in Edmonton are way out of line in terms of parts prices, and every online place I seem to look at in Canada does not have the parts I need. I just did the valve cover gaskets and the PVC system-headache...

    The plastic/rubber on the antennae of both my B5.5s has become brittle and is cracking - I want to replace the antennae, but I don't want to go to the dealership - they are always so expensive. Per the title, any suggested sources for replacement antennae would be appreciated. TIA

    I just found a small oil spot on the garage floor that I hadn't seen before. It would be coming from the pass side rear of the engine. What are the most likely sources of this on a 1.8t Passat?
