2022+ Arteon Update: Power figures are fantastic and are similar to the Golf R and S3 since they share the same 2.0T Ea888.4 engine and mostly the same Simos 19.x ECU. Using 93 octane we tested stock, APR 93 low output stage 1 (stock TCU), and the same tune with our intake and intercooler. 304 AWHP Stock 350 AWHP APR ECU (No TCU) 373 AWHP APR ECU/CAI/IC (No TCU) These figures are at the wheels with no added drivetrain loss Our APR Intake and intercooler are extremely critical for...

Selling a set of 4 x Volk Racing TE37 in anodized bronze. They the original TE37s, which are no longer made, and are a 16x7 size with a 5x100 bolt pattern and offset of +33 (Volkswagen). These are new in box and they have never had a tire mounted on them. Unfortunately, I no longer have the car they were meant for so I am selling them. They were sized originally for a VW 5x100 on a Corrado/Golf/Jetta. Please do not ask me for specific fitment questions - I won't be able to answer. Sold as... *NIB* Volk Racing TE37 OG Anodized Bronze Wheels (Set of 4 ..read more

1996 Cabrio3 Rear Window Staple Ring

I picked up Cabrio3 a year ago as a cheap driveable project. The previous owner replaced the top but never installed the rear defrost window. I realized why....he destroyed the window seal and the staple ring is missing. Only the metal frame is there. Does any vendor sell the staple ring? Does anyone know what material the staple ring is made of including the thickness and the needed width? I am assuming it's plastic. Does anyone know if it's nylon or PTFE or ABS, etc? Thanks ..read more

Where are all the Fisker Karma's? I still haven't seen one "in the wild", but I did get the privilege of checking one out at the Auto show. And the car is definitely one of a kind in it's own standpoint. I guess Telsa's are the alternate and better deal ..read more

I'm in process of sourcing parts for my turbo R32 build and curious if there is any relevant information in regard to prior failures, customer service, etc. on low compression pistons. Did a search in here and not much came up as far as good or bad experiences. So my thoughts are that all are similar enough and just to go with the best deal. I'm going for 84.5mm bore to ensure freshest wall surface. Wossner 9:1 are $979.20 Wossner... Turbo Pistons ..read more

Okay, here’s a new one and likely on Apple as all the rest of my menus still work normally, but my CarPlay is about half size and you can’t access the parts that aren’t displayed. Band name and temperature setting seem like a setup, but I assure you it was innocent ..read more

Radio dead after jump starting
VW Vortex

I connected the cables backwards for a few seconds. My radio is now dead. Won't turn on at all. I replaced the blown radio fuse in the panel by the drivers door but still there is nothing. Are there any other fuses to check or should I pull the radio and check for power there? Everything else in the car seems fine. 2003 GTI with Monsoon ..read more

Wobbling crank pulley
VW Vortex

Hello, I ended up replacing the chains, tensioners, and guides on my 2010 MK6 (was still on the old tensioner and 7 notches were exposed scream) and after putting everything back together, am seeing that the crank pulley is wobbling and potentially making a weird sound. I made sure to insert the crank bolt + donut/washer as soon as I removed the crank pulley and when installing the crank pulley, made sure that it went on the spider gear/sprocket correctly. Obviously one of these is... Wobbling crank pulley ..read more
