So after falling in love with driving an orange '74 beetle growing up, I decided I wanted a manual of my own. After lurking around craigslist and eventually these forums, I started getting interested in the golfs and GTIs. I always liked the idea of having a hatchback. And for some reason or another (mostly salivating over the awesome transformations I had seen on the forums) I decided I would take on a project. So now I'm the new owner of a MK2 GTI in Tornado red.
Or at least mostly red...

Had my 2022 3.6 in at the dealership for a CEL which is unrelated to this oil leak and is in its own thread. Had the car inspected in Jan. and was told it looks like the oil pan was leaking slightly. Dealership is saying it is the front crankshaft seal. So they ordered the part and it will be repaired next week. Car is at 30,000 miles ..read more

2011 VW GTI MK6 | 6SPD.

Also when i removed the trans some transmission fluid...

I just got done installing a stage 2 dkm clutch and the car won't go into gear. The clutch pedal feels decently stiff and the brake fluid is coming out clean with no bubbles. While I was there I replaced the rear main seal, I swapped out the trans fluid for Motul 300 75w90 (trans doesn't have normal fill plug), as well as the ECS tuning bleeder block. The only two things I can think of is there is a leak in the system somewhere or I installed the clutch disk backwards.. I made sure to...

Have a weird problem that we are having issues finding solutions for. We are working on a custom build that has a w12 swapped into it that is dealing with a no start issue. We are attempting to wire in the DLC to properly scan the vehicle to start tracking down what the actual problem is. North America VW techline says they can’t get Euro diagrams for us and we are struggling to source them, any help would be appreciated! The engine is out of a 2008 Touareg ..read more
