If it's the tie rod ends, I'm going to replace them with the Meyle HD tie rod ends.
Reviews of spare parts for Volkswagen
Two months ago I changed all the glow plugs with Bosch plugs. The glow system works great.
K&N's work great, just don't over oil them. I've been running them for years on all my cars. No problem with the Touareg either in 10K miles.
Scirocco Fuel Tank Recall information there was a recall made on some roccos due to them rusting out along a seam. if it hasnt been done yet, then Presto, you get a free, dealer installed gas tank, along with all of the extra stuff needed to complete the operation.
i finally got it. so we were checking wires and stuff and everything was checking out ok and then with the car running we would check the alt. and still no voltage putting out. i was baffeled. so then i thought ill switch voltage regulators because what i did when the new alt. came in was that i changed the voltage regulator to a new one bought previously and had put that one in and installed the alt. so i changed voltage regulators and put the one that came with the new alt. and low and behold there was the problem. i turned the ignition on. the battery light came on in the instement cluster, started the car and boom there it was, the alt. was putting out 14 volts and we were good to go.
bought me some bosch icons a few weeks ago and i love them i noticed a huge difference when the first rain came through
I got new Brembo front rotors (not drilled), and then put in new pads... THe new rotors and pads in the front mad a HUGE difference....
I just had my brakes done all around, ATE rotors with Hawk HPS pads FTW, very little brake dust and my isht stops on a dime. I had my fluid flushed too, this upgrade was def worth the money
Alternators don't make good battery chargers and if your alternator is on its way out then it may not be able to charge the battery. A fully charged battery measures 12.6V when the car is not started. When it's discharged by 75% then it measures 12.4V. if it's like 12V then it's totally dead. When you start the engine and the alternator turns, at idle you should have at least 13.4 Volts. If it's less than this then try reving the RPM's to like 2000rpm. You now should have at least 13.4V. If you don't then you have a problem either with the regulator or you have a bad diode.
cut a few fram filters before and they were horrid. if you do use a fram filter, use the Xtended Gaurd, much better then the fram PH filters
