VW Polo 1999 - 1.4CL - Heater does not work. by
Seb
Hi,
Does anyone have any idea why although the blower fan is working fine when
we push the slider over to hot air we still only get cold air. The cooling
system seems to be working fine - i.e engine temp is normal and the
thermostat seems to be working properly and the various pipes get hot.
Any one explain how the hot air systems should work and what I could check ?
Thanks

Changing fluid in type 096 auto transmission by
Bodhran
VW Passat 2.0 CL Automatic
when I get to a certain rev the transmission seems to slip and makes a
noise. I think this is during a gear change.
Haynes manual says this could be down to the fluid level and/or
condition of fluid.
I have a type 096 gearbox with a dipstick.
The manual says the fluid should be drawn from the dipstick tube using
a special adapter which I haven't got but was wondering...

VW Touran DVD player by
David Dix
Hi,
Anyone out there purchased a new Touran with the free DVD player promo that
VW are currently offering?
If so, have you managed to get the DVD player to play the sound thru the car
radio using the FM tuner as the manual recommends on page 4?
Also, does anyone know if the unit can be made to be region free?

Golf thoughts by
Pidgeonpost
We're thinking of changing our MK3 Golf GL, and another Golf seems favourite
(though there's competition these days from Peugeot and other hatches).
Trouble is, there's a bewildering range out there, and some of the online
reviews I've read are contradictory. Some say the MK4 is a lot less reliable
than the MK3. Can that really be true?
So lets narrow it down a bit. As far as performance goes,...

Flat spot in 3rd on MkIV Golf by
Paul Hutchings
Recently my Golf (2002 1.4l MkIV) seems to have developed a bit of a
judder/flat spot in third gear.
I'm not too familiar with these things so I hope I'm using the right
term, basically you put your foot down, it picks up, and sometimes just
seems to stutter/judder for a split second and then goes again.
I'm not mechanical, is there anything I can do myself? Any suggestions
on what might...

Passat exhaust by
Rob
I have a '99 Passat 1.8T and the joint between the centre pipe and the middle
box on the exhaust is blowing after nearly 100,000 miles from new.
I've taken it to two exhaust places and both have quoted me in the region of
£300 to replace. This strikes me as a bit expensive, especially since both guys
looked genuinely shocked/surprised when given the prices over the phone from
their own...

Pioneer radio/cd into Bora by
John
Anyone know if a Pioneer deh-1600r (2003 manufacture) head
unit will connect straight into a 2002 Bora 1.9Tdi SE
without any snags?
I know I need an antenna ISO/DIN adapter, but will the
existing wiring loom connector in the car match up with the
head unit wiring without an adaptor? A VW dealer has
mentioned that sometimes replacement head units continue to
draw on the battery and drain it...

Golf TDI - tyre pressure/radio? by
David Newton
Just traded my Mondeo in for a Mk 4 Golf TDI 130 PD - good move, I know.
This is my first VW and the first time I've ever bought off a main dealer.
Had it ten days now and love it!
The manual tells me to refer to a plaque on the drivers door pillar for the
tyre pressures and service information. It isn't there. Anyone help me out
with the pressures?
Another annoying problem has arisen in...

4motion interior by
paulovey
Hi all,
Im about to pick up my new golf 4motion this saturday. Its Y plate
2001 model.
And was wondering, does anyone know if it is easy to change the fake
wood dash bits round the radio and central panel, to something a bit
more tasteful. Such as basic plastic, or even a metallic effect. And
if so where I could get such a thing?
