Hi guys, I'm looking to sell my car and get something cheaper (8th gen civic or something). Just got married and moved in to a new house and my wife needs a new car as well. I'm not in a rush or desperate to sell, I love this car and have taken very good care of it. I've owned it for 5 years...

Hi, I'm posting this for a friend - I don't normally do this, but this car is very clean and can confidently vouch for the owner. If interested, please PM me here and I will send you his contact information. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Below are the details and some pictures. The...

Thinking of maybe selling my Detroits with tires (Falken FK453). Rims are in good condition, very minor scuffs and one has some curb rash (there since I bought the car). Tires used for 2-3 summers. Anyone have a ballpark of what these rims are worth nowadays? Would I be able to get $1000? I...

Hi guys, I have the following for sale: - 4 GTI ignition coils; upgraded to r8 coil packs about 2 years ago. These have probably 30k kms on them. Looking for $60. - 034 Motorsports strut mounts (pictured on the left below) with FAG bearings. I installed these in the spring and put ~6000 kms...

Hi guys, I've swapped my suspension over about 3 times now; this last time was to replace my strut mounts with 034Motorsport ones (+new bearings) to get rid of the squeaks. I got an alignment done as well. They were good for about 2 days, no noise, but now it's back and worse when I have more...

Hi guys, I'm helping a friend sell these. The first is a set of Continental Winter tires mounted on steel rims. These were on a 2011 GTI, used for about 1 season. Looking to get $450 OBO for this set. Size is 205/55/16. The second is a set of 4 winter tires (no steelies here), brand is...

Hey guys, My dad has a 2012 golf/jetta sportwagon and for a while now I notice (mostly cold start) it has a rattle that sounds like the timing chain on startup. The same noise is present when driving around and it shifts to higher gear (low rpm) with some load or if a/c is running. It...

I just recently upgraded my shocks/struts to Koni's and got another set (of the same springs) since it's easier to install rather than swapping everything over... Anyways, looking to sell the shocks/struts and springs that were removed from my mk6 GTI. I think these are the mk5 springs (see...

Anyone have this tool? If so, where did you get it from? I'd rather buy one over getting the autozone rental as we have 2 vw's in the house and I'll need this more than once... I found this kit at Princess Auto, but I'm concerned that it doesn't have the right size for our calipers...

Hi there, Looking to buy a set of H&R super sport springs for my mk6 GTI, 4 door manual (not sure if that makes a difference). Please let me know what you have, budget is $150-$180. Located in Mississauga. Thanks, Mike

Hey guys, So I installed H&R supersport springs w/OEM shocks on my gti this summer. I had read that no one had problems with hitting the frame with just springs. I've felt as if the frame hit on a few really big bumps, but thought it may have been the bump stops since I didn't cut them down...

Anyone have one locally they'd like to sell me? :) I'm picking up some springs and want to install them as soon as I can, so don't feel like waiting 2 weeks for the tool to come in the mail.. Thanks, Mike

2012 JSW (Golf Wagon in Canada), has 20,000 kms - my dad's car. He was driving yesterday and in one occassion when putting the car in 'D' or 'R' the transmission would make a loud bang and jerk. There was also loss of power when driving. He called VW when he got home and they asked him to try...

I know this topic has been beat to death, but I can't seem to find answers to two questions I have. Sorry, they are likely dumb questions, but I don't want to mess this up. 1. Is blue loctite needed for the 13mm nut? 2. When adjusting the shift links, do I just bring them back to the OE...

Hi guys, I'm looking for a set of WeatherTech floormats for my dads 2012 Golf Wagon. He has the circle type clips. Please PM me if you have something. I prefer local but don't mind shipping if you're outside the GTA. Thanks, Mike

Does anyone know what this is (circled in red)? I see what looks to be coolant lines coming out of each ends, but have no clue what it is. I've noticed recently that when the car warms up slightly after a cold start, that this 'thing' turns on and makes a loud, high pitched, constant...

I just noticed this this morning on the way to work, so I haven't had a chance to check my owner's manual. When I press the 'auto' button on the climatronic, it always turns the a/c on - although it was 5 degrees this morning and I had my climate setting at about 23 degrees. Why is that? Is it...

As the title states; let me know if you're willing to trade. I'm located in mississauga, traded my iphone for a samsung galaxy and would like to have the same functionalities. My MDI cable is almost new, was recently replaced (last month?) at the dealer. Please PM me if you'd like to trade. :)...

Hey guys, looking to buy a revision d valve; please let me know if you have one or know where I can get one locally for a decent price. I'm located in mississauga, willing to meet up. Thanks, Mike

Hey guys, I had my clutch replaced under warranty about 1-2 weeks after I got my car (Cpo 2010 gti) because it had the grinding/hoot noise when cold. The clutch has recently been broken in (waited about 2000 kms) and I'm finally getting to open up the car. Tonight, I've noticed a grind from...
