I sold my '12 GTI a year and a half ago. I've got a second set of wheels in my storage closet and I want to get rid of them. Two are rashed, one has a few marks on it, and one is like 99.999% perfect. Three tires are Michelin all seasons that are 4 years old and have probably 10-15K of life...

I’ve found that while in 93 and 91 mode, between 2,400-3,000 RPM, my car is jerky and surges a bit. It feels like I have a plugged fuel filter for a minute and then… BAM power on. The issue seems worse during light to moderate throttle. It’s driving me nuts for daily driving in city traffic...

I have a road trip coming up and will be driving about 600 miles. I have a ton of odds and ends that I plan on stowing in the hatch of my GTI. After loading it all in, I noticed that my car is loaded down pretty good. Like no real wheel gap. I'm not bottomed out or rubbing the wheels though...

I'm going. Driving from St. Louis all the way up to Holland, MI. Who else is going?

I was under my car today doing a manual transmission drain and fill and noticed some wetness on the back of the engine. It appears to be oil. The oil is on the back of the engine, above the oil pan, and extends up to some metal tubes that eventually appear to be going to the turbo charger. I...

Occasionally, when I "restart" my car it will crank about 5 times more than normal. Nothing crazy, but definitely noticeably longer thank a normal start. It's been doing this for about a year. It only seems to do it on a restart, never on the first start-up. It is inconsistent too. Sometimes...

So, I'm wondering if I have the beginning signs of carbon buildup. My car, at idle with either cold or normal operating temperature, will have a slight miss to it. I swear I can feel it. However, neither the CEL or EPC light have come on yet. Under a light load or heavy load I have no...

Finally, I'm now in the "my water pump failed" club. 48,000 on my 2012 MK6 GTI and I've discovered puddles under the car, coolant pooling on the under body shield, and a low coolant bottle. I've got an appointment scheduled at the dealership to get it fixed this Tuesday. I've spoken to them...

I noticed that my PCV valve had some oil on it. It appears that it is seeping. I was wondering if anyone else has had this and is it normal?

I’m having an odd issue with my car. I’ve only got 38,000 miles on it. During minor to moderate acceleration and between 2,000 and 3,000 RPMs the car feels like its missing. No check engine light and no EPC light. It doesn’t feel smooth through that RPM range and is jerky like it’s stumbling...

File this one under... "yeah, that just happened!" Accidentally left my driver side window down last night. Sprinkler system at my apartment complex went off this morning. Douched the inside of my car. Basically it destroyed my instrument cluster...it's half lit up and acting crazy. The...

Hey everyone! I'm a noob here posting for the first time. I've been following the forums since I bought my 2012 GTI new in November of 2011… just been too bashful to join and post anything. My car has got 24,000 miles on it and for the last 500 or so miles I've noticed a clatter from the...
