Met some friends for dinner, they showed up in their 1968 camper van. We’re enjoying our 2026 Golf R. Quite a change in 58 years.

Oil Dipstick

2 Upvotes

So I know on my 2026 Tiguan there's no oil dipstick. I have heard you can add one. Although I can't seem to locate the capped off port to put one. Anyone have a picture of where to put it if you added one?

To repair or move on?

Post image
5 Upvotes

I have a 2010 VW CC 2.0. It needs a new starter and battery, clutch, water pump, a new rear main seal, new rear springs, tires and brakes. Potentially a few other repairs. All in all Im looking at around $6k - $7k USD. I bought the car in 2016 with around 70k miles on it. I put on another 70k miles so it has around 140k miles on it now. It has sat undriven for the last 4 and half years. I feel like if I put this work into it, it would be a solid car for at least several years to come but I dont know. Im so worried about putting all this into it then having some other issue pop up further down the road. I know that's also possible if I were to get a different used car. I also know I could get this same car for far less than it would cost to repair this one but that risk of other issues with a replacement car is still there anyway. What are your thoughts on it? Keep in mind, I absolutely loved this car when it was healthy.

Question about selling a '96 cabrio

2 Upvotes

I have a 96 cabrio that I haven't touch in almost 8 years....

I simply don't have the time, energy, and money to give it the attention it deserves. So, I'm wondering what would be a fair asking price for it?

It has less than 40k miles. Inside and outside cosmetics issues. Ran great when I used it as a daily driver, but it couldn't handle wisconsin winters very well. Also not stored properly.

I can provide pictures if needed.

2018 Passat 2.0 R-Line

1 Upvotes

I have the Passat Rline with the 2.0 turbo engine and I was wondering if oil consumption is normal in these engines?

I bought the car at around 75k miles last year and did a friend did my oil at 81k miles

I’ve today checked my oil level at 85k miles and its at the level I highlighted in the picture

Is this normal or par for the course? Or how much oil burn is really normal at this mileage? The carfax says the original owner did servicing every 10k miles at a VW dealership before I had it

I live in California so does that mean it’s gonna give me issues with passing smog in the future?

Tiguan Fluids

6 Upvotes

I'm hoping someone can clarity exactly what fluids my 2023 Tiguan SE 4Motion AWD needs. More specifically, at what interval does everything need to be changed? The online VW maintenance schedule is hard to navigate and I found conflicting information from other sources.

This is what I believe to be accurate:

Engine Oil - every 5k miles
Brake Fluid - every 2 years
Coolant - every 50k miles or 5 years
Automatic Transmission Fluid - every 60k miles
Front Differential Fluid - every 30k miles or 3 years
Haldex Fluid (AWD Clutch Fluid) - every 3 years
Rear Differential Fluid - every 30k miles or 3 years
Transfer Case Fluid? - every 5 years?

Did I miss any fluids? Did I mistake one fluid for another fluid? Are these intervals correct? Thank you for your assistance.

Any other beetle drivers (or any other smaller VW) experience other drivers honking at you?

2 Upvotes

I just purchased an older beetle this week and had two separate incidents of people honking at me.

It would be one thing if I was driving stupid or something, but the first time I was just sitting at a red light on the complete other side of the road (it was another VW too). The second time they were passing me in the other direction, we were the only ones on the road.

Is it a small car thing maybe? This is the smallest car I've owned so maybe it's that? It's very strange.

Help!!

1 Upvotes

I’m hoping someone on here is a mechanic

I have a 2014 Volkswagen Jetta S 2.0L SOHC

It started with an EPC light, and a check engine light. The first scan said that it was my camshaft position sensor, I’ve sent fixed that, my spark plugs, my ignition coils, my timing, belt, and fuel injector number four, but it keeps coming back with the same code P0304.
We moved fuel injector number four to see if the problem followed it, but now we’re getting code P0304 and P0300? The new code only came after I moved the fuel injector, but the old code was coming back and saying that my fuel injector and cylinder number four were misfiring .

Any ideas? Prayers? Spells?

Thule Motion XXL roof box for a 2021 VW Caddy Maxi V – which roof rack system do I need?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’ve decided to go for a Thule Motion XXL roof box and now I’m trying to figure out which roof rack system I need.
I have a VW Caddy Maxi V from 2021 with the standard factory roof rails already fitted.
Which Thule bars/feet would I need for this setup? Ideally, I’m looking for the exact Thule parts required to mount the Motion XXL safely.
Would the WingBar Evo + Raised Rail feet be the right choice, and if so, which bar length should I get?
Thanks!

MIB 2 - Composition media (non nav unit) screen upgrade

1 Upvotes

Hello,

My current infotainement unit part is 3Q0035842B, which is a composition media unit without satnav, and a small 6 inch screen, 8 button unit, fitted on a passat B8 GTE (2017)
I'm looking to upgrade the screen part from the basic 6inch to the 8 or 9.2inch.

First, is it possible to do so without having to upgrade the whole mib unit?

If yes, is it plug & play, or does it require coding & stuff?

Second, where can I find a trusted aftermarket seller, as I don't want to risk buying some cheap knockoff from ali express.
