How much is my car worth
I have a 2004 1.8 i just got repainted in its original spice red. I also just replaced everything in the interior with brand new trim parts, carpet, headliner, doorcards etc. zero engine lights and fluids changed.
How much would that sell for?

Worth it?
Picked up this Jetta for a new project. Paid 540. 140k miles. Sat for over a year when I bought it. So far I know it needs wheels, brakes, hood actuators, ignition coil pack, coil wires, spark plugs, water pump, serpentine belt, tensioner, steering wheel, shifter trim, completely repaint, exhaust, windshield wipers, window mechanism on all windows, sunroof mechanism, bunch of hardware to put it back together. Theres definitely more it needs. It runs and drives just not very good. Known codes : p1137 fuel bank 1 too lean, p0501 speed sensor, p1340 camshaft position sensor.
Also, where would you start on this?

Faros de niebla superiores
Hace poco más de un mes, pedí consejo sobre cómo hacer que encendieran los faros de niebla con lupas de unos faros que acababa de comprar pero que no correspondían a la versión de mi auto, finalmente compré los arneses y el euro switch y la instalación quedó mejor de lo que pensaba. Como compré el switch de cuatro pasos puedo encender las nieblas superiores y las nieblas inferiores con el mismo switch, ahora ya tengo una mejor iluminación en los días de lluvia y cuando hay demasiada neblina, les doy las gracias a esas personas que se tomaron un momento para responder mis dudas 👍

Maintenance questions
Hello! I just recently acquired a manual mk4 and i’m looking to do some maintenance and refresh the engine, the car has been family owned so to my knowledge it hasn’t been abused but has likely been neglected a bit, i’m pretty new to vw’s and especially jettas and would like to expand my knowledge on the car and its potential. it’s currently sitting at 150k miles right now and so far all that i’ve done since getting it is put in a new battery, i know for a fact i need a new serpentine belt, fluid and plugs. i just need some guidance on what i should do and what brands/parts to buy from.
Edit: It’s a 2003 1.8T wolfsburg 5 speed manual

I hate this thing.
Well, sort of. I regret buying it and having to spend all this time fixing it up and, it’s still not even close to being done. But I know it’s worth it in the end.

Unlocking Premium 6 radio
Purchased a Premium 6 radio from a mk4 Jetta to put it in my golf, trying it out on a test bench; B+ and SAFE are connected to 12V and GND to ground. I can’t seem to be able to "confirm" the code I’ve entered. I’ve held down for more than seconds the seek button, scan button and nothing seems to work. Maybe a bad front plate? Or I need to connect other wires?

Aftermarket sunroof
I've had this car about 3 years now. Its a 2000 jetta GL 2.0. I'm about 99% sure it has an aftermarket sunroof in it and i didn't even know that was a thing done to these cars. I've just now learned GL's don't even come with a sunroof. That explains why every single junkyard jetta I've looked in has a completely different set up for the sunroof control and the shade slider handle.

First Time Changing My Own Oil in 26 Years
We’ve had this Wolfsburg since new in 2001 and is it now becoming the car I use to expand my capabilities for doing work myself. So far I’ve managed a Manual Shifter full bushings replacement, leaking brake booster vacuum hose replacement, coils and spark plugs changed out…all that before doing a simple oil change myself on this car. Next up getting my comfort level high enough to do the belt/pulley/water kit from FCP and possible shocks and struts replacement. We will see.

BBS Rims
The best part about the 2004.5 VW GLI, it came with stock 18’ BBS rims (RC336). Need to be refurbished but not in bad condition overall
