Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Golf MK4 Selector rod installation

    Hi
    I have a new selector rod to install. It is the plastic rod to install over the 2 ball studs in the linkage. It appears as if it should push on, but on trying it obviously needs some force. Is this the correct way to install and how is it usually done?
    Thanks
    Miguel

      clean the part which you are going to put them onto with brake cleaner.apply some washing up liquid ,soap or grease to the ball part and to the new part .get some adjustable grips and slowly squeeze them together..thats the way i would carry out this task...

        Thanks for the reply, that is basically what I did in the end. I actually managed to get a small G clamp down there to squeeze them on.
