Is it worthwile to extend the warranty on the dry clutch? I had to replace the clutch pack at 40k km (no charge) and now it is on 50k. The warranty expires today and I was quoted $2200 for 3 years/200,000 km by VW dealer. I am planning to go overseas for good in July, so I am contemplating whether it...

Hello All,

So I'm looking at buying a few goodies o/s and was hoping to have a couple of questions answered I can't seem to find the answers on and some feedback.

- So as I understand it orders =>$1,000 AUD MAY attract duty and GST. Does that include the shipping cost?...

If you have been following the diesel section you should know who I bought this car from, and a bit of the car's history.
Owning the car for almost one year with no major issues. Had alternator, A/C condenser fan and windshield washer pump replaced recently, so don't have to worry about these...

Has anyone fitted side steps/running boards to a 2017 Tiguan? If so, I would appreciate any information as to where they can be purchased? The only ones I can find are on ebay from overseas sellers and it does not appear VW have them as an accessory at this stage. Any hints or suggestions would be...

Don't drive any Vw at this stage....have only driven Golfs in the past.
I'm a mechanic by trade and have always been involved in rebuilding MK1 golfs overseas.
work as tech support engineer for Mercedes Benz but still love VAG

I am considering ordering a LWB T6 Transporter 4motion/DSG and sourcing from OS a 2nd row 3 seat option available in overseas T6 Shuttle models, as shown in the photo below. Obviously for a local install I'd need an engineers report and source the mounting rails which are the same as found in local...

Bought these and had them installed for a short period... IE a couple of days. Swapped them out for some LEDs which I had ordered from overseas. Thought my overseas ones were lost in transit but they have now arrived. Patience would have meant I wouldn't have spent $180 on these. Don't feel right returning...

Does anyone know of an OEM parts supplier from overseas?

I'm chasing the following modified vacuum hoses with pulsation damper:
7E0129458N
7E0129458M

There $200+ each locally and approx. half that from a UK VW dealer online after a quick Google.

These...

Hi,

Does anyone have any Coilovers they are willing to sell cheaply? The cheapest i can find is JOM however its difficult to get them sent to Australia. I thought i would ask here before ordering a set online from overseas.

Kind regards,

Hi
I am currently going down the path of trying to figure out whether I actually have a failed A/C compressor or just require a new RCV (refrigerant control valve) which seems to be a common fault. The local VW dealer and A/C mechanic have both told me I need a new compressor but after reading...

Hi guys,

Had a thought of registering for several reasons.

Let me introduce myself with a picture of my first VW Corrado - USG60 w Porsche 968 rims from overseas back in 2008


See you guys around and have a good one ...

I used to be a member of this forum last century,but I forgot my login details so I opened a new account...I had many MK I Golfs - a whole lawn full of them at one stage - and later a beautiful hot rodded MK II, but my favourite was a MK I diesel - my daily driver....That was a real grunter and like...

Hey all. I've had my Weitec Hicon GT coilovers on my mk4 GTI for a few years now. The passenger side front has blown the shaft seal and leaked oil all over itself, and makes an awful rubbing noise. The other shocks are all fine.

Does anyone know a workshop in Australia that might rebuild...

Found a business blog post from overseas that modifies VWs and especially Passat in this page.
Sees like there are a lot of stuff that can be done but labour cost would cost a bomb.
