ATL:What did you do to your car today

[BetaOp9]

We do scheduled maintenance(paid by VW) @ Gunther. They are on the way to our in-laws and about only dealership (other than JE on PTIB) that i had no issues with.
I work with Tina Harris, and i request Chaz for a tech, both came recommended by another dubber.
They also appear to be mod friendly, but i haven't had to get any warranty work done yet.

I got Tina. We'll see how mod friendly they are regarding my flywheel issue soon. Thanks for the info!

[GoLfUnV]

Shane, aka dubvinci, is a tech @ JE(PTIB), hopefully he will chime in here shortly. He may be able to help you as well.

I've used Tina ever since the Buford location opened and I always request Chaz.

Tina has been a VW Service advisor for many, many years and is not new to modded cars, she is normally really cool and uses common sense. Chaz is an enthusiast and treats your car with respect.

Obviously Gunther will not foot some crazy bill due to a mod, but they aren't out to **** you like other dealers. I love pulling into service everyone comes out and we always chat about modding.

I live in Gainesville, FL and Atlanta was as far south as I could get it towed for free from WiTW's meet in Fontana, NC.

I'm going to fly up to ATL to pick up the car when it's done. Maybe arrange a mini dub meet @ Gunther to celebrate the return of the Red Rocket to the streets! Lol.

I take mine to JE Chamblee, the one Shane works at. Of course I didn't know he worked there until recently. I'm not sure who worked on mine but they do a good job. They are mod friendly, at least that haven't said anything about my mods. Shane can give you more infomation on how mod friendly they are. I use Tony as my service rep there. He seems real cool and could care less about my mods. I think in the end they will still have to prove whatever issue you have was due to your mods.

Installed 1.5" body lift on the cummins tj I can now fit AC lines around the turbine housing



Had I not done this I would have had to modified the firewall and evaporator connections, I also now have more room for the compressor. Just need to modify the reciever dryer and figure out lines.


Also installed the new head unit and speakers, mocked up where I want to put the boost/egt gauge and sirius module (although that is back burner for now). And I removed all the roll bar padding to clean and paint it.. now done and reinstalled.

Started installing a bunch of sound deadening to try and make it more pleasant on the highway since I want to use it for camping and long trips.

mk2 vr6 swap is up for sale (need this gone)
80 caddy also probably up for sale (will only go for right monies)

Pm me about either if interested.

Good excuse to the wife for a lift.

I was there. I am friends with Chris W., we went to Chick-fil-a that one time.

Any update on your R32? I need to get my 90 day done and get my transmission looked at. I had issues at the dragon; I think my clutch got too hot.

Still working on it. Looks as if the damage has gone beyond the flywheel to the engine. Rough quote without an engine teardown is $9k. Not sure if that includes transmission damage as well.

I'm not ****ing happy.

My woman's old car's flywheel cracked and it blew the motor.

mod friendly to an extent at our dealer...as slow as we have been we arent looking to turn away work on a car just because you have lowered it...lol...but if you go thrashing around and it tears something up other that just a part failing, JE wont put their neck on the line and pay for your repairs...haha...im one for fighting for a customer sake when it comes to a bad design and crappy made parts, but not if you wanna take your car and beat on it past what its capable of and want someone else to foot the bill...and its easy to tell the difference...buying a stock car and beating the crap out of it isnt a smart idea...if its an r32, building a car to race/track/beat on is alot cheaper and more capable of not tearing stuff up than on a stock drivetrain...lol...just my .02..i dont know what mods you have but if it were me, i wouldnt be paying that much for a car and treating it like a racecar and not expect to have to fix some stuff....spend 15k on building a track car, 5k on a daily, and still have 15k in the bank over a stock r32....

I want to get my headliner done. where do you guys go? looking for a reputable shop with fair pricing. I already took everything off and just need some one to wrap my pillars and headliner.

[thepaintcanman]

Finishing these up for my jetta. About to be a sub 2k lbs car and 50 / 50 weight dist. Doing the metal rebars but later date. Did the front and rear bumpers and arches for now and widened the front arches for the 245 R6's. Dailying on 225 NTO1's now.

I guess some of the details are missing. but a cracked flywheel doesn't immediately cause the engine to "blow" Are you saying that it damaged the crank or something? Not looking to argue, just curious more then anything...

[1.8tblue4door]

Valve cover gasket and some ****ty hoses got replaced.

Yes that was the beginning of the hell. We had no idea what happened and she tried to drive it thinking it was a fueling issue, boom went the motor.
