It's gonna be so awesome when you get back on the road.

Saturday I got the car aligned. I drove it home a block and went to sleep. I woke up around 7pm and drove 33 miles before my front wheel came off. I grinder in the rotor for a few hundred yards, driver fender is destroyed, wheel hub is bent. I'm going to the shop in an hour and raising some hell. Wuste is in a few weeks so I'm hoping they can do the work in time.

[syncrogti]

Why would an alignment shop pull the wheel off?

[Hybrid_Hatch]

Fixed a blown strut mount on the e-S2 and fixed the cabin fuel smell in the S6 (stupid hose popped off the carbon canister, love simple fixes)


E-S2

Hooked up the water/meth after a dormant winter.
Any local shops sell juice in sandy/ midvale area?

[PCSkiBum_21]

i'm pretty sure the only place to get methanol is kellerstrass/jensens oil, they're about 4800 south and redwood road. only open mon-fri. that's all i could find when i was running it a couple years ago.

[President Lincoln]

It cracks me up that your picture is considered "raised up" Car looks good man, glad to read it's running good to. Now come teach me to build an engine.

What did I do to my ride: cleaned out the bug and began putting bits and pieces back together. Those door card clips are a pain.

[((a.v.))mk-1]

Hey common, that's at LEAST 3.25 inches off the ground got sick of using a jack to get a jack under it... I'll slam it for euro sl,ut There is some rust that needs to be addressed. But I'm just excited I somehow managed to get a perfect interior.

Clutch is in. Wheelz are on and on coils.

[RenoJetta]

Ordered 2 new wheel hubs, 2 wheel bearing kits, control arm bushings (lower and upper), 2 ball joints, new front driver fender, rotors and pads, new struts and shocks,and lastly, sway bar bushings.

[Junkyard Hero]

Did a half ass wash on the Passat after work

[ZuluB602]

I finally got my suspension installed (pro-dampers + sportilnes), took me about 7 hours (first time), replaced sway bar links and ball joints as well.

Very happy with the results, I love the handling on the curves, and acceleration seems faster now, little more stiffer though, oh and better look (no more 4x4 look).





next mod?? I don't know yet, maybe brakes or chip.

[Hybrid_Hatch]

^^^ is it normal to have dents in the strut housing?

[Levi20AE]

they are there to allow more wheel clearance.

Since I am home again, it would only be right to pick up where i left off from the last disaster. Since I never got to finish the water pump job due to wrong serpentine belt, I picked up the correct size on my way home from the airport. Started off this morning by filling the car with coolant, test drive, pulling off the bumpers so I can begin work on them, installed a MOMO pedal set I had laying around from the Mk2, went to the junk yard and got the block breather, valve cover breather and the intake tube from an aba, installed all that and made a bracket to support the cone filter, but had to remove the washer fluid bottle for it to fit, went to tonys and pulled some things of his parts rabbit, key tumblers for the doors and rear hatch so now i can lock everything, and most importantly swapped out the hood. NO MORE HOOD PINS!!! Also downloaded megatune and got to watch the MS operate while I drive! Pics!

[01]

Nice work!

[Provocyclist]

Installed the new rear brakes on Jareds car, painted the drums black, all new springs, shoes, and cylinders. Feels so much better, but i found out the pass side brake line is kinked (not my doing) so its either JY or dealer for new rear hard lines.

[David802]

Lowered it.

[President Lincoln]

Hell ya. Keep up the good work!

[william8251]

Timing belt....

[salteatervw]

First oil change on the Jetta and a new drain plug. Balanced the tires as well.

[Rathroe]

Lowered it, or rather adjusted the coilovers to compensate for settling. Front left corner came up 3/4 turn so i dont rub all the time with my *** in it, and took the rear down to 2 threads evening it out.

[President Lincoln]

Boxed up my elevel controller, left it at work, forgotten, then had to back for it...

[Dowski12]

Mounted my FMIC and installed powdercoated valve cover and SEM Intake Mani

[gregc801]

New wheels

[Levi20AE]

installed a quick release mount in the bed of the caddy and changed the oil.

[Parafanaylya]

Installed 6x9's

[stezzserg]

Washed it and took some pics

[vegaspassat]

^^^Good lord that is nice!

[salteatervw]

Replaced two motor mounts on the Jetta and replaced broken taillights.

[LOW36]

In the middle of swapping in a new cluster that actually works.

[OG16VGLI]

Got a new windshield yesterday. and ordered all of this..

[N3M51R]

So far this week- insured it, installed new Sunroof seal (thanks again Daveo), adjusted shift linkage to my liking, installed brake light switch and sorted some taillight bulbs. Also got rid of that atrocious orange manifold!
