soooooo stoked for video of this thing

**garasja** · 03-27-2011 03:21 PM

And some little things i do to the car lately:

**garasja** · 03-28-2011 02:39 PM

Today when i tested the waterpipes.............The water comes into the engineoil

A real setback for the project.I bought the engine for 5 years ago.No money back for this.compression on all 4 cylinders is very good.
The old oil that i changed last week was no sign of oil in.
Maybe a crack in the engine block

**toy_vw** · 03-28-2011 10:57 PM

are you using the stock VW oil cooler/ temp maintainer...Id start off there...they were kinda crappy from what I hear....mabie pull the oil pan off..and pressurize the coolant system again..then look for the trickle to see where the oil is coming from...that would be simple and easy and would tell you where its coming from hopefully

**garasja** · 03-29-2011 03:24 AM

Here is the problem.This is the crankcase breather

No water connection to this

**garasja** · 03-29-2011 03:28 AM

And a another problem leads to a another problem:

**toy_vw** · 03-29-2011 05:51 PM

well the first one is your crank case vent so hope there isnt a water supply to that...the second...i dont see whats wrong with it...

**garasja** · 03-30-2011 04:30 PM

This weekend goes to take out the transmission and replace the crankgasket.

**Mtl-Marc** · 03-30-2011 08:14 PM

Ritz it up!

**kaosminett** · 04-06-2011 08:59 PM

Looks really good

**garasja** · 04-07-2011 06:07 PM

water temp mounted:Someone give me a good idea how to solve the crank case oil breather pipe?Is catch tank needed?

**kaosminett** · 04-07-2011 09:46 PM

this thread has inspired me to do something with my scirocco
not on this scale, but something doable by myself
starting by ripping out the interior and laying in new carpet
then when i have the money, im going to get the engine rebuilt, and convert to digifant

**Stixsp11** · 04-08-2011 10:57 AM

Subscribing to this! Looks awesome man looking forward to the final results. I would love to do this one day, doesn't look TOO hard, just seems to take a lot of time.

Sorry, but there´s a little fail...

The Scirocco was built in Osnabrück. Never in Wolfsburg...

You do such a great work. Please dont´t make a fail with this little detail on the window handles.

But of course they made the "Wolfsburg Edition" Scirocco MkII even though they never made them there. Hell, VW pretty much has done that with about every model, whether it was made there or not. It would be nice to think that if there was a Wolfsburg Edition of a MkI Scirocco that they would have made it like this. Great work and looking forward to seeing pics of it with some nice Norwegian background once it's on the road.
