[pos85gli]

got her all cleaned up and took her out for a spin..





i have a couple questions though... is there any way to get rid of that god for saken vaccume locking system? mine is all screwed up. my doors dont lock. and also, anybody know where i could get some reasonably prices coils? this cars like 4x4 status. mind you guys this is my first car newer than a 97.. i traded my 1981 honda for it. lmao

Nice. Looks like someone already started "touching" it.

Blasphemy.

im riding on raceland coilovers in my passat. with the weight of the passat they ride really well and only cost around $400. look up the kit for a mk2 or mk3 golf or jetta. the only thing needed to make them work is the lower rear shock bolt and nut from a mk2(85-92) or mk3(93-98) golf or jetta

if you dont like the central locking system simply unplug the pump. not sure where its located since i have a wagon but its most likely somewhere in the trunk

ehh kinda. i got the car fax, it was stolen 4 years ago in maryland. and rebuilt, hence why the lips missing.

You can go with the Racelands, but if you're willing to spend the extra $100 I suggest the Solowerks. IMO, they ride a bit better than the Racelands.

As for your central locking, if the pump is working then you might have a few vacuum lines that have come undone. No better way to get acquainted with a car than to start ripping it apart.

if i were to unplug the main pump in the trunk would i be able to lock my car? and as for coils. i think i just gonna pick up some racelands. i just wasnt sure if i could swing em on my car..

Manually, yes.

Nice car, and welcome to the ever so small but slowly growing passat section of the forums! I like the kamei grill

Stick with the locking system you got, its one reliable system.
Plus, tearing apart everything to switch to an electrical system is way more work.

If your lucky, its just the cental pump in the trunk, if not, check on which door closes and which do not.
