MkV body stiffening for 09/10?
Published (2009-11-08 14:59:00)
It may just have been the way your 06 was. That individual car did what you described. Next time you are at a gtg or near have a chance to compare with a 05.5 to 06.5 make a side by side comparison. It would be interesting to know if there is a real difference. Although, if they used a slightly heavier gage metal in the forming of the floor pan, it would not be apparent from the casual first glance.

I vaguely remember the start of speculation on the balance shaft issue with the BHW TDI's (04 - 05 Passats). I own one. Seems like that issue morphed into a genuine VW design issue that VW has somewhat ignored to responsibly deal with and has cost some members thousands of dollars to fix. Let's not get all caught up in data and thread ramblings, but try to keep this fuel system "issue" under review. After all, who...

No, that wasn't the point I was asking. When doing CAM R&R lifters and bearings is a must. But I wonder if oilhammer has done only bearings on at least one of those high mileage cars during the car's life..

Did they rotate the tires at 10K service? Might want to do that again and see if the sound changes or goes away. It is unlikely to be the differential in my experience. If not the tires, it could be a wheel bearing.

Very interesting observation. I know there were some structural changes to the '10 Golf ( MkVI platform) but the '10 Jetta is still on the MkV platform.

I did mine last week, I put in 6 liters and got ~1 1/2 back out after heat
up cycle. I drained it back into the empty containers as it drained back
out. I'm sure your fine. Directions call for only putting in 5 1/2 liters,
but I was BS'ing and wasn't paying attention, oh-well.

Yes, air intake temps here.
No boost pressure, unless someone here can tell me how to find it!

Fuel pump let go?
There is no way a pump form any station pumped metal. IIRC, the fuel that is not used is recirculated from the filter can back to the tank. SO if the fuel pump fails, I could see that being the "generator" for this.
Bummer.
Keep us informed.

Throwing something into the mix here, and it is only speculation. The fuel filter filters from the outside-in, correct? That being the case, then isn't it possible that the metal particles aren't making it into the actual fuel system? Certainly the presence of metal in the fuel filter canister is disheartening, but it may be "normal" for these engines to wear like this early on. Now, if there...

I suggest you get legal advice, but initially you need to tell the stealer that he is full of crap. If you don't get satisfaction then get on to VWoA and start making a fuss.

Sad day for my TDI
So as some of you know I have a 2009 TDI that I have done quite a bit of cosmetic work to since it was new. I absolutely love the car and it now has 9000 miles on it. Well, the imfamous check engine light came on while my wife was coming home from helping some flood victims in our area last Tuesday. I got out the VCDS and checked it and it said "no ...

Either my TPMS never worked, or TIRERACK is generous.
Or it takes a while to get a TPMS alert?
I just put on the wheels/vw hubcaps/ winterforce tires on the car, and drove it 5 miles to see how it drove with the new sneakers. No TPMS alert!
How long would it take to set that error? Was fully expecting to see it right away, and then vcds it out.
So if I got lucky...

We have had a few pretty cold mornings already and my 09 takes about 10 minutes tops and it's nice and toasty. I leave my house and get on the highway and in about 5-10 minutes, I am at 190 degrees on the antifreeze and blowing nice hot air. I read that these cars take a while to heat up but I have not experienced that on a 35 degree morning.

GoFaster has 230'000 km and his cam is EXCELLENT.
If I were you, I'd use nothing but ULSD plus oil changes (with Motul 505.01 5w40, just a personal preference) every 7500 miles.

JSW with Plasti-Dip Grille
Been a while since I've put pics up...and I've been meaning to do it since I got tinted anyway, but I wanted to post up what the front end looks like w/ Plasti-Dip.
Personally, at least with a lighter color, the chrome grille was killing me. This stuff is about $8 a can @ Lowes, and I used about 2 cans. The finish comes out looking a lot...
