Hi, I've been having a very hard time getting into gear when first starting the car. Though after it warms up it seems to improve, then after driving for about 20 min it starts shifting smoothly again. Last night leaving work I couldn't get into gear at all and now the shifter just wobbles...

Hi guys, Having problem with 2001 Beetle. Have just replaced all brake pads and front discs and replaced brake fluid. Noticed brakes were really spongy so bled fluid and replaced again but still have same problem. Is this likely to be air in master cylinder? Pretty sure there is no air in rest...

To all: Looking for a used roof rack ... to haul my bikes around... Let me know what kind you got...features, etc.. and how $$$.... I figure there are quite a few out there since VW used to push their roof racks along with TREK bikes on some of their high-end A3's...

Due to some serious corrosion, it looks like I'm going to have to replace the positive battery cable (or just the terminal if possible?) on my 2001 Jetta GLS V6. I can see that it connects to what I assume is the solenoid, but for the life of me I can't see how you actually disconnect it. Anyone...

I'm considering a VW GTI Mark V and was wondering if the dealers are playing the extortion game on the price? I'm also considering a Mustang and at least with the GT, the Ford dealers are asking sticker price +.... What's the deal with the GTI Mark V? Is this a high demand car or are people...

When I drive at 30 km/hr around a left hand bend (Sharpish), the steering wheel moves (Shakes) slowly. This do not happen when I drive around a Right hand Bend of approximately the same radius.
