So I have discovered some strange "mods" after the previous owner of my car, but this tops everything. The other day I changed the brake disk/pads and whent ahead with the bleeding. right side whent ok but the nipple on the left was broken off..or so i thought. Got an extractor sett and quickly ...

Update: Called Autoglass (thanks Funky diver) and arranged an apointment. The guy said that the crack was over 1 cm in the drivers area on the window so he would not recomend fixing it because of possible MOT fail. I convinced him that I had nothing to loose and he agreed to fix it. £50 and the ...

I would be happy if I could pay £200 for a windscreen. We have a site here that displays all used parts from every scrapyard in norway,at the moment there are only 10-12 parts for the mk2 in the entire country! not a windscreen offcourse. This is just my luck, just changed my clutch and changed all ...

Hi. So I met a truck the other day and my windscreen got cracked from this stupid rock. Since I live in Norway there are no donor cars atm. I read somewhere on the internett that scirocco used the same windscreen as the golf and polo, can anybody confirm that? I have an 87' mk2. windscreen nr: E20 ...

i thought i remember correct.
so this is my first swap buy, could you give me some pointer on what to look for when I looking at the engine tomorrow? Oil-leakage? what else?
all he said was its a 16v, kompressor and it had been in a rallye. what engine could it be?

without the "limited edition" the rallye was originally a 8v, wasnt it?

The engine is currently in a corrado, but he said the engine originally was from a rallye.
IF what he is saying is correct, that it is a 16v w/kompressor..chances are that its one of those rare "limited edition" engines right?

interesting.
Tried googeling "vw G90" with no luck so had to ask.
will ask the dude on monday when I look at the engine.
Thanks guys, really appriciate it!

around 150 hp he said.
sounds fishy, i dont know. I'm gonna have a look at that engine hopefully on monday.
Is there a G90 in the VW engine lineup at all?

Have come in contact with a guy selling a "G90" engine, planning a swap in my mk2. I have not seen the engine yet but cant find any informatio on this engine. He said it was a 16v w/ kompressor.

Why cant I fint any info on this engine on the internett?

My 87' mk2 needs a new engine, the old 1.8i "JH" has done its job. Found a local selling an "RP" passat engine, never heard of this one but according to this picture it is identical to my JH: http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fil:VW_4Zylinder_1.8L_8V_Motor_mit_Nockenwelle.jpg the specs are the same: 1.8 ...

In the last few days a new problem has come up with my 87'mk2.
When I put the car in first and take out the clutch there is a rumbeling feeling and the car jumps a bit for 1/2 second, when the clutch is all out it works fine. until I change to second gear, same problem there.

gearbox or clutch?

Thanks guys for the help. Got it pritty close but will make a 4 wheel check apointment at my local garage to make it perfect!

anyone?..need to fix this real quick.

is it the big nut close to the end of the tie rod?
