I know some folks looking for a headliner.

SE Wisconsin, near Milwaukee

Still have headliner, it was worth saving

I too am sad to see this site go away... and it sure sounds like its a done deal.

From what I have seen it has been a very informative group of experienced people concerned about helping each other out. Thanks for that.

With that said, what is the next best thing / site available as a substitute?

yep, it is just a matter of swapping cables. Thanks for the help.

does anyone have new Bosch VE pump delivery valve sealing washers , that could measure the ID / OD / thickness? I just bought a project with a leaky pump, and I think someone put the wrong sealing washers in the head. Thanks in advance.

have a 4 speed trans from a diesel rabbbit / caddy for sale near Milwaukee, Wi

bought it for the engine/trans, parting out the rest of the car. Pm me with needs

I have no objection to swapping over to manually adjusted cable, in fact I prefer it. I just am looking for whats different PREVENTING a swap (or a means to work around it) between the two cables. Its a daily driver, otherwise I would just dive into (and sideline) the car. From the little info that ...

I needed to change the head O-ring on another VE pump while it is on the car, previously I used the procedure from libbybapa (thank you!) http://www.vwdieselparts.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5311&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 but wanted a little more forgiving procedure to hold the part...

Does anyone know for sure if the two can be interchanged on a given car? If it matters it is a 1986 Jetta 1.6D. I have a self adjusting cable that has a mind of its own and want to switch over to manual adjustment style. Seems to me that if the pedal assembly would be common between the two versions...

you are 100% correct there, Bob - last night I started eng/trans removal disassembly and before I got it out I scrutinized that self adjusting cable closer (while grille and core support etc. were off so the clutch arm was completely exposed. What I previously described as freeplay was actually just...

I recall the Bentley manual listed some wear limits, but not the thickness wear limit for a clutch disc. When swapping in a different 1.6D engine, I had the self-adjusting clutch cable off. When I reconnected it clutch would not grab at all with clutch pedal completely out. My Bentley manual mention...

I assume the misfire is due to compression loss, since a large amount of pressure is being sent to the coolant reservoir as soon as the engine is started - way too much and too fast to be due to thermal expansion. I haven't opened it up yet, I need to pick up a compression tester adapter before I op...

the vent line was the first thing I checked, and it was still flowing. Mine has a pretty serious issue , it is pushing coolant out as soon as the engine is started, and engine is misfiring. I suspect the head gasket is shot thus the questions about which one(s) is/are best.
