    Low oil pressure warning in heavy cornering?

    This morning I got on the freeway entrance ramp. The ramp is a large clover leaf type of ramp. Most people would take it at 30MPH, but I enjoy whipping around it around 45-50MPH. Well, this morning I went at it at about that speed and towards the last 3/4 of the corner a 'Stop, no oil pressure'...

    Are VW hubcaps universal?

    Are the OE VW hubcaps universal? I assume they all have those retention clip style attachment system right? I'm planning to purchase some generic steel wheels for winter but would like to buy some OE VW hubcaps.

    CEL and Engine revving on it's own in idle - Rabbit

    My Black Rabbit - correction

    So, I detailed my Rabbit back in October (my first correction) but the day that I was planning to winterize my paint snow fell. My car being a daily driver that sits outside all winter took a toll. Anyone that lives in a snow climate knows how snow can come in a very icy form so as hard as I...

    Rabbit power increases when romped on?

    I can't believe I haven't looked on the forum about this since I've had my car. But I just had to finally check. Do you Rabbit owners notice your engine perks up when being romped on a bit? This isn't my imagination, but I swear the ECU fuel mapping changes when I push the car harder. I...
