Well guys, The day has come where I have given up the MKV lifestyle for the foreseeable future. I have sold the 3rd mkv that I've ever owned. It was a damn good mkv, even though it was really neglected by previous owners. I put a lot of work into it over the past 1.5 years to get it...

I have two used in tank lpfp's One is OEM with about 50k on it - 150$ shipped The other is ÜRO with about 5k on it - 75$ shipped Both work flawlessly. Both come with gaskets. OEM: ÜRO:

I need this bolt badly, and I have no idea what size it is. EVOMS refuses to answer their phone or return emails.

I know it's a long shot, but what the hell. I live in southeastern NC, and have a Tornado Red GTI. I would love to find someone with a Tornado Red Rabbit who would like to swap front ends with me. My Bumper has your typical flaws that come with a bumper that is 11 years old, but it's not...

So, I bought one of those 12$ ebay reverse camera kits... the one that replaces one of your license plate lights. Thanks to Bryan06GTI for his awesome write up on how to do this install. You can find it here if you need it: http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=145045 I did a few...

Anyone have one laying around they'd like to get rid of? Pierburg or OEM

So, in my 10 years of owning a mkv, I've never seen this done once. I searched for hours for a few nights in a row and didn't see anything about it. Basically, my oem fsi ko3s hot side (exhaust manifold) was defective resulting in bad cracking (see pictures). This led to boost loss issues...

So, my hotside on my turbo has a 5" long crack giving me serious boost leak issues. Is it possible to just swap the hotside? Or am I going to have to buy a new turbo? It looks like they come apart, and my shop has some spare manifolds/hot sides... I just want to make sure this is...

I was having boost leak issues, and my shop found that my cold side had a 5" crack in the cast. Luckily they have a spare manifold laying around so we are gonna swap them out. Just sucks :( Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
