HI all: I'm embarking on an LED projector build. Before I do that I'd like to get the coding changed. I'm not sure I'm all about buying a VCDS setup just to change the setup from halogen to xenon in the car. Anyone near charlotte who can help?

I love my MKV so much I kept it when I bought my MK7. We parked it at my parents place and they would use it when they were in Charlotte. They aren't here as much as they used to and they are going to start staying w/ us. That means renting out their townhouse and that means the garage is going...

From an electronics standpoint I guess ... why not? You'd need to run a whole other wire to the front wouldn't you? Seems like more work than just finding the wire. Reverse wire is not that hard to trace, just start at the bulb. I wish I could remember the color in mine. Random tidbit of...

I love this car, but she really shows her age when driving at night. The headlights are pretty terrible. I'm considering a range of options. On the close end is doing a headlight restoration on the lenses again (did one about 5 yrs ago) and getting some different bulbs. Is anyone running an LED...

AHH! Problem solved. Good thing I'm a packrat! Found the envelope with stuff I kept from when I bought this thing. Had a sticker in it with the REAL serial number (correct length, begins with VW etc.) AND I found a sticker with the code .... phew.

I bought an MK7 about a year ago, but I just couldn't get rid of the MKV. Needless to say it doesn't get driven a lot and like an idiot I let the battery go flat. Now the radio needs a code. It's an RMT300 that I bought about 2 years ago. I'm sincerely ashamed to say that I don't know where the...

Well... I bought an MK7.5 and the wheels weren't my style. These were removed at the dealer before I even left the lot. They are in my garage in boxes. $600 for the set. It appears my pics are too large. Here is the Craiglist ad until I resize them...

Well... just like on everyone else's MKV, my door locks are acting up. Symptoms started with the car not knowing if the front driver's side door is open or not. The car thought it was always closed. This wasn't a huge problem since really the only side effect is the dome light never turned...

So I had my hand on the trigger ready to pounce here: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-volkswagen-audi-parts/rmt-300-mp3-bluetooth-radio-kit/6q0051228fkt/?gclid=CJjW3qmn4NACFdCCswodGpsPJQ I figure - hey it's ECS, I have bought from them before, no issues. So at the last minute I decided to...

I have 4 Catalunya wheels. From what I understand these originally came on the 2006-2007 Passat, but these were on my 2008 Rabbit when I bought it. I prefer a 17" rim on these cars, so that's why they came off. Wheels are straight, no bends etc. 2 wheels are perfect. 1 wheel has 1 small...

This is for a 2008 Rabbit. 1: My TPMS light is on. Much like my Sienna, this happened when it got cold. Will the light come off by itself when the problem is fixed or do I need to reset it? The car doesn't have the TPMS reset button that I see is available as an accessory (the one by the...

I picked up a set of Karthoums. 2 of them have a small amount of rash. Does anyone know of a color that matches the titainum karthoums? It seems ordering the actual paint is impossible. Has anyone had a body shop copy the color?

Found set. Thanks.

I have an 08' with an auto trans. It has 72K on it - I just bought it a few months ago. What's the general consensus on servicing these things? 72K seems to be well short of the "point of no return" and like the rest of humanity I don't believe in lifetime fluids.... On cold days it takes a...

So it seems this is a common problem - what I can't figure out is how many "flavors" of this problem there are and if they all have the same fault. There was a very useful thread on soldering broken connections inside the door switch, but that guy said he had alarm problems and couldn't roll...

My Wabbit has the same "nose" as the one in this picture (just a random pic i pulled online). I'm trying to determine if those honeycomb grilles with openings for fogs will fit into this bumper. Any input? Thanks

I am specifying 4 door because I do not know if the part numbers are different. Anyway... mine didn't come with one and I'm not spending $250 for one. I don't want it THAT bad. Just seeing if anyone here has one. Grey is preferable Black is fine Any other color I'll take a look at if the...

This is just a "HI" post. Just bought a 2008 "Rabbit" as those crazy Americans decided to call them for a couple of years. I have never had one registered in my name, but my parents have owned 8 since the 70's and I have borrowed several of them. Hence the fact that I still call it a Golf. I...
