Complete rubbish lol. And its likely an SD slot not a SIM slot. You can store maps on a fast SD if you want, but you just install any android nav app these days. What you would do is put on the likes of copilot, and configure the app to store map data on the SD card instead of android default locat...

I have purchased some B6 Monte Carlo wheels for my B5.5

Yes... it has a slot for Gps.. apparently you download maps from Google play store... but it needs to be on a micro SD. I may just mirror my phone when I get a suitable lead..

Here's some pics I took when I did mine if they help.

What's the red pen thingy? Is it some kind of abrasive?

I had success in taking mine apart and simply cleaning the brass contacts up. They get oxidised up over time like points in a dizzy. Worth a try. Sent from my brain Telepathetically... Hi... thanks.. I tried to take apart as you do... managed to pull out the spring etc but couldn't get into brass c...

turns out to fit the 'new type' switch Not to touch pedal.. just push into position turn switch clockwise until click is heard then a further small turn to seat.. Vw to buy switch tomorrow and 377 relay for wipers.. seems no one bothers with rain sensing relay... bet they'll sting me for the relay!?...

Tbh ive never had to sort a bad one, just remembering what others have regaled about doing it right and doing it wrong. good advice would be make regular use of the search tools. :P Im just participating as I feel good community users should, if I can help I might help, if I feel like being nice I ...

If were talking the B5.5 the "sport" is about 15mm lower and barely different shocks, if at all, and the AVF version engine if its Diesel, which is almost identical to the AWX but a different torque map and slightly bigger clutch and 6 speed gearbox. That is about it lol. Its the right on...

I would water test first, might be the problem might not. Regarding your door handle pull. The bowden cables socket into slots and mounting guide/holes on the back of the inner door card handle mechanism, if the mounting tab is broken youll definitely have difficulty. Not sure what new ones might c...

Once you put them right, they stay right within reason, shame VW put the flaws into the design that they did, but all are correctable. It was a great design, especially the front suspension, but that said a full front arm replacement is a significant task as a result, and some alignment techs just ...

Old trim on these can get very brittle, just wait until you take the glove box out and all the mounting tabs break off. :hyst Trim is always a PITA on modern vehicles, even once you learn where all the fixings are hidden. These days I will avoid doing minor jobs one by one and accrue a boxfull of b...
