Passat (B5) :: 2001 V6 Clutch Doesn't Start To Grab Until Almost All The Way Up
2001 V6 passat. the clutch doesn't start to grab until it is almost all the way up. there is maybe 1/2 inch of pedal travel where the clutch is actually grabbing. how much travel should there be when the clutch is actually grabbing?
This is a hydraulic clutch setup, right? so i was thinking best case scenario, it needs fluid or to be bled for air, worst is a new slave cylinder. 100K miles on it, engine ran strong and the clutch didn't slip at all.
Accent MC (2006-11) :: Clutch Gone - How To Replace It

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2011 - Way To Replace Clutch?
Ive got a 2001 MKIV Golf GTI. Recently I've had some clutch problems, I kept returning to the car and finding the clutch on the floor. After a tow My mechanic managed to get it back after a lot of pumping and messing around, and told me It needed a Slave Cylinder. So that night after driving home (clutch wasn't feeling good) I came out and found the clutch on the floor again.
So I went out - got a new genuine slave cylinder and replaced it myself. But now I cant for the life of me bleed the clutch - I've bled brakes plenty of times but never a clutch. I am doing it manually, I've read online some guides.
1) Crack the bleeder & push pedal down... because its got that spring, it stays on the floor.
2) Close the bleeder, pull clutch up with hand...
Ive been doing this over and over and over, but nothing happens... fluid isn't even coming out of the bleeder. Im guessing this could be because the slave has no fluid in it and there is an Airlock?? I want to try to avoid getting another tow truck.
Ford Ranger / B-Series :: 1998 - How Hard Is It To Replace A Clutch
I think the time is near for a new clutch in my 98 Ranger, 2wd/ 5 spd. How tough of a job is this? I've changed the one in my 66 Mustang years ago but things were less complicated then.

i replaced my a/c compressor on my 2006 f-250 2 yrs ago but had not refilled with r134..only the pag oil. Now i decide to refill seeing my wife uses the truck and compressor would not engage, i was able to bypass it by removing relay and jumping it with a paperclip. Compressor started up but seems to have seized on pully. the pulley seems fine and still turning freely. I can no longer turn it manually when truck is stopped and i could before i jumped it. could the clutch only be replaced or does the bearing and pulley have to be replaced

I've replaced clutches, brakes, timing belts, water pumps, radiators, etc, etc. My 2003 Elantra has 65,000 miles on it and a few years ago I tried to replace the PCV valve with no luck. The PCV valve is threaded into a copper/metal ring that is pressure fitted into the valve cover. When I tried to remove the PCV valve the copper/metal ring spun thus not allowing me to unscrew the PCV valve out of the copper/metal ring. Now when I try to unscrew the PCV valve the copper/metal ring spins in the plastic. I can't get the PCV valve out to replace it.

Looking for a detailed procedure for replacing the A/C compressor on 2001 Taurus with a 3.0L Vulcan engine (any references would be also useful...) ? I have the Haynes manual but the procedure there is not detailed enough to me. It seems that I have to remove the PS pump to get to the compressor, or the passenger side cooling fan, but the Haynes manual does not mention them.
Should I also replace the Accumulator, or not necessarily? I have heard some people writing that it has to be done, while others say that it is not necessary.
Passat (B5) :: Way To Replace Oil Pan?
So... I found a pot-hole the other day and I'll be replacing the oil pan tomorrow. It's on a '00 Passat V6 FWD, any tips/tricks or things I should look out for? Do I have to drop the sub-frame, lift the engine, etc... what's the easiest way to go about this? I'll post pictures of the pan tomorrow, but here's a teaser:
Couldn't get underneath to see it yet, but I'm pretty damn sure there's a big hole. And hoping that's all it damaged.

View 1 RepliesPassat (B5) :: Way To Replace Control Arm?
I'm trying to replace the upper control arms on my wifes '00 Passat. I'm having trouble getting the bolt that holds both the upper ball joints to the upright (stearing knuckle, what ever you want to call it) out. I've tried the typical PB blaster, and heat approach. What I can't tell is if that bolt is treaded into part of the upright or not? Is this something I should just be able to punch out with a hammer?

Have 2001 suburban with the 5.3. Mechanic has replaced EGR valve 3Xs. Error code specifies "replace EGR valve". Each time car runs fine for 4-6 weeks (500-1000 miles) and then service engine light comes on. Shortly thereafter the car will not idle correctly (under 1,000 rpm) and will die at stop. I think the EGR valves are getting clogged up with carbon. Car has 130,000 miles on it.

Okay so yesterday I had to replace my battery because it died just when I was trying to leave for work. Got back on the road it everything was fine. Coming home last night I got a CEL, I figured it was my normal p2177 because of my Forge WINTake that I can't seem to find a fix for. I went to clear the code because I have a fulling loaded APR Stage 1 ECU. Now it won't clear. So this morning I attempted to change programs and it won't change. Should I just go have it reflashed?
