Thank you Sachein for the nice comment. I’m glad that you found the videos
helpful. Take care!
You’re awesome!!! Thank you very much for the videos.
I do like paper dealers manuals, but they are sadly insufficient in many
models. Occasionally I have found the electronic copies like alldata or
mitchell to be better, because many repairs follow a common failure theme.
It helps if a TSB is produced, which would never show up in an old paper
copy.
VW logo should be ‘why make it simple? we can make it complicated and proud
of it’. Since my rant on plastic has become redundant, let’s rant on Torx
bolts. I know personally VW owners that curse a lot that stupid metal
economy. They could equally make round head bolts with a round hole from
factory…
Yes, I agree with you Dave. On this occasion, I do have Mitchell On-Demand
and sadly, its docs weren’t much better, yet its wiring diagrams are
superb. On the other hand, Alldata seems to just photocopy what’s in the
manual. And you’re right, TSB’s will never show up with the hard copy which
is where electronic docs outweigh the hard copies. Thanks for the comment
Dave.
Yup you’re right Joe! I’ve never seen so many Torx bolts in the last few
years on cars. And they are on the domestic models over here too. Maybe,
they’re cheaper or something; I don’t know what happened to the
old-fashioned bolt. Thanks for commenting Joe.
I was trying to figure out how to remove this lock until I found your
video, Thank you very much.
Hi Alan. Glad to help you out with the door lock. Stay tuned as I’ve got
the parts, (plastic bracket and pins) to install tomorrow. I’ll shoot the
video showing it going back together. Thanks for the comment Alan!
