VW / Audi / Porsche Repairs
⋅Timing Belts
On most VWs and Audis the timing belt should be replaced every 100,000 miles (or 8 years). Neglecting this can cause the timing belt to break, jump or slip and cause the engine to need much more serious repair – in some cases even require a new engine.
⋅Water Pump
A not-properly functioning water pump could cause the engine to overheat and damage the head gasket. There are several ways the water pump could fail (leak, bearings, impailer, etc). Any fluctuation in coolant temperature should be immediately addressed.
⋅Wheel Bearing, CV Boots, Tie Rod Ends, Etc
Very often strange clunking noises or grinding while turning is one of these things. All of them are relatively common and quick repairs.
⋅VW/Audi/Porsche Transmission Service
All of the DSG Transmissions are equipped with a Dual Mass Flywheel and will eventually become noisy and need to be replaced. Failure to replace could result in major damage to the transmission (gearbox).
⋅Engine Rebuild / Service
It is crucial to address all leaks, noises and rattles that come from the engine compartment as soon as they are noticed. Failure to do so could result in major damage.
⋅Ignition Coils / Coil Packs
Flashing “Check Engine Light” could indicate Ignition Coil failure.
⋅Mass Airflow Sensor
Rough idle, misfire, stalling, low power… all could be symptoms of a MAS that has gone bad.

Most people think of “Chip Tuning” in terms of adding power, but with most tunes now, especially with Tdi’s customers are seeing up to 8mpg gains. One of my customers did a Malone 1+ tune on his 2012 Golf Tdi and now sees 55mpg regularly on the interstate. Feel free to ask about your car and we can see what can be done.
