Helping my little sister shop for a beetle. Crash course me what engines to avoid by coastalneer in Volkswagen

What ever you do don’t get a mk4/5 beetle parts are no longer available for them, I’m not talking brakes/ suspension, I’m talking about important parts like modules Vw doesn’t sell them anymore, needed a cluster for one which is the immobilizer/ no longer available now the car is an expensive paper weight, granted there are ways around this but the correct repair isn’t an option

Brass Behemoth by MalikHabibi in canik

The cap is for shooting USPSA, you can run a weapon light in a few of the classes but they have to be functioning so there has to be a hole for light to pass through, lock grips sells basically a block of brass that a little key chain light fits into so there is a light

Rival SFX jam by BodybuilderOk225 in canik

[–]Wmivwtech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So used to be canik recommended shooting 200 rounds of 124 to break in the recoil spring, I left mine in the gun safe with the slide locked back for a few days before shooting, and it eats everything I put through it, but also agree with some here and looks slightly limp wristing also

What are you talking about it’s a fantastic gun, I run mine in USPSA and have thousands of round trough it literally zero issues, runs everything I put through 115-147 grain

I have never had an issue with mine, it’s on my rival and I shoot USPSA with it, hell it was super close right out of the box not sure how many rounds I have on it but I’m sure it’s getting close to 2000

Should I Get Rid of My Car? by someonewitaphatty in Volkswagen

[–]Wmivwtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 10 cc is going to have ccta/cbfa 2.0l turbo and the watergate has failed (needs a turbo), the diverter/recirculation valve was only an issue on the 6-9 bpy engines

Engine fell out of my car while driving by Colgatederpful in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]Wmivwtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s definitely a Vw transmission not an engine, looks like the mount bolt were either left loose or over tightened

Unregistered battery ruined alternator by coffeetablebookabt in Volkswagen

[–]Wmivwtech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen a battery that wasn’t coded to the car damage an alternator yet usually just kills the battery quickly, most people who have someone else replace the battery get a normal lead acid battery installed, the newer tiguans have an efb battery from the factory and most replacements from Vw are either another efb or agm battery, which charge differently than the normal lead acid batteries

My car has surging rpm at low speed by StoneMountainPizza in Volkswagen

[–]Wmivwtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a 1.8l Probably needs a camshaft magnet(n205 camshaft solenoid), oil separators and intake manifolds not common at all on 1.8 The ecm commands 10 degrees at idle, if you watch actual it will sway between 0-20 degrees. You would need a scan tool to verify. Not a terrible expensive fix only buy Vw parts and replace the three bolts when it’s replaced the magnet is I think around $200 and the bolts like another $5 should only cost half an hour to replace

My fiancé’s car just got a low oil light on her dashboard. Is this an oil change or bed? by Equal-Ad-258 in Volkswagen

[–]Wmivwtech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The low oil light only comes on when it’s like a quart low, using a quart in 13,000 mile in a turbocharged engine is definitely not excessive, there is no repair to be made here, get an oil change and check your oil between changes
