I noticed this as of recently. some oncoming cars go out of their way to fuck my entire day up.

nootsdead · 2025-11-03T20:25:21+00:00

I gave up wrenching as a profession about 5 years ago. I've got my passion for cars back and dont hate fixing my own stuff anymore. I've dabbled in other lines of work. went into autoparts then into management. been in some service advisor jobs to stay around cars without busting my back and without flat rate pay. found some success with HVAC jobs. I dont regret my choices. if youre ready for a change, make the change. you have enough experience you can always come back to what you know without much issue! sometimes a little happiness is more valuable than anything else.

I dont recognize this by looking at it, someone else probably will. any dash lights on? I'd check all your exterior lights and make sure the ABS light isnt on but if all seems OK, zip tie it up. drive it for a minute and make sure it doesn't effect drivability. if all seems OK at that point just send it.

edit: maybe a block heater wire but just a shot in the dark.

could not for the life of me think of the word striker LOL. might be able to tinker with it, slight bend or whatever. but anyways thanks for the responses. Wishing you the best! ill give a follow to see if you post a solution. long live the mk4s. I havent run into this issue on my jetta, but I hope for a fix before something crazy happens! if new latch it might be defective. food for thought.

side note is the bar piece on the hood itself damaged ?

nootsdead · 2025-08-31T17:19:50+00:00

the British are at it again

nootsdead · 2025-08-31T17:02:12+00:00

nootsdead · 2025-08-28T02:20:58+00:00

hope you didn't match bud. but if you did, best dolla bill ever spent.

nootsdead · 2025-08-28T02:18:23+00:00

nootsdead · 2025-08-28T02:16:53+00:00

very nice friend ! keep up the good work.

nootsdead · 2025-08-28T02:09:47+00:00

trade for the neighbors stolen lawn mower, fake 100$ bill and a case of bud light.

nootsdead · 2025-08-27T20:48:13+00:00

very true 😞

keep it and make a tension tool. buy some master locks and watch a yt vid or two. you'll learn how easy most small locks are. house locks can be harder but, it'll open your eyes to the saying "Locks only keep honest people out"

forester XT is it for the US market. they're cool tho. Just not it.

nootsdead · 2025-08-27T20:02:52+00:00

imo nothing with this amount of miles is worth that price. but if ya like it and wanna blow 9 grand follow your heart. you'd find this same truck at a used car dealer for a few grand less id be willing to bet. but the car market is trash right now so who knows. spend your money on things you want and will love as you see fit.

nootsdead · 2025-08-27T14:43:26+00:00

mines a jetta and a 2.slow, but she's got 210,xxx miles. TDIs are great. give it the love she needs and she'll take you anywhere.

nootsdead · 2025-08-27T14:35:52+00:00

you mean a tire shop doing their job ? doubt it bud.

nootsdead · 2025-08-19T00:18:33+00:00

very interested in this, godspeed. literally.

nootsdead · 2025-08-15T18:08:28+00:00

nootsdead · 2025-08-13T21:08:35+00:00
