ok so ive posted a thread before asking this question some what. i asked about a noise i could hear in my engine and i assumed it was an injector knock/tick but everyone on here told me it was a lifter knock. i also had a local shop look at it and they told me it was an injector knock so i...

well guys thanks for your help i got the squeal fixed. i took my car to a local shop and had them just look at it and he said that the belt was too loose and told me to unplug my alternator and then start my car after the thing had been sitting there for a while. so i tried that and the squeal...

ok so about half an hour ago i went out and started my car and had left the heater on from this morning when i drove it and it started squealing badly and as soon as i shut off the heater it quit so i think its my a/c belt

you could also do an upgraded exhaust manifold after you get the bigger turbo so you kno it'll fit. also you could maybe think about a performance intake manifold but those are pretty pricey. you can also upgrade your shifter and if you upgrade all that stuff you're thinking bout doing you'll...

the alternator belt?? idk its been a while since i looked at it so i cant remember exactly

as far as i kno the ac belt is stil the factory oe belt. now when u guys are talking about 3 belts whats the other one??

so u think it would be worth it to replace the other belt because i already replaced the alternator belt

so ultimately im looking at at least replacing something whether its a crank pulley or a belt right??

ok so then how could i distinguish that as the problem rather then just a bad belt?? try the wd-40 thing??

so then the harmonic balancer is the crank pulley??

ok first of all my car is a 5 speed so it doesn't have a harmonic balancer. second i changed the alternator belt because i knew it was the alternator squealing at first because it would squeal a lot at start up because the alternator was kicking in and would squeal until it was satisfied now...

yea well i would rather not temporarely fix id want it permanent

there is a squeal that happens eveytime i start my car. i've changed my alternator belt already and it helped it for a little while but then it came back and im thinking i may have over tightened the belt. when i start it it squeals for about 3 seconds or so and then stops and doesn't usually...

well i have searched this topic and i found alot of info about the spec clutches and that they were generally pretty good yet i also heard some instances where they were bad which was the same for the act and i havent much good about any of the other ones really and the specs look to be cheaper...

i have a 95 tsi awd and my clutch has been slipping for a while now and its already doing it in 2nd gear so i know its getting bad. i am looking at upgrading to a performance clutch and flywheel combo and i am wondering what would be the best to go with??? i may possible upgrade my turbo and...

so right now its not something i should really worry about too much until i upgrade my turbo....by the way im probably gonna go with the big evo III eventually when i can afford it

well i had my car looked at by a local shop and he had said that i have a lifter going out and that if i keep fresh oil in it it'll be fine but he also said i have 2 injectors going out. my car only has 60,000+ miles on it and ive changed oil regularly on it since i got it, also i changed the...

ok i'm new to this site but have had my 95 tsi awd for about 7 months now. for a few months ive been hearing a tick coming from my engine and at first i thought it was a valve knock but then felt my injectors and could feel the tick. i've read the only thread about this problem and it didn't...
