Hello, my name is Marcos, I'm from Argentina, but I've been living in Orlando, Florida for 6 years. I had to learn English very well to understand everything. It's the only video in the entire app that really explains things super well. I wanted to let you know what these videos mean to me. I have my first GTI swap project, and I finished it yesterday, thanks to you. Thank you for the excellent explanation and dedication. Everything you do is not in vain. Thank you very much. God bless you.

There are different kinds that have different working time but the 8115 is my favorite, working time is listed as 90 minutes. I find that is pretty accurate. After 90 minutes, the nozzle started getting clogged too.

There must be a reason why VW engineers included holes in the door panels and then covered them with foam. Taping over these holes might create other issues. I'm wondering why they didn't simply use solid door panels without any holes.
@brutongaster8184Ай бұрын
I bet the reason they covered them in foam is for noise absorption. It seems to me VW is always trying to do fancy stuff that isn't necessarily better for the lifetime mechanical operation of the vehicle
@brutongaster818419 күн бұрын
And I'm sure the holes in the the plates is so that the foam adheres better to itself on both sides and to the plates

So much for superior German engineering. What kind of an idiot uses a foam that they know will degrade in as little as fifteen years. Having no heat, and in some areas no AC, makes the car worthless, makes it a hell to drive. A friend of mine wraps herself in blankets when she gets in her bug in the winter. Then you tell us that they use an inferior type of plastic for most of the parts that also degrades to brittle in a short time. The one shop that quoted the owner four thousand dollars to do this job obviously just plain did not want to do this job. That tells you a lot of how much a pain in the arse this job is. Sell your German engineered vehicle and never buy anything like it again!

Thank you so much good sir I wouldn't have done it without your video! I undertook the fix today and it took me close to 6 hours from start to finish. The big plastic thing in front of the blend doors was the worst technical thing I had to deal with in my whole life. Taking off the two bloody screws and putting them back on took more than an hour alone. But anyway, it was all worth it! I can feel the heat wave inside my golf mk4 again! Thanks again and best wishes!

Hey have a couple of questions has to how I go about wiring my clutch pedal I’m using a my manual as a donor and I’m using the manual ecu, engine harness and cluster. I bought a golf with an auto with no motor or tranny or ecu or Tom I’m just not sure how I go about wiring my clutch pedal
@hestermannmotorwerks3 ай бұрын
if you use the engine bay harness out of the manual donor, you won't have to change anything in the engine bay. But the harness in the car (specifically the clutch pedal) will still need alterations as per this video. You will have to sort out where the wiring differences are between the two harnesses. Since the plan in the video is based on having an automatic wiring harness, you won't be able to just follow the video directions since some of the wires used won't exist in the manual harness.you out to be able to just re-pin some of the T10 connectors in the plenum chamber to match the wiring you need.

well sort of. Yes but you still probably want to do the procedure for the starter relay so that you have easy access to the wiring for the clutch switch. The cruise control is pretty much its own procedure

question: If i am installing solar into an Rv with existing electrical. It has Generator and Shore already. I should assume it has a transfer switch to manage this. Now If I want to add an inverter ran off batteries... is the solution to add ANOTHER transfer switch? therefore the shore/gen gets sorted first and then feeds the subsequent transfer switch. I want to default with solar inverter but have the option of shore/gen. thanks in advance if you can respond.
@hesty325 ай бұрын
Pretty sure you want your solar to go straight to batteries (well with a solar controller/converter) when you run off solar you are actually running off batteries to protect the panels from overdraw. Not super knowledgable on the actual workings there though
@hesty325 ай бұрын
Just reread your question and yes I believe you can either swap to a 3 way transfer switch or add another 2 way up stream to in effect get a 3 power option
