140 miles and it's still in one piece.
Shifter is still stiff, I hope it wears in. I lubed the new bushings with sylglide, they
are stiffer than I've ever had new bushings be before. The Scirocco shifter is such a nice
addition.
I wish I'd spent more money on nicer calipers and rotors. They are vented GTI's but
I swear I can feel a little out of true in them. Annoying. Easy to change though.
Think they are PBR's, what do you want for $10 a pop though.
The RF claiper clicks fore/aft, they are remans and had new bushings and the pins look good, bleh.
I wish I'd replaced the axles instead of rebooting them. It was cheap and they were not obviously
worn, but I have a vibe on decel I bet is them. Oh, and a slight bit of torque steer in 2nd.
Never felt that in a VW diesel before. Course, I'd have bought remans because GOOD new
axles with Lobro joints are $$$, then I'd be complaining about them.
I was given a set of 72 BMW 320i(i think) spoked steel wheels with new tires I have
on there. They fit ok, offset a bit more to the outside. It's.. Different.
Jury is out on them. But they were free..
It's good to be in a diesel again.
Harbor Freight has a pretty cheap photo-tach, and I think I can make a nice gauge
out of there oil pressure test kit to check pump pressure. Hoping that
makes things feel better.
