Zukgod, did you actually get to talk to anyone, or was it all by e-mail?
I talked to him through e mail although he did send me his Phone # in case I want to talk to him.
I recieved my cam plate, reseal kit and timing set Sat.
It does appear to be chinese stuff but looks to be good quality.
I'll be getting it installed soo I hope.

Dan, would you please provide me with his phone number. I bought a plastic window from him for my car ragtop, but the quality was awful and I returned it but he discontinued emails and never refunded me. My email address is: ihub-asus at usa.net.
Thank you-
Victor

Victor I attempted to e mail you this info but it bounced.
Yes I replaced the "at" with a @.
I just resent.
Please let me know the outcome.
I remember he was going overseas for a bit, maybe he is still gone?

The outcome of this is that Pete Rothenbacher did right by me and sent me the full refund. Communication was a bit tough at times, and it took nearly 45 days to get it, but with patience he comes through as a good guy.

Dan or zukgod1, would you order from this place again? I am consider ordering the Complete Injector Pump Timing Tools with Guage and a fuel filter. I have never seen an A2 fuel filter that cheap, almost a third of the price, I just wonder what kind of quality it is? I normally buy WIX filters for the quality and I can get them locally. Everything on that site is about half the price of anywhere else, but how is the quality?

I've ordered from him a few times. Quality is alright. What do you expect for the price? I would definitely order from him again.

Ya know I would.
I have a pending order right now for some replacement injector nozzles and a water-pump s well.
I bought a complete timing set from him with the belt, idler and tools as well not to long ago. Showed up in a timely fashion.
The stuff he has is ok as far as quality goes, it is a bit cheaper but seems to be fine though.
Go for it.

Well, I did, and saw that you had 1 completed purchase and one pending. Someone else had 'a few' and the only other was a unsatisfactory purchase that did result in a refund.
Just going by his website, the CC stays in my pocket as nothing there instills confidence. The 2 successful transactions here give me some hope.
I was wondering if there was anyone else here with something to add, as this looks like it could be a good source of cheap parts for all of us.

I figured ya did I was just being a smarta$$..
Anywho.
What I would recomend is dropping him an e mail or calling to make sure he has what your looking for in stock to prevent delays and go from there.
I dont think his english is extremely good though just for referance.
The e mails i get back are worded a bit strange sometimes.

Welcome Pete. I really like that 1.6 TDI idea. Really nifty.
I can think of one thing that people would like to see, a manual VNT turbo controller. A few have built some successful ones on here, but most involve a complicated system of cables, springs and linkage. A plug & play VNT controller for those using VNT turbos on non-computer controlled engines would sell like wildfire.
Again, welcome and I'll be following that 1.6 TDI experiment.

I would be intersted in finding some guinea pigs for my projects. I can supply the parts, if someone wants to test them. I'll post my ideas when I get the parts.[/quote]
hi Prothe,
I sent you an E-mail through your company e-mail a day or two ago? i did not know you had posted here? i'd be willing to test something for you in my caddy like your 1.6TDI motor or if it's a kit i can put it in one of my engines? however you want to work it let me know? you can give me a call so we can touch base on your projects! in that E-mail i sent to you i was also looking for injector shims so i can do some poptesting of injectors. i'm looking for a small starter set if possible? if you need my # i can PM it to you! I live in milwaukee wisconsin
thanks Duane
