@uniquelyrose4476 Thank You for taking time out to view and also comment.

Did you change your compressor? My compressor still works fine, but I'm looking to upgrade it with one that has variable valves or whatever they're called. (Modern compressors mk5 or above have it) - When idling or driving regularly the AC barely keeps up, it's blowing cold, but not freezing cold. - When I'm driving at high RPM or on the highway at high speed it freezes my ass off.

@@Buciasda33 I swapped in a new compressor, it was frozen up at first but it finally broke free and it works perfect

That would be Super Cool. You would have to be careful it would probably feel like you were in the freezer 😆.

@@curbsidemechanic3229 :) on my Golf MK IV 1.6 16v when the AC compressor is engaged I suffer a drastic power loss that perhaps could be mitigate using a more efficient compressor

Peace, I think I know exactly what you are talking about. I don't know the size of the 3 bolts off hand, but you have to use a wrench. You can remove the first 2 bolts with a socket. To reach the 3rd bolt you will have to use a wrench. The head does interfere with getting the socket seated properly on the head of the bolt. I hope this helps you out.

As long as they are able to be replaced, it's OK with me.

It's not a difficult task to accomplish. Make sure you have the proper tools to complete the job and be safe.

Yup, I'm still Alive and Kicking mf.....

@@curbsidemechanic3229 gonna follow your guide then 😂😂

@@lipovpetr Sounds good to me my brother.

I use an OBD Eleven Pro scan tool. It works on VW, Audis, Skoda Seat, Bentley Lamborghini and now BMWs as well.

There are a few small differences but this video should walk you through that process ruclips.net/video/wTYuGG4ijgw/видео.htmlsi=WyNH7bLl5omaw9X9 Thanks for watching.

Yeah, It was something the previous owner may have done. It's good if you are able to drain your coolant system, flush it, and then refill it with the proper G-12 coolant.

Sorry so slow. My check engine light came on, I ran a diagnostic check with my OBD11 scan tool, and it told me I had a vacuum leak. From there, I started listening under the hood. It was easy to pinpoint where the leak was coming from. I pulled out my flash light and started looking between the inlets for the intake manifold. It wasn't hard to find

LOL, Thank you for taking time out to watch this video and commenting on it as well.

That's Awesome Vawesome, I look forward to hearing about your future VW adventures. I have had so much fun in the many VW platforms that I have had a chance to drive. Keep me posted.

Hello, I'm not sure exactly what part you're speaking of. Is it something that I may have changed in the video? Or is this something that you have on your vehicle that needs to be changed?

Peace @wordplay1127 I have not had the pleasure of completing a manual swap yet but definitely more power to you. Let me know how it works out for you. What size engine is in your mk4? What's the name you call it?

The first time around I used some no name kit from ebay . The second time around I used a spec stage 2 kit. Go with something name brand...

You are welcome.

I have yet to work on a TDI but I would imagine the process would be similar IJS

@Curbside Mechanic it most definitely is I followed this video step by step and was able to remove the transmission. I didn't notice if you completely removed your transmission mount or not but I left mine on and I'm sure it would of been easier if I removed it. As well as the pasaanger side axle cup I left mine on.

Thank You Sir

This particular vehicle was a manual. There are a few small differences between the two. I know the shift towers are different on removal and you have to align the torque converter on the installation for the automatic transmission.

Project in Progress. It's not complete. More to come soon.

Sounds good! From your videos I took off my head to get some goodies in there please telling me you are showing how to do the timing

@@adrianosegreto2229 I am working on getting the block machined. Amongst the many parts I have accumulated for this vehicle, a clutch is in fact in the mix.

@@curbsidemechanic3229 that’s sweet me too I’m getting some parts ordered what cams are you putting in and are you doing pistons ? I’m doing a clutch too and trying to do a turbo while I’m down there

@@adrianosegreto2229 I have new pistons, rods, valves, springs, clutch, oversized brakes and more....

@randombanana Glad I could be of assistance.

@UltimateClappage I had purchased my parts for the Exhaust and I had someone at a local shop install everything for me. I'm not sure about the upper intake bolts and it is possible the SAI was connected to the manifold. I removed the SAI pump after the installation of the exhaust because it was not connected to anything.

Hello McFrank. To be honest with you, I just raised and lowered the actual engine block until the transmission came out.

Yep, that was a massive struggle for me as well

@Michael O'Connell What are you looking for? I have the old parts still. Cams, valves, springs etc...

@@curbsidemechanic3229still have valves ?

Yes, I still have them.@@angelortiz9808

@Z M 😆 Yes you can disconnect the axels without removing the center bolt from the wheel side. You are actually supposed to replace the bolt on the wheel side if you remove it. Just remove the 6 bolts from the transmission side and tie the axels up with some bungee straps or rope.

@Skull island101 I'm not sure how they were listed when I purchased them. It did fit on my car but it did vibrate on the subframe slightly. I see now that they say they are for a 93 to 99 Jetta. Smokey, my black mk4 was actually a 99 model. I hope you find something for your car. The car sounded great with that header and the exhaust from 42 Draft Designs 🔥

@@curbsidemechanic3229 99 was a split year, so you are running a MK3 header, good to know

Thank You. The removal is the same.

how's the replacement going? any improvements or comments? looking to fix my auto trans too.

Hey @Crystal colon I hope you were able to reinstall your transmission. If you were able to view the entire video you'll notice I had difficulty with mine as well. The manual transmission seems to go back into place with less difficulty.

I put it in but I have a 2-inch gap how can I adjust on the top around the rim so two of my boats are not going in I have an automatic transmission how can I adjust the top should I take out the motor amount that is on top holding the transmission

@@crystalcolon3039 Yup, I know exactly what your talking about. Once I got the Transmission down for a second time. I realized there were prongs on the transmission that align with slots on the Torque Converter. That eliminated the gap and allowed me to get the bolts back in. I hope this helps.
