What an amazing trip! For follow up, I shipped the R32 back home from Chicago. We are now kind of at the point of being done modifying the R32. She is just about perfect as it sits from a performance standpoint. Now we can work on getting things perfect like paint, rehabbing wire shielding under the hood, and some subtle freshness all around. 😎
I am a single 53 year old woman. I have a 2002 Cadillac Deville in mint condition. I am getting ready to go on a 850 mile trip. What would you suggest that I have checked first to last?
Totally, my dad let my aunt borrow his Toyota for a 4hr road trip and she took it to a mechanic to pre check. On her way out of town she called my dad that the car was blowing smoke. My dad got to where she pulled off the highway and turns out they forgot to put the radiator cap back on and the engine was toast. That was long ago before I was born. For Toyotas like you said, grab the keys and go.
I thaught i was over doing it by bringing my jack and stands in the tiny golf but it really came in handy when i changed my brakes in an autozone parking lot 1600 miles from home.
ZIPPP TIESSSSS. So many times undertrims been flapping around which a zip tie woulda fixed, try finding someone to sell you zip ties on a sunday in rural northern california XD. Now i always got a pack of them in my glove box.
@@oilyragsgarage7200 Try some heat resistant tape, just in case a random coolant hose decides to start acting up and leak. Read a bunch of guys stuck during the Budapest Rally used that to get home after the rally. (Like a tour rally, not racing).
Thanks mate! This was relevant to my interests. I’ve done a couple of spontaneous 6000 mile road trips in my good ol Mk3 golf in the past, luckily with no issues. Now that I’m a wee bit older I should plan and go more prepared if I take my newest car on this mad road trip.
Leaving for beautiful Michigan in the morning from Grovetown, GA in my 2015 VW Passat TDI with the wife and kids. Last time, I made it 795 miles on one tank averaging over 70 mph. Cheers!
When I was in my early 20’s (about 10 years ago) I made a cross county trip in my ‘88 325is. No problems on the trip, even hit 200,000 miles on the way home. A week later my water pump died. Really dodged a bullet there and thankful I was close to home.
This video is exactly why my wife's car is always a lease. I don't roll like this lol. Love this video. Very informative. Also, the enthusiasm in your voice at 3:30am is legendary!
Great subject, great editing, great channels and great guys to hang out with. The point on bringing extra tools to help others is a great point. I've used my mobile tools more for other people than my own car.
good vids humble. thank for the "love". I also always carry extra oil on long trips. You know vw needs the good stuff for the turbo. The new ea888 1.8L don't seem to burn much oil like the first gen's did.
despite the ad, this is good timing as i'm doing a 1400 mile road trip in a week, and changing fluids, in the morning, and already filled the boot with tools.
Another two year old video that RUclips just recommended for me. I bought my 2nd Mk4 R32 from Maine and I live near Seattle. I just flew out, picked it up, and drove it home over three days. The last day was over 1100 miles (one can drive quickly and cover lots of miles in WY and MT). A set of winter wheels came with the car but that was it for spares. I used to do winter driving competitions in the BC back country in it and still carried minimal tools with me. I have found my semi-modern VWs either break big or don't break.
I’m planning on eventually driving my will-be newly rebuilt (engine) 99 Cutlass down to Florida when I move there. It’s definitely gonna be a feat because the motor was overheated badly, I’m in the process of inspecting and rebuilding the engine right now. It is low mileage though so the transmission shouldn’t have any issues. It’ll have brand new front brakes and lines, brand new tires all around, all new fluids. Main thing is hoping the engine won’t break down or nothing will happen to the cooling system or the transmission lines, etc. It might be worthy to get a higher paying job temporarily so I can just do everything right and not cut any corners.
Hey Charles, a tip that we gave for our 2015 VW Golf Sportwagen, we have one of those trunk storage boxes in the back but the big tip is inside, we also keep a box of adequate sized zip lock bags. That way, if we have to open an oil bottle or something similar, we can store the bottle back in one of those zip lock bags. For obvious reasons.
I just got a smoken deal on a full alloy rim and tire that's about half way through it's life. I mention this because, the newer vw's don't use full size spares. Get rid of that donut and get a used full sized spare if you can. The donuts have severe speed and distance limits. If you are towing, it 's a must. Where I come from (north of Toronto) our warranties have a rim replacement policy for the first 36 months regardless of fault. Ya...I know weird. This makes rims easy to get.
I know you said change the oil before the trip if you're close to the service intervals. I just changed my oil 1100+ miles from home during my week at disney in florida. I guess I just like to party
I remember when I took my BMW 335i on a road trip across the US. Didn’t even bother inspecting it but the car easily made it. Drove it on a straight 20 hour stint because of my fuck-upery on booking the hotel a day too early. Only issue I ran into was i was driving thru a thunderstorm in the middle of the night in the New Mexico Arizona border and my wiper blades were actually worn. Did my oil change a week before leaving and did another one in Phoenix Arizona as it’s cheaper in the US. Here in Canada I spend $130 on the oil/filter and that’s me doing the oil change myself. Dealer in AZ charged me $95 all in!
I'm using Shell Premium (using Shell exclusively since new) 93 and was able to get 36mpg hwy in my 17 Passat R line. This is especially impressive because this was spirited driving from Detroit to Dayton Ohio. Still have a run left from Dayton to Atlanta. Shell makes great fuel!
I'm about to do plugs for the first time when I get home. I can't wait to see what the carbon looks like. Hopefully it's not bad. I have no performance issues so far! 48k miles
Did your 2019 Golf R come with a spare tire? Mine did not so I ordered all the euro parts and built the spare tire kit myself. Also, would you recommend an oil catch can for the Mk7.5 Golf R? I've been debating it for a year now and always find conflicting information online.
Hey, totalt unrelated to this video question Should i install a catch can in my fiat punto grande 1.9 Multijet to help alleviate carbon build-up issues? Or arent they as severe on diesels as direct injected pertols?
Went on a road trip in my 1993 Audi 80 2.3E, had the voltage regulator die on me. I had a spare one in the boot as well as a spare starter motor. I swapped it out of back of the alternator in 30mins. Carry a small tool set with you, it wont take up much space. With a car as old as mine you have to prepared.
@No Thanks Eh, you'll be fine. A friend of mine collects old Pugs - last I checked, he had a dozen or so, including a 403 convertible (with a rumpled trenchcoat to drape over the door), 403 saloon, wagon, 404 coupe, sedan (automatique!) and convertible...the list goes on. All pretty simple, reliable, under-stressed mechanicals - which is probably how they managed to win the Safari Rally in '63.

The MIL was me unplugging the throttle body. Lol. I took the insulation off because when I replaced the engine mounts it started rubbing the cover. I’ll be adding something back on there. I have a playlist of all the R32 videos. You can go back and see when I got it and all the things I’ve done

One of the reasons I said don’t wait. It would drive me crazy that people would have their check engine light looked at as they were heading out of town. Then I’d feel bad for them because parts would take 2days or something.
And still running 95 as premium? Wow, imagine if you guys could run 99 ron, you'll be able to get more out of your tunes. Big shame America for being behind the times!
HumbleMechanic +1. My uncle’s 2 year old Honda CRV broke down during a road trip. I work at a Toyota dealer and I’ve seen a few out of out of state cars having problems. I worked a Sienna last week from Indiana, their o2 sensor went but lucky for them warranty paid for it. The worst I’ve seen was a blown engine on a Matrix from Florida. The guy actually got the engine rebuilt and drove it back!

If your heated seat doesn't work should you go?
I thaught i was over doing it by bringing my jack and stands in the tiny golf but it really came in handy when i changed my brakes in an autozone parking lot 1600 miles from home.
So, there's more to prepping for a road trip than packing my back seat with Doritos and Red Bull. I'm so behind.

You forgot to pack a hydraulic car lift 😀.
