Now that I'm a born again VW owner (nothing religious, mind you), I have a few questions:
1) The most annoying thing is a slight whistling noise from the sunroof. I've visually inspected the gaskets and mating surfaces, and all seem to be in order, and I'll be damned if I'm getting on the roof at 60MPH to figure it out, anybody have any pointers?2) Any suggestions on snow tires? (The GTI looks like it might need some help in this department.) I was thinking on getting a set of 16" steel wheels (aka cheap) and mounting a set of Blizzaks on them. One of the things I want to do is upgrade the brakes, so pointers in this regard would be useful.
3) Boost Gauge (just for something to watch instead of the road.) I've seen A-pillar and steering column mounts as well as some hokey ashtray setup. Anyone have it mounted on the dash, anywhere else?4) Wing recomendations? That antenna might prove to be troublesome.
5) Lastly, do chipped cars lose the alarm/immobilizer functions?-Don '74 Bug (Died due to rust complications) '73 Super (MOre rust) '72 Bug (Guess.... it has to do with a natural chemical reaction involving FeO2) '83 GTI (More fun than a barrel full of monkeys. Top speed in the 90s.) (Died.) '87 Jetta (A whole lot of not fun. Survived long enough for my sister to kill it.) '04 GTI (Everything in a luxury sport car for less.)
