Thanks for the replies guys, it looks like none of the left over bits from my rocco will fit the Jetta; ah well I’ll keep my eyes open for a cheap PB cam then.

If thats what standard shocks do then I would assume thats what the previous owner fitted …
Do you reckon it’ll be ok if I put + 40mm springs on the front with the back as it is then?

And it was the state of the rear end that got me thinking about going country stylee []

I have a dream for the car. I don’t know if/when it’ll happen but I’d love a G60 Jetta countryish []

Cheers for the info guys, I guess I’ll forget that idea then and save my pennies for a G60 conversion

My syncro started to blow cold air as the engine warmed up. Was the same as my old Gti. The heater matrix bypass valve in the engine bay was old and faulty. Replaced it and hot air again. £25 for the kit from VW.

The bypass valve was what a mate of mine said as well … Thx for the tip, I think I’ll give that a shot.

As for the radiator fan coming on late I had a look at that earlier it looks like the rad+fan have been replaced and one wire is not connected, 2 speed fan working only on 1 speed?

I wish it was that simple …. the water level is at max. It is filthy though, so that’ll be getting a flush through it @ the weekend which I’m sure will help

Hi,
Chris from Lincs (UK) here. I have just aquired a Jetta syncro, red and grey two tone one off ebay.
Its not a common car or colour scheme so does anyone know any history of it?

Thx
Chris
