So, my MKIV Golf TDI decided to blow up on Friday and I need it fixed. As I was on my way to school, the oil light came on. I pulled over, checked the dipstick, there was no oil on it, although I had checked it a few days prior and it was normal. I added two quarts, started to drive again, and the oil light came back on, clouds of white smoke started shooting out, revs started jumping from 1-2 and the car would not go past 2k. Made it to school and left the car there since. I’ve read through a bunch of threads and I’m thinking it is possibly the turbo? I’ve been trying to contact Swiderski to get it fixed but have yet to receive a response. If you guys would see it on here faster, PM me so that I can bring it in if you have availability. Otherwise, if anyone else would be able to check it out/ fix it for a reasonable rate, please respond or PM me, I’d like to get this into a shop ASAP. ---

Update: Dropped it off for these guys last night. They’re very knowledgeable, and Mike probably knows everything there is to know about VWs. Definitely a couple of stand-up guys. ---

Cars all done waiting on its owner. the old turbo was the best ive seen so far. Ill post pics if its ok. PS. you need a timing belt bad. But you should trade me for a fuel effeciant, honda convertable 🙂 less boost more reliable. 115k new Timing belt, clutch, distributer, radiator, thermostate ect ^^Posted By Mike^^
