Hi Guys Just got the MK8 out of winter storage and the power seats are not working. The drivers side is completely non-functional. the passenger side will move forward and back, but nothing else works. Both fuses in the dash panel check OK. Any ideas ? Bill

Hi Guys I recently went thought a trying ordeal with an ABS warning light scenario. While peacefully driving at 40 mph, out of the blue comes a check ABS warning light. I borrow an Actron Brake Scan tester from a friend's shop and it reveals both input signals from the rear ABS sensors...

Does anyone know of any supplier that still offers wheel speed sensors for the 1998 Mark ? Someone had mentioned that they thought Delphi still made front sensors, but I have not been able to find a supplier who carries them. Does anyone have a web address or phone number where I can a contact...

Hi Guys It's been awhile since my last post (or login for that matter), but I've still got the 98 MK8. Pulled it out of the garage after sitting for 2 years and took it for a drive. Ran fine for 20 miles then the ABS warning light came on and the brakes started to pulse. Shows brake codes...

I'm looking to replace all the Coil-on-Plug units on my Gen2. From a price perspective the Granatelli units are at the top of the range with MSD in the middle and Accel at the low point. (interesting to note that the Granatelli units are cheaper than OEM) Has anyone tried the Accel units ?

Hey Guys .... My Gen2 has developed an irritating engine stumble at 1200 rpm. The idle is perfectly smooth, but as you increse the rpm it first becomes noticable around 1100 rpm. It is worst at 1200 and completely smoothes out 1350. Throttle response is fine and the engine pulls as strong as...

How can I tell if the carrier side bearings are bad ? I have a vibration that gives a wavering wow-wow-wow noise. Similar to the noise of an out of round tire.(the wheels and tires are fine and balanced to within 0.1 oz) It is most prominent between 45 and 65 mph, but you can feel it right...

Hi Guys I'm wondering how long these 4.6 DOHC motors typically last without major mechanical problems ? Have any of you guys experienced these engines going 150,000 miles or more ? Bill

Hey guys .... I know this is the wrong forum, but I thought I might catch more eyeballs here. Not much traffic in the Navigator forum ! My 98 Navigator will not switch into 4 Hign or Low Range. The 2 High and A4WD work fine. When I switch to 4H I can hear the relay inside the dash click...

Finally got the 275/40-17 Kumho's mounted on the 17X9 cobra style rims. (Kumho ECSTA SPT) WOW .... what a tire ! A little noisy on the highway, but the handling is fantastic. I suppose the wider tread and stiffer sidewall just picks up more road noise ???? Quiet as kitten on side roads...

I understand a few members are running 275/40-17 tires on MK8's (front and rear). Did you have to make any modifications to make them fit ? I'm thinking of going with the Kumho ECSTA SPT Ultra High Performance Summer Radial.

What's the deal ???? Is it going to happen or not ????

Hey Guys ... from time to time members have asked me for a step by step procedure to R&R the pumpkin. I've done this half a dozen or more time times, swapping my 3.73 and 4.10 pumpkins in and out. Finally sat down under the lift tonight with a couple beers and wrote up the procedure. Enjoy...

Hey ... any of you guys running 17 inch rims, what size tire seems to fit the best in the wheel wells ? The OEM 225/60/16 inch tires had a diameter of about 26.5 inches and a tread width of almost 9 inches. It would appear that a 265/45/17 would come pretty close to the diameter, but would...
