Scirocco Fuel Tank Recall information there was a recall made on some roccos due to them rusting out along a seam. if it hasnt been done yet, then Presto, you get a free, dealer installed gas tank, along with all of the extra stuff needed to complete the operation.
I've already got the Neuspeed Upper Tie Bar, Neuspeed Rear Three Pt Tie Bar, Rear Sway Bar, Polyurethane engine mounts, Techtonics Heads and full exhaust, Bilstein struts
I just put a red top in my Scirocco, and it starts so much better now... I have seen lots of batteries fail, and nine times out of ten it's a cheap piece of crap like the duralast... The only batteries I have seen hold up in the long run have been Interstate batteries, and Optima's.
My 1989 Scirocco GT had exactly the same problem. It's the Pierburg carb that is giving you grief. In fact my Mk2 Jetta did the same. Get a replacement Weber fitted and the fault will be cured. I did this to my GT and the performance was amazing. As a bonus the fuel economy was noticably improved.
I have been running 195-50-15 P700Z's on my 81 MKI Scirocco. They ride pretty well on the freeway for low profile tires. Tire noise is not bad. Cornering power is good in the dry. I wore out the fronts first and bought two more. The tire is a bargain and good all around performance for the price.
New muffler (Walker)
New tires (Sumitomo HTR-4, 195/50/15) All parts replaced have been done in the last 10 miles.
