Mk4 Volkswagen Golf TDI 1.9L diesel engine code ALH is in dire need of a suspension upgrade!
Upon taking apart the aging 300,000 mile suspension, we realized that the Golf is much overdue for an overhaul.

To finish it off it needs an alignment. Will make a big improvement

Nice videos, i checked out your evrymod video before i did it on my car and it really helped me to understand how to do it, got really good results. I have Audi 80 b4 with 1.9tdi 1Z engine and evrymod took the power form 90 to about 130-140. Stock gt15 turbo is a bit more than maxed haha. Running 1.3 bar- 19psi and stock injectors maxed as well. Everything else is stock and can keep up with 180hp car for first two gears so yea this works really well.

Hey there! We haven’t made a video on the evrymod so that was probably someone else. To my knowledge the evrymod has the potential to destroy the injection pump so it is not something we recommend

That may be the worst autocross suspension in the history of history! Incredible job redoing everything. BBS wheels, Bilstein shocks, German sleeper!

i got an alh too and i think my turbo is done at 2000 rpm or lower when the turbo needs to boost it just smokes a lot white kinda blue smoke and no power

@GasHouseGarage 3 месяца назад

I would check to make sure the turbo actuator is moving correctly. Sometimes the turbos get dirty and the actuator can get stuck

regardless of how bad it is, it is all easily replaceable. I did (top) strut bushings twice and a lca w/R32 rear bushings in my garage w/minimal tools (yes, had the special pass-through sockets for the strut nuts). I never did the rear beam in the 15 yrs I had the car, but did rear shocks/brakes and parking brake cables. Parts are a plenty for this car and you can easily upgrade to GTI/R32 bits really easily. I used all Vaico and Meyle stuff, but there are many other brands out there. then there are the shocks and struts - sky's the limit on those from cheap soloworks coilovers to shine strut/spring combos....

@GasHouseGarage 7 месяцев назад

The price of decent coilovers didn’t make sense when you can get struts, springs and all the bushings and hardware for less than a pair of coilovers. It’s crazy how expensive they are!

@K03sport 7 месяцев назад

@@GasHouseGarage ...yes, agreed. B6/B8 and springs puts you at $1k...good (adjustable) coilovers start at $1600-ish, but most are nearer/at $2k. I'm in a WRX now and it's the same story. solid/firmer bushings make all of the difference.

It’s a night and day difference how this thing handles for sure!

Can y'all please make an oil change how-to? Thank u

@K03sport 7 месяцев назад

oil change is easy. get some ramps and a (oil) catch basin. pick your 5w-40 oil of choice. have a drain plug gasket. and choose your brand of filter (I used the largest Mann filter available on my gti for extra oil capacity). drain, fill, done. there are obviously other steps, but it's that easy.
