None but there are a couple I would like to have back.

I will post details on the Superbeetle struts when I get around to that part, but there is a couple threads with some info on them here somewhere, I ran across one inadvertently just a few days ago, but cannot remember where or how I came to find it...

Probably one of Brian's.

Thanks! I did load up the acutal sensor-to-harness connectors with dielectric grease, and they were in clean condition besides. I'll chase down the other connectors and maybe the ground points for it.

OK... I replaced the drain valve and the fuel tank pressure control solenoid (both used parts from a non-coding car) and it fixed these codes....
but now they're back!
This car lives at my dad's place and spends most of its time sitting, if that's at all relevant. Has half a tank of gas.
I'm hoping that there's something ELSE in common concurrence with these two codes that doesn't involve changing all of the rubber lines under the car... anyone know?
thanks,
Andy

Hi, welcome to USMB!
The power steering swap has been done many times and is simple.
Let me show you a couple of things about the board - first, at the bottom of any topic's page, you can see related posts - they may be for-sale posts but check them out in case they have a list or a link to one.
Second, give our search a try. It doesn't like words of 3 characters or less so try "power steering swap EA81" but not "add power steering to EA81."
Good luck!

There's an outside chance I might ride over there.

Hope you have a fire extinguisher.

Take the dead clutch disk to the parts store with you.

You bought a car sight unseen and didn't have an impartial third party check it out.
You also posted:
I dont think YellowSub was being dishonest in this saleIf he can't or won't chip in for the repairs then it's probably best to consider your lesson learned and quit tarnishing his name here. How do we know your mechanic knows what he's talking about, for instance?
Don't get me wrong, I'm sorry the car isn't running and I hope you can get it back together soon, but you supposedly don't think you got ripped off, according to your post I quoted, so unless you have cause to drag someone's name through the mud, you probably shouldn't.

EA81Ts can be problematic when you're trying to find parts. I love the way they run smooth, though
-
Only front wheel drive models...
A lot of us prefer the EA81. But I don't think it came paired with a 5 speed from the factory. -
Good call passing on that POS. Post in Wanted and consider coming up to the PNW to buy something.

hahahahaha

That's because WCSS12 stuff hasn't happened yet to post on the website.

Whoa. Hurry up with those pics, Rob!
my brat is a custom convertible with a soft top -
If this is the Griz, check it all over for leaks, and look for anything fresh on the exhaust. Definitely check the brakes too.. you've done a lot of work to it in a short amount of time; this means you have more to double-check.
Oh, and make sure the tires aren't rubbing anywhere such as the undersides of the spring perches.
-
Importing those would probably cost more than machine work to drill rims or hubs, and the safety issue IS a bit of a wild card. China does make their own cars and such though. I'd try to get them spec'd out if you get some, to make sure they're safe... it's your money
-
Nice find! Funny that those sedan spoilers are harder to find than LSDs
-
Most here will probably tell you it's not a big deal. If there aren't any factory markings on the flywheel and pressure plate that correspond to each other, then try to match up the patterns of dirt, surface rust, etc. that may be present.
Also, download a copy of How To Keep Your Subaru Alive here:
http://www.worldwidecm.com/HTKYSA.pdf and peruse the clutch section. Good luck!
-
haha. Quit selling the Griz! It was meant to be yours
-
I'm suspicious of the quality based on the lack of a brand name and how cheap that gasket set is.

Depending on how picky you are, there should be lots of options for gray headliners. They will come in either vinyl or cloth, and in a few different shades. If you hit a big enough junkyard, you should be able to find a good one in some shade of gray... removing it from the wagon will teach you how to remove yours; re-installation should be obvious after that... good luck!
digital dash conversion loyale

The digital dashes look cool...
But they're hard to read in the sun, their gauges are less accurate, the digital elements in them can burn out so part of the gauge doesn't work, and it's really complicated to swap dashes.. you have to change the sensors that feed the gauges, and the wiring is sort of complicated to work out.
Some people have swapped their digital dashes out for analog dashes but nobody swaps analog for digital.
If you want to get a feel for what you're looking into, run a search for DASH SWAP in Older Generation and Retrofitting.
