How do you change the timing belt on 2003 golf gti?

how to change timing belt for 2003 1.8 liter turbo volkswagon engine

Mk2 VW Golf 1.8 8v gti makes noise from the dash rev-counter when driving from cold start and increases with speed but fine on idle and is gone when engine has been driven awhile?

Noise from the instruments, especially related to road speed, is usually due to a worn speedo cable. Another indication of speedo cable wear is when the speedo needle/pointer fluctuates while driving at a constant speed.

What type of oil for 1996 Volkswagen GTI?

Oil for 1996 VW GTI: My Haynes says oil meeting VW spec 500 000 (viscoscity between 5W-30 and 10W-40) or 500 001 (viscoscity between 5W-30 and 20W-50).

This is probably a bit out of date now..you can also look in the owners manual in your glove box, if it is still there. Otherwise google vw dealers for your country and call one up and ask the required spec and viscosity range.

I use a 505 000 spec oil for a TDi engine. These are between £20 for 4-5 litres and £45 for 4-5 litres for a big name oil..

If you don't understand what, for example, 5W-30, means, this is the viscosity rating for a multigrade oil. The lower the first number with the W, the cooler the operating conditions that the oil is good for, (W means winter), the higher the second number, the thicker the oil will be at the hotter end of the scale. So 15W-50 would be an oil for a hot country like Spain, while 5W-30 would be suitable for colder countries like Sweeden.

Note Some engines require very specific oils, like the PD diesel engines from VW. Always check with your dealer if you are not sure.

How do you replace the mirror switch-knob on a 2000 VW Jetta?

The easiest way to change the switch is to slide a small screwdriver between the old switch and the trim on the door towards the front of the car. It has to go in a bit more than a centimeter to release the catch on the switch. You can see how far by looking at the new switch. The small screw driver will stay in place by itself since it is squeezed between the switch and the trim.

Place a coin or something hard on the trim close to the switch, and take another screwdriver and slip it under the switch and pry outwards against the coin. The switch should pop out and you can grab it and pull out far enough to disengage the cable.

Then just hook up the new one and pop it back into place.

What causes exhaust pipe metal sounding rattle from right rear of 1981 Corvette automatic at 1300 rpm in any gear but no rattle in neutral?

You need to check all the exhaust pipe hangers, one of them is letting the exhaust rattle against something. Also check muffler heat shield it could also be loose. When transmission in engaged in any gear the engine is torqued to the right, so that is moving the exhaust ( it is attached to the engine so it moves with the engine )into a position to rattle, in neutral the engine is sitting evenly in its mounts so no rattle. May want to check engine and trans mounts too.
