Parts for sale / Bosch W5DP0

Last post by Tiets0n - October 26, 2023, 03:32:10 PM

Hi guys,
Sorry for my english.

I was wondering if there are people searching for the spark plugs W5DP0. For quite some time the spark plugs are completely out of stock here in holland.

No. I think something more extensive is the basis.
My battery drains 25% in 8h at night

nothing on https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.com/ so I suspect non existent unless a new old stock one pops up on ebay.

probably best to get new ones fabricated, not particularly complex parts

I don't think they're available anymore. VW used to sell, have you asked VW? I'm not aware of any pattern ones.

My jacking points are slightly rotten. Anyone got any ideas if I can buy some anywhere?
Thanks

hmm, this plus your lights not working, I think you've got a problem with the wiring to the back of the dash pod. Take it out and have a look at the wiring. Are there any other issues with it? warning lights coming on, rev counter stopping working etc...?
