With the war in Ukraine going full force our first thoughts go to the human disaster.
What makes this war different than any war before is social media for sure.

An overload of movies shows us the situation people trying to fight.
Impossible to imagine what those people go through.

Leave everything behind, you ever worked for, try to picture for yourself!
After all the stories we ever heard about WWII we experience now firsthand how cruel human kind can be…

We can only hope human intelligence will be smart enough to stop this fast.
Because we all know a war has no winners!

Meanwhile we keep on getting news parts in, parts to make your Volkswagen life an easier one….

The vacuum unit on your distributor makes your timing adjusting when you drive up hill or other moments your engine has a high workload.
Under heavy torque the engine creates higher vacuum as the demand for gas becomes higher.

This vacuum is used by the distributor vacuum unit to give little more advance to your ignition what’s resulting in a higher performance.
Besides our small model vacuum unit you can find HERE we also have the larger model available.

The model your distributor needs is easy recognizable from our pictures.

The accelerator pedal on later model Volkswagens “rolls” over a plastic roll for smooth operation of your accelerator cable.
Needless to say that plastic doesn’t have an eternal life, for sure needs replacement at a certain moment.

We’re happy to announce we now supply the little plastic roller separately.

0635-200 Battery mat (30cm x 20cm)

For whatever car, whatever brand or model, we always have a better feeling your battery sits on a small rubber mat.
It is so much better to absorb vibrations first.

But also keeps that acid little longer away from your body and paint work.
