Well, I know there are a lot of people on here with knowledge on VW's...I have about none..so where would a good place to replace a motor? I'm looking for a reputable place that's fair in price as well.

The vehicle: 2001 VW Jetta VR6

Any input is appreciated!

TIA,
Ben

 

dont you guys have a vortex to jump into?

 

First of all, sorry to hear you drive a Volkswagen.

But yeah, pretty much any machine shop should be able to rebuild the motor for you.

 

Ugh...what's that supposed to mean? If you're referring to VW owners..this is for someone else...just trying to get input..

 

lol!!!

 

Might want to check here for good local shops

+1 for soggy explaining the vortex joke

 

TST in San Pablo. Best VW shop IMO.

Do you have the 12 valve? I have an engineer buddy at work that just built a new bottom end 3.0 liter!

If you have the 12 valve, I can see what he wants for it. He just sold his for a new car & still has the short block.

All professionally machined. New pistons...the works.

 

034?

 

So many Jetta jokes... so little time.

 

Agreed. 034 Motorsports, near Frys in Fremont. Javad is the man

girl+jetta+big sunglasses=hot...until she gets out and takes the glasses off...then not so much. But one can dream!

 

my friends buddy works for a place ill see if i can be of any help before I offer.

 

i enjoyed the vortex joke, definitely frequented there when i had the VR6. They are great to drive, but a pain to own
