Even as a Honda guy and having not owned a VW in over 20 years, I must say I enjoy the time and dedication you and other VW enthusiast put into the brand. Car guys respect clean cars regardless of logo.
The main thing that I love about vw is the community and the creativity. It doesn’t matter if it’s an original bug or a brand new electric van the passion is the same and tahr people are some of the nicest you’ve ever met.
Ah the joy of working on a VR6 in a golf, reminds of the good old days...back then I thought it was tight and difficult to work on. But compared to modern cars it's actually not that bad.
This channel always tempts me to get another Audi or VW but then I get in my Japanese car and think of all the usual VAG issues that I’ll never have to deal with on my car. Then I think, “you know what, watching VW videos rather than owning one is good enough to scratch that itch!”
@@blueridge8992 trust me. I’ve always wanted a big bumper cabriolet. Hell any a2 really. But with 2 civics and a Lexus RC, I don’t really have the space
The audio quality of the videos must be praised. It struck me at the most random time and it blew my mind how the audio from the recorded video and the audio of the voice-over is almost identical and the transitions are so smooth, that you can rarely tell the difference. Top stuff.
Fun fact about Alberta and snow...I lived there for 5 years in the '90s...they don't use much if at all any salt, they lay down aggregate on the road for traction over salt...it works better however it can be a bear with glass some times.
Charles, you are the first YT mechanic/car guy that I have seen remove the stickers from the tires. Thanks you! 😂 I’m glad I’m not alone when the sticker tires drive me crazy
It's always satisfying to see an R taken care of properly, especially when I keep tabs on dismantlers (for parts, just in case) who seem to be parting/junking them on a weekly basis (exaggeration but it's frequent)
The O-rings for the bevel box are standard metric sized o-rings. (13.5X3.5), (20X3.15) and (68X2.5). Next time ya'll are in Knoxville area, let me know. I've got beer, pinball, choco lab and if needed 2 guest bedrooms.
When you were going through the oh and while we're here. It reminded me of when I had my mk3 Vr6 GTI redone last year.... Feels like everything got touched.
I'm from Alberta, I was surprise to see someone down there from here. Not much rust here, we use sand and small rocks on the road for traction in the winter.
@@StevelsCamping Then you might be lucky but look around yourself, most vehicles are rotting away and more than anything, the parts with the most rust are the ones you can't see
Hi, I am glad to still see mk4 golf on your channel, even tho I don't have R32, it is a plesure watching it. For people that lower mk4's to ground, try engine mount spacers, i had problems with inner cv joint breaking and engine mount spacers helped a ton. Keep up the good work :D
Great video man, and awesome to see it at WITW. It was definitely nice to see and the owner (McKay) is super cool too! A lot of work done, but those new engine mounts at 36:30 .. whoa ... engine hardly moved when you rev'ed it.
34:46 Haven't been a part of the VW community since my MKII Jetta back in teh early 2000's but wow, people are still doing the chopped-car-trailer thing? I love it!
Funny thing about that chopped car trailer guy that you catch a glimpse of in this video. He’s another UA-camr. I just saw a couple videos of him fixing and building it before WITW about 2 weeks ago. Pure coincidence that probably the first shot of actual WITW Charles captures him on video. Great job and good luck on all the work you’ve done and will do. You really are like a living vw service manual. Having worked at a vw dealer as a tech for just over a year, I know they have the wackiest procedures sometimes.(I’m sure he doesn’t necessarily know it all of the top, and just looks up certain things between shots or whatever, but still extremely knowledgeable and experienced.)
Mr Charles, I couldn’t make Wookies this year, but it’s my goal to go and shake your hand. Your videos taught me everything I know today and I want to say thank you. Rebuilt so much watching your videos (and Pauly of course) Have fun hopefully I see you next year!
Men you really are humble because this man is a living repair manual I am not a mechanic but would be scared of doing VW stuff, happy to see the videos and make me a bit more confident in case I need to do something
The amount of detail, time, and effort you put into the work, let alone the video to capture it for us, is unreal. Thank you so much. And yes, @Volkswagen, sponsor WITW!!
It is an absolute dream of mine to have an R32 to begin with, but if the money was no object, I would send it straight to you and pay more to be part of the process. I feel like you would be so much fun to work with. And it would just be a really good time.
Awesome video once again, any R32 content, especially something as extensive as this one we cannot get enough of. What should R32 owner's with low mileage cars buy now that will be needed later? Since you said things are harder and harder to find, I'd like to buy now before parts are all gone. It would be great if you could make a short list of essentials that are still in stock today but you know will be gone.
I'm from smalltown Alberta! love watching your videos @humblemechanic! I am wanting to get into mechanics and have been consuming as much automotive content that I can and your videos have been SO helpful! I am thinking about going the apprenticeship route and then maybe going to college but want to get my foot in the door ASAP and see that as the only route being that I am still in high school. Keep on making awesome content!
Wookies was sick!! It was 1st time down. After driving the dragon and the surrounding roads.. my local roads don't scratch my itch anymore. I'll have to drive recklessly fast to get even close to the same kind of excitement. Hopefully next year I'll be able to stay the whole weekend.🤙
Thank you so much! Getting ready to overhaul my girlfriends 24v GLI with 315k km from Alberta. So this video gives me more confidence about the chains which were my biggest worry. Yourself and Paul are legends to the VW community! Long live MKIV
Will be at the Dragon in October with GTR enthusiasts from the Chicago area where my son lives. He's bringing his '17 GTR with 600+HP and I'm bringing my stock '23 GTR (warranty!). I know you and the VW crowd had fun, hope we have the same. Great video, you spoil us you know, it brings a smile to see when one goes up for viewing, thank you.
Hey Charles. Great video as always. Really like the honeycomb mat you used for placing removed bolts in recognised order. Very useful. Regards from the UK.
Also regarding the coolant pipe. URO parts sells a cast aluminum piece that’s under $30. It made it through wookies when I made the trip from Texas is 2023.
I would say all of the things you addressed is just regular maintenance that could have been done over the years, overall great job, the car should have no issues in the future, so good to see that people take good care of them!
Killer refresh and tasty new mods. R32s are probably the best vw ever made. I liked corrados and the w8 passat manual as well but these are the pinnacle. Back when VWs had timeless looks and a unique feel. Takes some serious skill and cash to do these cars right. I'd be losing it waiting to pick this up and drive to an event like that.
Nice work! Like that you gave kudos to the shop that repaired the O.E. bumper cover. Too many body shops want to replace everything because it's more profitable (takes less time). Often lesser quality parts are installed in doing so.
Wow EIP parts, that really takes a guy back. I still wonder what happened to Russ from Dubcorp/Raderwerks Tan EIP Stg 1 Bora R conversion car that started life a TR cloth car and was torn apart with like 600 miles.
Ooooh, I like that rear seat delete. Need rear door panel deletes too. That was a lot of stuff, but as I've found over the years, its pretty much standard service on an old VW/Audi... doing a whole bunch on my daughters project 2000 TT right now.
WOW, Charles, I LOVE this video. It makes me want to get an R32! I'd love to see you do the same type of "let's rebuild it" type of work with a Corrado VR6.
Good job as always. For the seal that you can not get try Grizzley seals in Langley BC. You do need the measurements and they probably have them. Very friendly folks
I have the 1.8turbo engine ,and 4door car ,now cant find spare parts oem the factory stop making parts i mean interior parts in the internet some find from china and the mechanical parts all from factories from east europe and turkey ,cause i live Greece .This is difficult to fix one car 20 almost years without genuine parts at least here in europe ,i dont know in Usa what happen!Always like this golfmk4 R32 ,is my dream car!But ....!!!I love ur work on vw golf mk4 if i was in usa and had mk4 i came to u to fix it!Love from Greece!
Wow, That's an insane amount of work in a short period of time. My task list for my R32 is similar and I'm looking at like maybe 3 years to complete. Lol. Maybe I need to give you a call and set up a Charles revamp if that's an option. As always, great VW content!
That seal on the transfer case looks the same as the one you get on the Opel 8Valve water pump. If you can give me the measurements, i have a brand new pump. You should be able to get them from Autodoc in Germany or VWSA in south Africa. Also speak to Masterparts and GoldWagen spares in Cape Town they usually have hard to find stuff
Just measure the o ring and you will propably find enough replacements. That's what we do at our company and unless it's a really high temp o ring like for a watercooled exhaust we always find them.
Have the same headlights with angel eyes on my mk4. Im always thinking if it was a stupid idea or not get a mk4 R32 back in 2014 wen i got the driving icence when only cost 7,5K €... Nowadays are worth the double with double kms in Spain...
Regarding the bevel box/ transfer box o rings, when I replaced my timing chains I got the sizes off of etka then went on eBay and found the closest size generic o rings for sale and used them. 3 years/ 13,000 miles later and no leaks yet.
Oh man, I miss my old MKIV. I picked up a 2.0L when they first cam out. It was my first new car. It was slow, but I did a bunch of work to it and took it autoXing and to track events.
Reach out to a hydro shop they will likely have the seals, I asked for a catalog once and that thing was super thick. ended up using them a few times to make custom oil and brake lines
A bloody marvellous video Charles, you always make it look soooooo easy 👍 My dream is to own a R32 one day just purely for the sound. Until then I'll just have to make do with my red mk7 GTI.
For some of those hard to find gaskets, you might be able to 3D print in a flexible material. The engine bay fuel clips could be printed as well. Didn't see anything on Printables or Thingiverse, but I'm sure someone could model them up pretty easily.
Hey Charles you are my fave rite UA-camr you really inspire me and I watch all of your videos I know and can tell how much work goes into all of your videos anyways keep up the good work!❤️❤️❤️
I'm sure the previous owner changed the oil pan because they kept shattering the cast oil pan. I may have done that a couple times on my old mk4 gti.... Lowered and big speed bumps were hell until I engine mount spacers on (not to mention the axles....)
Love your videos. Been a VW tech for 20+ years but love watching other people work on them HAHA. Just curious what special tool you use to fill the haldex or any oils for that matter? Be

Never understood the VW vs Honda 'conflict'. Both brands are cool and have their unique models. I'm a german guy but love Hondas too.
The amount of work that goes into these videos is insane. Enjoy and respect it alot!
Thank you!
Aluminum pan cracks when lowered cars hit things, steel bends before it cracks.
mk3 steel pan best thing i did to my mk4 12v VR6
yup
Had a b5s4 I hit a bump that came out of nowhere. Cracked lower and upper pan. Def wish I had a steel pan.
Never fun.
Different brand and engine, but I swapped an aluminum pan for a steel pan on my engine swap for the same exact reason
JET FUEL CANT MELT STEEL BEAMS
The audio quality of the videos must be praised. It struck me at the most random time and it blew my mind how the audio from the recorded video and the audio of the voice-over is almost identical and the transitions are so smooth, that you can rarely tell the difference. Top stuff.
Fun fact about Alberta and snow...I lived there for 5 years in the '90s...they don't use much if at all any salt, they lay down aggregate on the road for traction over salt...it works better however it can be a bear with glass some times.
This is because it is often cold enough for long enough that salt will no longer melt ice on the road and be ineffective.
Any Albertan knows, a cracked & chipped windshield, is a new windshield...
@dumbestoyster hail yeah brother
In recent years they've started using salt brine on the highways. I'd really like them to reverse that decision....
Charles, you are the first YT mechanic/car guy that I have seen remove the stickers from the tires. Thanks you! 😂
I’m glad I’m not alone when the sticker tires drive me crazy
Hahaha sticker tires drive me nuts!
Incredible how it seem you like those R32 and know everything on them. Cool to see people with the same passion.
It's always satisfying to see an R taken care of properly, especially when I keep tabs on dismantlers (for parts, just in case) who seem to be parting/junking them on a weekly basis (exaggeration but it's frequent)
Even thought I’m terrified to open the bonnet on my MK5, I love your videos, they are the best.
Thank you!!!
Man. How cool would it be to be the owner of this car watching this video? Y'all have fun at Wookies!
Charles has best videos because he knows how to pace things!
The O-rings for the bevel box are standard metric sized o-rings. (13.5X3.5), (20X3.15) and (68X2.5). Next time ya'll are in Knoxville area, let me know. I've got beer, pinball, choco lab and if needed 2 guest bedrooms.
Thank you for this!! Installing my bevel box this weekend and was thinking of ordering a viton rubber. Rubber type matter much?
We absolutely love rosstech
When you were going through the oh and while we're here. It reminded me of when I had my mk3 Vr6 GTI redone last year.... Feels like everything got touched.
Me, doing a timing belt on my Honda V6, being grateful I'm not working on a VW VR6 anymore, but watching this while I work just for the nostalgia.
I'm from Alberta, I was surprise to see someone down there from here. Not much rust here, we use sand and small rocks on the road for traction in the winter.
Not much rust here is a blatant lie. Yes we don’t use salt for the most part, but rust is still a huge problem on a lot of cars.
So much rust in Alberta lmao 🤡
@@nicolamontori Your funny, I've got a few old vehicles with no rust.

Fantastic video detailed, informative and will help us keep these soon to be classics on the road!
I love the sound of R32 engine, just can't explain the feeling.
32:57 I can't believe how good Liqui Moly MOS2 improves manual transmission feel. It's like butter.
Oil additive doing good job 👌
These are my favourite videos on yt maintenance and mods Ty HM
You guy's really know your stuff,i love watching your videos.keep up the good work guy's 😊
Just measure the o ring and you will propably find enough replacements. That's what we do at our company and unless it's a really high temp o ring like for a watercooled exhaust we always find them.
Just posted to measure and check McMaster, so seconding your comment. Hopefully to move it higher in the views.
Thanks for this informative video, great workmanship and I love the glorious sound of the r32
Charles, o-rings are easy. You can get a make-your-own kit. Cut to length and glue the ends together.
Wait really? That’s cool as hell
Should have ordered your flywheel from Paul so he would have come and installed it.
But then it would have gotten installed upside down 🤣
🤣
Have the same headlights with angel eyes on my mk4.
Im always thinking if it was a stupid idea or not get a mk4 R32 back in 2014 wen i got the driving icence when only cost 7,5K €... Nowadays are worth the double with double kms in Spain...
Regarding the bevel box/ transfer box o rings, when I replaced my timing chains I got the sizes off of etka then went on eBay and found the closest size generic o rings for sale and used them. 3 years/ 13,000 miles later and no leaks yet.
Man that EIP Short shifter is a throw back!
Great video, great in-depth and not boring at all. Keep up the good work!
Once again, great content. ❤
With the bevel box you can leave it attached to engine if you take the inner axle out of the bevel box then take the transmission off afterwards.
25:22 measure and purchase replacement o-rings from McMaster-Carr
Wow this R32 was soooo pretty. Incredible job my dude.
Oh man, I miss my old MKIV. I picked up a 2.0L when they first cam out. It was my first new car. It was slow, but I did a bunch of work to it and took it autoXing and to track events.
Where did you get the cool aluminum R branded strut top caps seen at 39:11 ? Looks like they are held on by a set screw.
The client got them used I think.
it is an obsession but you seem to do a good job and the latest products really do look nice

Awesome to see the OCDEURO Body Brace make an appearance! Reach out Charles 😊
Atta boy Charles! Nicely done! Do those mk4 R32 have launch control?
Reach out to a hydro shop they will likely have the seals, I asked for a catalog once and that thing was super thick. ended up using them a few times to make custom oil and brake lines
thanks for all the tips, watched all of it
Not a bad way to spend $10k before a week in the dragon lol great job as always charles
This is one happy engine in a well kept chassis.
Gruven Parts sells machined aluminum fuel line holders. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.
They make great stuff!!!
A bloody marvellous video Charles, you always make it look soooooo easy 👍
My dream is to own a R32 one day just purely for the sound. Until then I'll just have to make do with my red mk7 GTI.
I have the bilsteins and lowering springs on my Saab. It drives like a dream. 👍
OH god. I was eating lunch when you cut open that engine mount.
For some of those hard to find gaskets, you might be able to 3D print in a flexible material. The engine bay fuel clips could be printed as well. Didn't see anything on Printables or Thingiverse, but I'm sure someone could model them up pretty easily.
There was a company that made billet Ali ones but where only made part of a group buy and not really seen for sale new .
Hey Charles you are my fave rite UA-camr you really inspire me and I watch all of your videos I know and can tell how much work goes into all of your videos anyways keep up the good work!❤️❤️❤️
Thank you 🙏 a
Keep posting videos like this really good content watched everything
Fun fact, the clutch and brake system use the same fluid reservoir on most BMW's as well. Works well enough.
I'm sure the previous owner changed the oil pan because they kept shattering the cast oil pan. I may have done that a couple times on my old mk4 gti.... Lowered and big speed bumps were hell until I engine mount spacers on (not to mention the axles....)
@Humblemechanic1149 Sorry, not on it, if that's really you Charles
33:21 looks like there is a missing bolt on the that drive shaft.
Tomas Sport Tuning in Berkeley, CA makes aluminum fuel line brackets to replace those plastic ones.
