the light adjustment dial on the left side of the steering wheel can be removed without tools, just push the button in and rotate and then pull.

I think less people know about the motion sensor disable button, and that you are supposed to clean the sunroof drains out, they live in the front door pillars, also the mirrors are heated, there is also a lot more stuff that you missed lol 😆

Cutting the end of the grommets in the doors and in boot (VWs official million euro fix lol) for the sunroof should stop any future blockages from the drains…I’ve purchased 2 mk4s and both cars sunroof drains wasn’t even connected to the grommets so also worth checking , easy fix with a steel core washing line run through and out the door 👌🏻

Nice vid 👍 just traded in my 2001 GT Tdi 130 silver 4 door this morning.... had it 10 years, amazing car, only one breakdown when the 1st & 2nd gear selector snapped 👍 still have my 1.8t though, love mk4s 🙂

@Mikel Gates rust is a big factor these days, sills and rear arches, front wings are easily changed. Check interior carpets and boot are dry as there are a lot of leak prone areas, mainly window regulator to door seals. I'd recommend a 1.8t or gt tdi 130/150. Lots of Service history for both the petrol & diesel turbo engine is essential in my opinion. Walkaway from any smoke out the back of a petrol, especially when hot. Diesel shouldn't smoke like an old train.... look at a few cars, the level of trim and maintenance will vary greatly. £2500 should see a good one. Good luck 🍀😁

The moment I heard your accent I was ripped plus the ND registration. So many memories. Only after buying an NZ version of the Mk4 did I realise the difference between immob 2 & 3. South Africa actually specc'd them well. Only schlep is ZA did not get the mk4 VR6 24V nor the R32 only the VR5 on the Jetta. Greetings from Auckland & you have a sweet ride btw.

The best car ever, it is still modern and strong car..

For the auto windows part, if you close the windows with your key and stay in that position for couple more seconds it will close your sunroof. I have the same car (US version) but no power mirrors.

Thanks for the tips. I had 2 MK4s but never noticed the sun cover .The last tip works on MK3s too.

I didnt knew mirrors trick. Thanks. Chasi decorative trimmer door side falls down I use two side sticker but didn't glue up. Any solution?

Nice tips.

Your accent kept me going. I love Vw's btw

Haha, i thought my car had electrical issues when all the windows opened. Never heard of such unique a feature on a car.

Hi my windows came down automatically when my mum was beside it yesterday afternoon and early this morning and hasnt done it since. What could it of been?

Folding mirrors?! I need to upgrade mine to this.

I have the mk4 with the same car key. Just curious, if you put it into the door lock and hold on to the "unlock" position, will it also open the sun/moon roof as well?

No, that button is a small light bulb to help you unlock your car in the dark... look right next to the key blade...

Most cars have the bit on the end of the sun visor so when it's folded down there is a bit the covers the bit of window above the rear view mirror but the mk4 doesn't have on so they had to fit a separate sunvisor for above the rear view mirror 😉

The Button on the inside has to show the folding mirror icon or it would not work

MK4’s should be 2 door, 6 speed, LHD, have a switchblade key fob and sound like Chewbacca.

I have a mk4 jetta and now I think I need to buy a mk4 golf

The only thing that I didn't know until then, was that not all of the golf 4s got the same key, mine has a switchblade style key integrated into the body with a remote unlock/lock buttons. I really tought that all golf 4s came with this key because its really easy to get replacement parts for it. Maybe because I have a Golf 4 Varinat.

I have a 3-door '98 golf mk4 that has central locking but no remote lock/unlock. That being said, since I do have central locking, I just bought a chinese remote unlock/lock receiver kit and have soldered it to the micro switches (well, the cables that go to the switches) of the lock, which are being pressed when you turn the key in the lock and give the signal to unlock/lock all doors. So I have the same key as you because of that 15$ upgrade😁
