golf Newb

Hey, I just bought my first car a 95 golf III with 95,xxx miles, etc. I dont know much about the car, but im learning. Is there any advice any one can give me on where to start changing/tuning things ? Im located in the sacramento area and if any one knows of any shops. it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

welcome alone Smile

what engine is in your car??

Whenever I get a new car (as in new to me), I always do a basic service. Obviously change the oil, but I also do plugs, wires, cap and rotor, fuel filter, air filter and be sure to check the car over extremely good. Service the transmission when you get a chance too. Another thing I like to do is add fuel system cleaner. Now you obviously don't need to change something if it looks like new, but I like to know when everything was done last.

Its a 4 cylinder 2.0 liter engine. its the celebration edition.

Yeah im only about halfway done checking all the stuff in my car.

The list of things to do/fix just keeps on getting longer.
it kinda depressing.

but thanks alot.

Do you know an estimate on how much it would cost to get my tranny checked?
