Mk3 power advice
This is my mk3, 16v gti, nearly 150k miles.
I bought it as a weekend driver nearly 2 years ago and have done less than 3000miles in it (I drive a work van mom-fri).
She drives beautifully, I think my sump gasket needs replacing (bought). Needs a full fluid change (new oil filter, sump plug gasket and oil bought + ramps), slight coolant leak somewhere but nothing I can’t keep an eye on and top up (fingers crossed just a butterfly clip I can tighten).
Previous owner redid the gear linkage himself, now sometimes 1st, 3rd and 5th can be a bit tricky. I’ve learnt the nuances myself but have to explain gear changes to friends, so I would like to have it smoother… so please me give advice on how to rectify that.
Then lastly, interior wise, my head lining is falling away… is it as bad of a job to replace as YouTube makes it out to be? Is it worth trying to do as a novice, or should I just pay someone to replace it?
