Here we are installing Ford Racing C-Springs on an 04 Mustang GT. I’ll be using a 2-post lift for easy explanations and visual clarity, but the same procedure goes for those using a jack and jack stands. Remember, after installation, it is important to get a front wheel alignment. Camber/Caster plates may not be necessary when installing FRPP C-Springs.

It’s preferable to park on a flat surface, as you may have to engage and disengage the hand brake and shift from gears to neutral. If you can’t do so and are obliged to install the short shifter on a slightly inclined surface, place wooden blocks in front or behind the wheels to prevent the car from moving while you’re working.

This document provides instructions on changing the oil and filter on a VW 1.9 TDI engines. All the pictures here are taken from my 2001 New Beetle with automatic transmission. Golfs and Jettas are slightly different from the images. And manual transmissions have a full cover on the belly pan. Automatics have a cutout on the belly pan. It exposes the transmission. There is a drain plug readily visible that a quick lube place can be confused about. I have heard stories that they remove it and a dark red fluid comes out. You do not want this to happen as you can’t drive it. You will have to have it towed to the dealership. Or you can do it yourself with instructions written by Drivbiwire to deal with it. You can find the ATF change instructions on the TDIClub.
