  • nice car doude, just got mine two weeks ago, but crashed. I should fix it in the foloving month, I have 1 questioin, do you have awd when you go reverse, I've heard that they dont have, that rear wheels turn of

  • Nice dude. Fix that ish up man. This is actually my buddys car. The syncro definatley works in revers. this car has made it thru almost 3 feet of snow.!

  • @mtbpsycho @mtbpsycho syncros has freewheel segment installed inside the rear differential and it lets rear wheels rotate faster than front wheels without locking the viscous coupling but it has throttle control element and it locks the freewheel mechanism when in reverse gear

  • I have same golf,year of made 1990 72kw, with ABS and Air conditioning,made for Switcherland. With 4 new winter tyres you can go when ever you want. Old car but more then useful. SYNCRO forever in <3 ...

  • @MrMOTO349

    Are you dumb? vw only syncro syncro means awd :D same as quattro

  • thats sick!

    i love old vws i have an 88 GTI but its fwd not syncro

  • nice car, but the camera man sux :D

  • @mtbpsycho if anyone has any disagreements please reply, as I cant see how the diff will force the car around, yet watching this video there's evidence of it helping over steer and understeer such as 2:45

  • @mtbpsycho if you think about it, it doesnt help with oversteering either, as when you turn a corner and the front wheels lose grip, the rear wheels begin to push you forwards without the diff turning one wheel faster than the other due to the slide going almost directly forwards.

    this will feel as if the rear wheels are helping your front wheels avoid regaining grip and help push you forwards rather then the tyres gaining grip on the front wheels and turning the car.
