Peter,

Pick the icon on the top right that is 2 (?) spaces to the right of the
printer icon.  The submenu has a ATP listing.  Click on that and enter
the part number you wish to search for.  Don't forget to enter color
codes, where applicable.  The numbers have to be entered exactly correct
or it will not recognize the number.  ie, 251711263A for a clutch slave
cylinder.

VW has a particular way of handling the color codes and standard (nuts &
bolts) parts.  Standards are entered N  10013401  which is clutch bolts
for a 99 Jetta (oops, wrong list!).  There must be 2 spaces between the
'N' and the number.

The color codes are weird too.  VW uses a 14 digit numbering system.
ie, 251 857 561A 581, is a white sunvisor clip.  The ATP requires you to
enter 251857561A 581 .  If there is a 2 digit modifier, then it would
look like 251857561AB581 .

Good luck with your searches.
