That FUCKING volkswagen has lost all of it's coolant and it smells like antifreeze in the cab. The warranty has expired it's 2 years old and has 16, 500+- miles on it. All I can think of is the heater core has gone bad. We have had nothing but problems with that thing. The Power of German Engineering, My Ass.

It is heater core... VW has never been able to manage that technology... I had one go in 1989.

1986 Jetta did the same thing.

And they charge an arm and a leg for parts, even if you do it yourself.

That's why I loved my Hyundai warranty. 10 years, 100,000 miles, powertrain; 7 years, unlimited miles perforation; 5 years, 60,000 miles bumper to bumper. I had only a few minor warranty claims for the life of that car, stuff like the antenna not fully retracting or chrome coming off one of the interior door handles.
A solid and reliable car. Fuck deer.

It is Sunday again! I thought this was Saturday when I woke up. I was texting with LJ and thinking about cooking chili when my neighbors went to church. They are not Jehovah's witnesses so it must be Sunday. Retirement is not all that easy. Every day I have to get up. Sunday should come once a month then it wouldn't be so bothersome.

My parents had coolant problems with their vanagon too. That and the CV joints are the Achilles heels of that vehicle.

Heater cores are a major PITA to replace.
Sorry about ur VW(s).

I took my wife's Beetle (2014 convertible) up to the VW shop the other day...apparently, they had not reset the inspection warning when they did service a few weeks ago. I tried to do it myself, but based on what I saw on YouTube, it looked complicated as hell. As soon as I told the service tech this, he was like, "Oh yeah...good ol' German engineering...you'd think they'd make stuff like that easy." It wasn't super-complicated, but enough of a PITA.
Come to think it...I don't know ANY VW owner (UT, Dave Ham, friends from work, us) that haven't had some weird ass issue with their VW. |

We finally got the paperwork finished for the buy back program. We should have an appointment with the the dealer to finalize the deal and pick up the check, in 3-5 days. We opted for the paper check. Because we don't want to give Citi Bank our banking information. Fuck Them.
VW Sux!!!
