 What can I say about a car that was built during the Octoberfest? This car is a MONEYPIT. I researched many hours to endup with something that I have rebuilt. It has a new water pump, three new sensors, new ball joints, and a new radiator.  We also have replaced three oil pan covers due to their cheap plastic.  It aloways needs new tires and alignment.  Now it has a short in the ABS sensor that will cost $1,300 to replace and the clutch is slipping.  Oops one of the electric mirror knobs broke off.  How can you drive without adjusting the mirrors? What else can I say? It's time for another Japanese car. My patience is lost and no one gives a DARN.  The dealers just take my money. I have had it!  I am afraid of VWs.  Does anyone have similar feelings?
