I bet you are on VW VortexDer Kommissar wrote:Mr Lex, you said a belt is in it's future. Are you saying they did the w/p and didn't replace the belt, tensioners, and rollers?
The plastic impeller has haunted the VW MK4 for years now. To me it should have been a recall, but I guess they lasted long enough that it just became a technical service bulletin.
I'd put that 1.8T at 200k plus in terms of longevitiy so long as it's had synthetic in it. Of course, I know nothing of the effects of Michigan weather and aluminum engine components.

I resemble that remark. When the VW is running good it is all so good, but when something goes bad, it tends to go really bad.Der Kommissar wrote: Or is that you love to hate them??
