Ah, the Stupid Mistakes We Make... by Mister.Lull
Hey All, So apparently I hadn't had enough coffee before I went to the gas station on my way to work this morning. I filled up, bought some juice, cleaned my windshield and back window, put the nozzle back into its holster, and drove away without closing my gas tank. Needless to say, I was a...

Phaeton by dwacon
Any reason why the Phaeton never caught on? Is it that people can't connotate the term "Volkswagen" with luxury vehicles? Also -- the W8 and above engines never caught on... and perhaps in part due to the skyrocketing cost of gasoline. It would be great to see some hybrid powertrains... --...

HI, For over a year, my 2000 VW JETTA TDI has been my weather man. After a rain, when I open my car door the alarm system fails to reset, so that when I start the engine I have to wait 30 seconds listening to the horn. Recently I have discovered that if I go to the trunk and open it with the...

source for "OEM" style VW wipers? by Alan Hoyle
I have a 2005.5 Jetta 2.5L. The windshield wipers have a proprietary connector design and I can't replace them with standard ones. So, I have two questions: 1. Other than my dealer, Can anyone recommend a good source for those non-standard blades? 2. Alternatively, would it be difficult to...

"low class" by CamLowes
Not to pontificate, but in essence that is the problem: "some pretty out of touch decisions." US Automakers, like the US itself, should've taken the hint after something called the "Arab Oil Embargo" and smartened up. They didn't, the goverment didn't and most importantly, "we" didn't....

I've had a couple of radiator hose issues, and now the lower hose has collapsed. A workmate of my has had several lower radiator hoses collapse. The main issue seems to be the more than 90 degree bend, but "inferior manufacture" may be an issue as well (these are NAPA hoses, FWIW). When I use...
