I have/Hate VW's!
I have a 94 teg and a 96 vw golf as my dailys, my crx is for fun/breaking
The head gasket has been leaking oil out the back of the block on the VW for almost a year(since I got it). The struts have gone completely from hauling around Honda engines and other stuff, two of the springs have busted, and the clucth has gone so bad you cant drive the car in any gear but 1 or 2 at very light throtle. I always said if the head gasket went I would just sell the car. Two days ago I said its time, I replaced the struts, springs and clutch. Yesterday the girlfrined took the car to her moms house 40min away, didnt think anything of the red coolant light that came on because last time it came on I told her not to worry about it because I would top it up the next day. I got in the car this morning and the light was flashing, poped the cap and watched the compression fly. The ------- gasket let go and the ------- rad poped because of it aswell! Two days after I did all this work the ------- gasket let go. Hears the kicker head gasket set at cost = 430.99 new rad at cost =169.99 thats $600.98 just to do the ------- head gasket and rad thats bull ----, if I didnt just do all the other work I would of scraped the peace of ----! |

Me and kamil have put together a turbo kit for the teg but cant install it till the VW is in good shap, plus I just didnt budget for this. I made a budget for the ---- I just did, now this was out of the blue and will make me a broke ass for a bit.

volkswagens suck unless you know alot of vokswagen people, mkIII's shouldnt be that exspensive to fix though, if you cant find anything for cheaper i can probly get you the whole head set for alot cheaper then that and then greyhound it to you
