.44 (sorry)
Consider putting on a skid plate to protect the oil sump. A friend was
driving his over a bridge in Portland, Oregon, hit a large piece of ice and
poked a hole in the oil pan. Had to keep going and ...ruined the engine.

Peter,
I'm going to be buying another of your most favorite cars: A VW Passat. I
know the Passats have had some, ahhh....."issues". Due to my doubts about
this so-called economic recovery having the legs to sustain itself, I've
decided not to buy a new one. I'll probably look for an 02 through 06 model
(or wherever the cut-off from 1.8T to 2.0T lies), non-AWD, 1.8T automatic.
I'd really rather get a series 4 Jetta w/2.0, non-turbo, gas engine but my
wife is really upset about the "death" of her beloved '99 Passat, yesterday.
What can I say? I'm putty in her hands ;)
If someone were to hold a gun to your head and tell you that you MUST buy a
Passat or have your brains blown out, which model would you choose (and
you're
not allowed to pick .357 Magnum)?
Thanks, Peter.
Bud Osbourne
