I'm telling you guys - it's the beer! How much foresight would you have in
your work if you downed a gallon of beer with your buddies at lunch?

I would agree, i am sure that after the car has been desined someone else
then has to write the manual on how to fix it.

Anyone recall the 100 (1st generation)? All it was, was a Dasher (Passat)
with slightly more bling. That vehicle was so easy to work on, because
essentially it was a Rabbit (Golf) with a longitudinally mounted engine.
As for the thermostat, why would it be placed there? I was always under the
impression that the Germans as a whole are frugal, efficient, and
conservative folk. Isn't it true that their trains run early as opposed to
being on time? Where is the logic behind putting a thermostat behind the
waterpump pulley? Also, why in God's name does the front end have to be
removed in order to change a timing belt? Of course, it has to be a belt,
as opposed to a chain, so then we have to fork out either time or money so
it can be replaced every 70K. Hell, my Eagle Talon Tsi, even with its
myriad of vacuum lines, which is so typical of Asian products, was easier to
work on than

think you might see more rational designs.
