Shawn, my man, the wasps as something else!  Of all the cars I've owned, 
with all the paint schemes, only two, a 1979 Lemon Yellow Rabbit (got
Lemon Yellow for visibility after someone ran a stop sign into my 
Miami Blue Rabbit and totaled it), and my current 91 Tornado Red Jetta,
have the masterful ability of picking up wasps nests while running 
down the road.  It's a constant battle in every door, underneath the
car, and even in the radiator area.  I can't figure it out.  It's like
the cars oooze some kind of pheromone.  The wasps even gather at night.

Anyone else find this problem with VW?  Diesels?
