No Worries all~ Justin is simply having major PC troubles. He is hopelessly enamored of Rabbit D's. He is currently in the process of overhauling two 1.6NA engines! I'm sure that he will return to the links once he gets his pooter back!
This noise thing. Yeah, diesels are always louder but not so bad that they make your head ring! The only Rabbit I have had that trouble with had a bad front (rt. side) motor mount. The vibration was awful! It was a gasser. So perhaps there is something more to this noisy string. Those mounts are a serious PITA to replace with the engine in the compartment but could be one source of the racket?
Happpy New Year!
Chuck

Now Now Bennett ---- we know you are Aviation so do not let us down
completely ----We have Loren and Fergus the mechanics ---we have
Electrical engineers and all kinds of other skills here.
But I know that the Hams the Aviators the Inventors and visionaries like me
will make a difference in the world.
I am a tinkerer and Ham and Aviator and Fanatic DIY type and without this place ?
and you and the rest ? ---shit I would be back way back there.
So just lay LOW for a while ---please do not totally go off line. To give you an example ?
if every one in the US started driving like me ? at 78 miles to the gallon ?IMP.
that would cut the fuel consumption in the US by half ?
Shit the Saudies would have to shut down wells. ------but pollution would be less.
But nobody reads your threads ? ---I do for one and there are thousands of LURKERS out there.
OK OK for me is it mileage and so on ? ---- NOT at all. ---It is about having fun----
and I never had more fun than this Rabbit thing. -----Nothing I ever had to do was more
fun than a Rabbit Diesel VW.----and I had a lot of fun in my time.
I drove Bunny Bondo today ---and to explain how SMOOOOOOTH that diesel ran ?
That is the closest I ever drove that compared to the GM V8 5.7L Royale Braugham
And that was one quit and Smoooooth diesel. a delta 88 family. Olds stuff.
Bunny Bundo shure is quiet -----Loren say he has to plug his ears ? -----not in this one.
Well I guess I am hopelessly in love with Rabbits ---so I cant see what is wrong ?
Hagar.
PS : I feel sorry for Bob Dorshimer at GM ---shit he was so close. So close.
Poor man that 5.7 L V8 killed him. Professionally speaking.
He should have hired Hagar as an advisor. Or Loren or Val or the best one
from VW or MB.
That blunder must have cost GM; millions of dollars.? A company with a good
diesel division ? ----that is stupidity ---in my book.
I am not going offline just yet.
