[Vwdiesel] oil pan heater

[David Cook]

Oh, I guess that makes sense.  The only issue I can
think of would be would it cook the oil immediately
surrounding the dipstick heater?  I've heard about
that concern with some other heaters.  (mainly
glowplug type heaters in the oil fuel lines)  The
concern is that carbon will break off the heater and
find its way down the fuel system.
