Hope it's not an automatic. If it is, start saving up now. They constantly crack converters and the pumps go out often. The shitty thing is that the pan is at a weird angle and they don't have a conventional filter, they have this thing that likes to spew flammable fluid all over the engine compartment.

Even the VW transmission fluid is expensive...12 bucks a damn pint IIRC. But don't worry, it only takes 13-14 pints.

Oh well, I hope it treats you right. SUcks I gotta read about it, gimme a call once and again...I just don't wanna read on here some day that my own brother got a sex change or something.
