    He comes in on Tuesdays, I'll get a price for a shirt and pants. Maybe a group buy is in order?

      I might even take some real VW tech overalls if they're nice... I keep wrecking clothes.

        I talked to the Cintas guy. He sait it would be about $70 for a two piece pant and shirt combo.

          So how's the car comin' Dave? Just got a call from Blair and he said it also needs a new turbo gasket, but that SCFC might not have one in stock.

            I think you always want new gaskets when changing turbos.

              The ghost has been exorcized. No more whistle, woohoo! The car also feels smoother overall, which is nice.

              Dave, the only bad news is that I'm no longer getting a toot when I arm my alarm. Looks like I'll be seeing you again real soon. I'll call SCFC tomorrow morning and see if I can take it in for a quick Dave check.

                That should be easy to fix? We could probably do it with a VAG-COM for you if Dave is busy.

                    One of the sensors in my doors was replaced for a seperate problem (interior lights not working properly and fuel pump not priming on entry) so it might be related to that.

                      The fuel pump primes on entry?

                        I believe that's what the buzzing sound is when you first get into your car after it's been sitting for a while. I could be off on that.

                          It could be the new door latch I put in. I checked to see if the micro switch worked when you open the door but I didn't lock it cause you were waiting for your car. These latches are notorious for going bad even straight out of the box! Sorry about the no honk. I'm glad Casper has left the building!

                            yea when you open your driver door you'll hear a buzzing guzzling sound from the back and its the fuel pump in the rear priming up

                              True they do go a lot but they are easy to fix, just pull them apart and resolder the broken joints. Now getting the inner skin of the door off is a PITA, don't even try it with the rears LOL I just pull it out and squeeze my fat arms up there with imense pain till I get the little bugger in place.

                                No worries. I'll see if I can get it in for you to look at tomorrow. Cheers.
