Matt, Did you call VW with your VIN first? Vw had a recall of the heater cores on Corrados and Passats. Don't quote me on the year, but there is a recall that is definitely worth the phone call. We do them about once a month and the mechanics love them. Rennie VolksDragon@earthlink.net Peyton Cramer VW Los Angeles

I thought I'd ask before I start ripping out all of the insulation. > > PS If anyone thinks changing a vanagon heater is tough, take a look at thing! > > Thanks in advance. > > Matt |
