Kriss,

Here's a listing of VW Repair shops for all of North America.

http://www.roadhaus.com/shops.html

I'll be in phoenix till Friday morning.

If I can help in any way .... Feel free to call me at 480 620 8966

The oil leak problem may be the Distributor O-Ring. Make sure the shop checks this out.

The Phoenix area shops I'd recommend are:

We've been on the road a lot and she's been doing well, but right before we hit Phoenix tonight I looked in my rearview window and thot, gee that's weird to have condensation on the back window and not the front. Well, when we stopped at my spouses parent's house (only 15 miles or so later) and got out I went around back to look at the condensation thing. It is oil. There is oil leaking from the box near the back axel (square box that has 'fins'...drips coming from 4-5 points). (sorry, I'm not super well trained on the engine stuff...I don't know if this is oil, transmission fluid or what)...thoughts on what it is, and suggestions on where to bring it appreciated. We're supposed to be heading back to Oakland on the 3rd of January. The only thing I knew to check is fluid levels. Everything is at fine levels... Thanks, Kriss
