In your first paragragh you mention taking you vanagon to a competent technician and not willing to pay the price. I laugh at this as in my experience that is a huge problem in itself. I spent thousands at garages trying to get problems fixed only to receive a vehicle back with many parts replaced and still have the same initial problem I brought the vehicle in for. So when you find this elusive competent technician, please let me know because in my experience they do not exist. Not for real problems anyway. Steven 91 Westy |
