No problems here. I'm not worked up, I just didn't get what you were saying. One of those difficulties of conveying a message on the internet without being able to express tone.

Well guys I think the only options we have are to COMPLETELY seal our engines, trans, diffs anything with a plug that can be messed with and replace them at 3000 and 15000 miles.

I replace everything with VW fittings—that way nobody will have the friggin' tools to do anything to it except set it on fire (which VW's sometimes do on their own as a no-cost option).
