My mechanical skills will be tested probally. But not scared of it at all. I'm not so sure it's not mixed coolants in there. Like I said I'm not driving it. Got it home gonna have to sit for a while. I have another project I have to finish up so it can go to its new owner. Then maybe i will be able to get involved with the rs6.

Good to know about the earlier climate control buttons not having the soft touch mess on there. Mine look like a cat got hold of them.

I have already ordered the aluminum pipe. For when I tackle the timing belt.

I bought this to replace a newer jetta gli but the wife dosent seem to care for it too much. Suits me fine if she had no intention of driving it I'll do a six speed swap while I pull the motor to do the turbos and such.

Yes indeed I feel i got a good deal on it even with.

Out of all the things listed I'm most bummed about the headliner starting to sag.
