Here's a good heads up, (if you haven't heard.) If that Coolant
Junction behind the firewall has failed, you don't have to replace it
with the genuine, in-kind, POS VW part, which costs, I believe around
80.00. Rocky Mountain Westy rmwesty.com manufactures a Stainless Steel
replacement that you will never have to replace. They make these for
Syncros and 2wds and it only costs a little more than the VW one. If
you see these for sale at GoWesty, they are the same ones. They get
them from RMWesty. I just purchased one for my Syncro and it was a
perfect fit. It feels sooooo good to have the weak spot resolved!!
Thanks,
Miguel
