Just as  coworker and I noticed a stalled Passat TDI on the side of the
road, a  nice, a late model white Vanagon GL drove by. Temp was about -15f. As

was -5 F here in southeast PA at 7am this  morn.     didn't start any
vanagons today but i always had a  lot of complaining from the wbx lifters
starting in cold  temps..    alittle Lucas oil stabilizer helps..just dont
overfill..
