Far as I know VWoA has an engine remanufacturing facility somewhere in
Canada...I believe Ontario.  I picked up a flyer at my dealer's parts
counter one day advertising VW's engine rebuilding service.  I looks like it
is their own facility and they advertise that only VW original parts are
used in the rebuilds.
