Jesus, I think it's a crime to own a VW in Dubuque, and not know at least one kleiner...

haha.

oops missed that.

passat/audi front ends are great to work on after being in the midwest. just spray it down good get the nut off and most likely you will have to pound it out with hammer/chisel

hopefully you are doing the whole front end kit at the same time.

So, I CAN move back to DBQ and find a VW/Audi mechanic?

I'd assumed they all switched to BMW since it's the only german car I know of being sold locally in DBQ anymore.

As Mr. Burns would say - "excellent!"
