No need to be redundant.

Jetta: waiting on a flange puller tool so I can take off the flange, remove broken bolts, reattach, attach new axle, hopefully have a runner
Golf: I think the clutch cable auto adjust mechanism is fucked. When I couldn't get in gear, that's what it felt like (has happened before), but the normal fix of taking the cable off and resetting the mechanism by hand did not work. Manual adjust cable has already been ordered.

Don’t feel bad. No one could have seen this coming.

Okay, for the record, I'm 90% sure this will actually be an easy fix. Maybe one of those rare "it fixes itself" issues. The mechanism that failed (look at my other replies on this post) works poorly when it's humid, and this happened about 30 minutes before a downpour. So, I guess I'll look at it more tomorrow.

So let me get this straight. Your supposedly modern automobile doesn’t like ... Humidity?
Ooooookkkkkkkk!!!!!
Remind me to pat my GMC on the dashboard tomorrow, and tell him he’s a good boy.

L ater cars 99.5 and up like my Golf have coils that are susceptible to moisture issues when they get old and develop fine cracks. Too many cheap coils out there. Get a decent aftermarket or VW OEM.

I don’t think they put the 2ZZ in the Echo, but I’m sure swapping one in would still be easier than even “basic” shit on a VW :p
And yeah, I’m still pissed Toyota didn’
t sell the
Echo hatch in the
US (cut they did sell it in Canada)

Nah, not coil pack. Auto adjust clutch cable.
I should get a better coil though...

An unreliable Volkswagen?
Never in my 22 years of life have I heard such a ridiculous idea.
1000 eternities in gulag for you.
