craigowl 0 Posted November 26, 2005 Cold conditions followed by snow/slush/salt and milder humid air often cause this. Seen in my street this morning. PS Doesnt quite fit in with that advert that shows a VW pulling away into the road from a line of parked snow covered cars on a wintry morning. "If only everything in life were as reliable as a Volkswagen". Still, we love 'em! (Best put that in lest any local dealers be watching.) :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 26, 2005 You'll notice it's two modern VWs being towed away.... what would have been nice if the shot included a MK2 and a Corrado driving past oblivious to the weather :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted November 26, 2005 No, old VWs spend the summer blowing decrepit hoses due to pressure build-up instead of letting you down in the winter..! ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 26, 2005 LOL, the only part of my coolant system that's blown is the water pump and matrix... interestingly my hoses are all fine.....touch wood! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
