 I would really like the opportunity to talk to people in Adelaide who know about VW's, mine needs some serious loving but I really don't know where
to start. All I've managed so far is to change the fan belt and fix some of the wiring. I also like drinking beer!!:beer:beer:beer

 ... well, hey, count me in too.
 
 For another week or so I still have a conventional car, a Subaru, about to be sold before we commit headlong to our '67 beetle and '79 kombi. So if
anyone needs a lift anywhere after their VW breaks down then look me up!

 Count me in. The old man has lotsa tools and a huge garage, so I'll tell him to move his stuff out :P I'm free every second weekend when I don't

 Hi All,
 
 Is anyone out there clued up on T3 Caravelles?
 
 I have an 86 Caravelle which has a buzzer that goes off when I am slowing down (eg when I'm in 4th gear and slow down to about 50km/hr a buzzer in
the dash goes off).
 
 If anyone can help that would be great.
 
 Cheers
