• looks like Jack (http://www.vwdieselparts.com/forum/) has shut down the vw diesel forum from Ohio so be prepared for an onslaught of questions. I have much of the pages posted by Hagar, up to page 35 I think) if any one should care to reference them. Sad day.

• He let the web domain "vwdieselparts" expire...  So the whole site is down, not just the forum.  DOH!

  and a fyi, using adobe acrobat (even the trial version) you can save this or any other thread as a .pdf file. very useful for archiving information or if your internet or the board goes down or something.

• The VWDieselParts.com forum is not shutting down. There was a minor problem with the DNS (name servers) assigned to the domain. It isn't set to expire until 2007 anyways. For some reason, the NS listings were deleted so the registrar defaulted the name servers to a default web site.
  
  The forum isn't shutting down though. That is out of the question.
