Welcome abord.. I think that the Bently is a good manual, with good explanation and pictures.. You can find it on Ebay or at your VW stealer near you..  :wink:

What a warm welcome thanx! There is something else that has been on my mind, I'm finding oil in the breather tube off of the valve cover. I know it relieves crankcase pressure and there would be oil vapour, but it really seems to be accumulating. The reason I'm so concerned is because I seem to have oil consumption ( about a litre ever two - three weeks ) and I wonder if that is it. The breather cap doesn't have any felt or screen is that normal? Thanks in advance!
