Funny, the part number came right out of the EPC for my VIN and matched the part number on the part I removed. Oh well. Personally, I think I have Teutonic Paranoia. Of course, that doesn't mean they're not out to get me!

Had a long test drive today under various loads and absolutely (knock, knock) no leaks. Now I think I shall sashay down to the Redneck Riviera for a little day trip. "An' dat's what I likes about d' south..."

And speaking of VINs. Why do people say "VIN number" or "PIN number?" The "N" stands for "number". And if you own an "occasional table", what is it the rest of the time? When you step on the brakes, is your life in foot's hand? If you can "slow up" can you "speed down?" Too many questions, not enough beer.....
