Stupid move today, before leaving to go to Toronto today,in the Golf 5spd, wnet to put in in reverse without the clutch, embarassed I looked my wife and she says," were not in your car" (mine's an automatic)

Idiot!!:eek:

The car got me back when I got home and decided it didn't want to start and had to replace the fuel lines, karma or bad luck.
Just a funny to share with y'all, laugh away:D

Don't feel so bad, offered to do an oil change for a member broke his dipstick tube(no don't take this the wrong way - I know what you're thinking) trying to get his filter housing cap off... Ended up having to give him mine as a replacement rofl...

Have you ever hit the big brake pedal in an automatic when going for the clutch on an on-ramp to the highway. Now thats a seatbelt check...

No but my size 13 EEE gets caught under the brake pedal quite often, that's a reality check :D

It's usually the opposite for me, if I'm driving the Jetta a lot and jump in the truck, I'll go to put the clutch in at the first stop sign :) Whoops!!! Insta-stop

On the brighter side, I did manage to get my laptop to wake up!

Did a full system dump and a fresh install of original OS.

VCDS is working fine, must be the suuny day!


PS, don't work on cars before you take the wife to Tiffany's ;)
