    WTB: ALH Jetta Wagon GLS w/ leather

    I'll pay well for a copy that's well maintained and in great shape. Tranny negotiable but I'd prefer a 5spd. I'd also prefer leather because of dog. My profile is probably wrong - I'm in NC at the moment but I'd be willing to fly and drive for the right car. Thanks!

    The question is...do injection pumps on TDI's have a "characteristic sound?" You know, much like a fuel pump on a gasser has a whine. Mine (engine, I'm not sure of the culprit-that's why I'm asking) has a once per rev whiring noise that goes away as soon as I come off idle. I thought it might...
