I'm about to attempt the daunting task of replacing my heater core in my '98 Jetta. The smell of coolant in the car is just too much to handle.
After reading up in my Bentley manual and watching 2 videos, I can tell this is going to suck.
Any advice or hints or tips to make this easier. Any links to a good TDIforum tutorial or online site that I might have not seen yet?
I noticed in all the videos, the guys removed the steering wheel. Wouldn't it just be easier to remove the whole steering shaft? I did that when I replaced an ignition problem, and it was only a few bolts. The process of removing the steering wheel seemed longer than just removing the shaft+wheel.
Also, I'm looking for who sells that foam that is applied to the blend doors. I can tell my foam must be trashed, because it has been flying out of the vent registers for years now. So does anyone know where to by new blend door seal foam?
