I am looking for the VW equivalent of Yung's Auto in Clinton . Specifically an 80 something yo master mechanic that has specialized in one brand his whole life , has seen Everything , and has it all in his head .
Once upon a time in my Honda Civic era , I had a mystery intermittent electric problem that stumped me , and a half dozen shops , both general and electrical .
Pulled in Yung's , explain to young guy behind counter , he walked into back , translated into Korean for Honorable Grandfather , and without even looking , imeadately diagnosed the particular relay under the dash that after 20 yrs of sunlight heating the dash , the internal insulation became brittle . And that was indeed it .
On Littlefoot44's Diesel Beatle , has under the care of the most recommended general Auto Electric specialist in the region have all new battery , alternator , starter , and ( I think) Starter cable . I'm personally at a loss for anything else the lack of starting ( failure to effectively turn over ) could be . So hence looking for a Brand Specific Master Jedi .
Added - So PG or norther SOMD would be bonus ,but at this point I'd travel farther for a Master Jedi .
And yes , the car is otherwise in good shape with lots of life left , and was a generous gift from her Uncle .
