If you can get this anywhere it should be fine. Many of these are serrated belts now, but I think the straight smooth ones may wear the fan less, so I prefer them. > 2. Same question as above but for windshield wiper fluid. No, use whatever you can buy cheaply at K-Mart. > 3. I guess the main question is whether or not the dealership is helpful > for the older VW's? In general they are not too helpful, and I would never consider them for service, but if you find one with a good parts man who is both interested and friendly they can be very helpful. The parts are expensive though, so I would look elsewhere first.
