There seem to be some subtle causes which I have not been able to pin down, or perhaps they just never did fit quite right. I HAVE seen a car where the brackets which are welded to the body to support the rear engine mounts have torn loose and started shifting downward. That was an extreme case, but you should probably check to make sure that this part of your car's body is okay. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
