Default Thank you, whoever you are. Thank you for giving me teh caulk.

I don't know who you are, but I hope this message of deep gratitude finds you. You sir (madam?), are a man among men, and you have definitely given me teh caulk.

Thank you for running dino oil in your (now my) 2000 A4 1.8t; everyone knows that synthetic oil is for pussies.
Thank you for running the small filter; it's so much cheaper than the large one.
Thank you for changing your oil at long intervals; save the planet!
Thank you for allowing sludge to build in your engine to the point where the oil light came on; maintenance is overrated.
Thank you for stripping the heads of half the oil pan bolts; screw the next guy.
Thank you for rendering my 5 mm allen tools useless; I really just need a box full of hammers.
Thank you for overtightening every bolt you touched; how strong you are!
Thank you for leaving a few bolts out; less work for me.

But most of all, kind sir, thank you for the caulk.
What made you decide on white? A different color would have at least looked little more subtile. Are you remodeling a bathroom? You certain used a lot of caulk. Clearly you like teh caulk. A lot. And no gasket? Awesome! It's like the oil pan was going commando! Cool!

So thank you. I know you meant well when you slipped me the caulk. But I, unfortunately, do not share your affection for your caulk. Yes, it's true. I don't like teh caulk. In fact, I (dare I say it?) find your caulk to be a tremendous pain in my ***. I hate scraping the gooey white mess that used to be your caulk. So please, think twice before you give me your caulk...or at least please give me a reach-around.

Thanks.

Default Details:

Bought this A4 with a broken timing belt. Fixed belt and valves, discovered that oil light comes on at highway speeds. Removed the pan tonight to clean out the sludge. Discovered that someone had already dropped the pan once before. Someone really hacked the job.

The oil pan sludge clean up sucks enough without have to follow in the footsteps of some bathtub caulk weilding ape. Good times. I wanted to thank him/her/it for such fine workmanship.

Default Painfull!

Some people lack a sense of common respect; such as the jerkoff that owned your car previously.

Sorry to hear it man.

You all never cease to amaze me. I was laughing before "you slipped me the caulk.......scraping off the white gooey mess.....so on and so forth" I hope the person that did this finds this post someday.
