Yeah I have been leaning that way, just make a move and buy a car under $30k. The engine is pretty small, but I drove it and I wasn't even that offended by the CVT. Has some nice tech in it (although...

Do you recall how this was resolved. My sunroof has started doing this from time to time, but it always fixes itself after a few minutes.

Part came in seems to be correct including "chrome", cost about $75. Took it over to a bodyshop, they are painting it for me - $35.

My Passat had a near-identical door handle and that cap has no hole in it, designed to hide the lock cylinder. It can be popped off if the keyless entry...
