> I can (and do) repair my own car. Out of random interest, what age is your car? Personally back when I had it I felt comfortable doing everything except steering, brakes and structural frame work on my 1994 VW T4, but I wouldn't dare touch a modern car. Too much investment required for special tooling, and diagnosis of problems requires a computer and specialized programs in contrast to a multimeter... |

I'm a bit invested in VW tools... (but no "vagcom" yet). One amazing thing is that the VW service books are cheaper than the GM one for the CTS...
Actually the CTS probably needs a steering rack. It's the only car I've ever owned that has play/backlash in the steering and it doesn't appear to be the linkage. I haven't quite worked up the nerve to do it yet, but I think about it every time I drive the thing. I'm tempted to sell it, but the value is not much, its mileage is low and my kids do need a car..
