been saying it for years, German stuff overrated, 5years in German car specialist garage proved this to me. 8 years with fiat, well impressed mostly corrosion issues due to vehicle being jackd up in wrong places. easy to work on, strip down easy rarely brake bolts unheard off on the west coast. maybe not as comfy as the German stuff tho.
Oops....so that'll be a no then..... Oil sight glass foobaared, fuel gauge gone haywire and in for its first recall on 10/12....ah well
