gravity valve



Hello again list,
I took the Scirocco into the shop today to look at the fuel pump problem.
They did say the transfer pump was bad.  They also told me that part of the
reason the pump went bad was because the gravity valve was somehow frozen
shut creating a vacuum in the gas tank and affecting the pump.  There always
has been a significant sucking sound when filling up at the gas station but
it's always done that (almost 6 years now), is this not normal?  Any
comments on this?

thanks

greg
