OT: Passat b4 transmissions..

[rocco.crossing at gmail.com (Rhett Farnum)]

If I rememeber right my brothers old Passat was a 96. He had issues with the
neutral/park switch where the car wouldn't start untill you slammed it a
couple of times into park so the switch would ecknowledge that the tranny
was in Park.

VW and their fun electrical shit!
