got my first scirocco 2day! need help on a few thing!

[vwscir88@hotmail.com (the hitman)]

sounds like you got a knocker! check your rod bearings. if you're in the 
cleveland ohio area i can donate the side glass and an unchipped rear wing, 
along with a bunch of other parts depending on your need. LMK, free parts 
are a good thing! :)
