Now don't blame 'late model' Cadillacs either. Yours was a 99 with how many miles? Pre 2000 known to be susceptible to that problem. Improvements have been made on 2 generations since then.

2005 + is considered late model at this point. 1999 is 11 years old any way you slice it and if you think a VW is going to be more reliable than a Cadillac I can tell you from experience you're dead wrong.
It CERTAINLY won't be more comfortable. I'd rather push a Cadillac than drive a Beetle.

Could have fixed it for half that or less and still had twice the car.
