Sorry for the repost but I seem to remember someone on the list posting step
by step directions (or close to it) on replacing the heater core in their
A2. I saved the post on my computer thinking I would need it some day but
my computer crashed and that section wasn't backed up so no longer have it.
Well, the heater core is gone and needs to be replaced so any help would be
appreciated. If you have done it before, is the Bentley straight forward or
are there any tricks to watch out for?
Yes I know this item was a recall but since it lasted for 184K miles, I
don't think I could go to them and ask them to replace it.
Way back, someone sent me this PDF file containing VW's official
instructions:

It's surprisingly easy if you follow the instructions, with one notable
exception: you have to be a fully-trained gynecologist to successfully
replace those damn securing clips on the back. I just skipped them and
it holds together fine.
Cheers,
