Everyone was talking of starters being a no start problem after driving in
heat.

I've had that problem but it's really an issue with a weak battery being
unable to turn the starter when warm. New battery = no more problem.

Thanks for the replies. New battery, new starter, good grounds, I;m
positive
it's a bad switch. As long as it's cheap to replace I;m going to do it. My
fear with these VW's is that I will get to the dealer for the part and end
up spending $200 on a switch.
Have no fear! I put one on my 96 passat tdi at 90k miles. Got it at a local

import car parts place. Around $16. The dealer may be highten (will be?). I
also took the old one ppart to see what was in there, almost like a watch!!
