It's not fair that I can't use a cool train to get to another city. Sometimes I don't want to drive, or I want to read on the way, or I want to get hammered on the snack lady's cart full of overpriced novelty alcohol. Or, in most cases, it's that my car simply is unlikely to make it without exploding into some sort of Slinky-like arrangement of twisted metal and flaming fluids.

In this particular case, I wanted to buy another hooptie from the adjacent city. It is almost always the case that the desirable shitboxes crop up in the next town over, possibly because I've factory-farmed to extinction all the ones here. It would be silly to drive a car there, only to leave it behind so I could drive the new car back. And all of my friends are tired of my shit, as "give me a ride" often turns into "slowly pace me on the secondary highway for a couple hours while I stop every fifteen minutes to fix something that fell off."

Self-driving cars can't do that, either, because the United Nations decided that it was tantamount to torture to make them watch me do this to their fellow mechanical citizens. Yeah, tell that shit to my dentist, you Volkswagen-loving apparatchiks. Again, a train would be the perfect option, but it doesn't exist, so I have to use the inter-city bus line. That's great: nice and cheap, and it eventually departs and eventually arrives if you're not too worried about when "eventually" is. There's just one big problem.

You see, a bus uses an internal-combustion engine. Don't worry, I'm not going to get all "spinning magnets are the best" on you, I've blown up enough starters and alternators to make a mechanical engineer shit his pants and emotionally regress to preschool. This means that I feel compelled to operate the vehicle. Bus drivers do not like it when you do their job for them, so I spend the entire time biting my hands, trying not to floor the throttle and steer wildly into the left lane. While this is not atypical for bus passengers, it is considered incredibly rude.

As a result, I pretty much just end up playing car-racing videogames on my phone. This doesn't relax me in the least, mostly because Asphalt: Urban GT 2 for the Nokia N-Gage doesn't let you repair rust. How can you trust a car if you can't try to jack it up through the floorboard?

So, my dad does a bridge school at the university he teaches at (his is held in January and is a 4 day refresher course for professionals) but honestly, any one young who is interested in civil engineering…making popsicle stick bridges is where it starts.

The number one question is always “how much stupidity/natural disaster can you build against with the budget you’ve been given” and then the construction workers get to the design and go “oh fuck this engineer, he’s never spent a single day on the job site”

One, female engineers are always eager and encouraged early on, but then they run into the Good Old Boys Club. My dad is in the Club, kind of, but he literally married a female engineer back in the 80’s and is pretty upset when women drop out of the major or (like my mom) constantly run into issues where misogyny is a major factor (screaming tantrums out of a 50+ man) in upper management.

Two, construction workers who are handed the materials list and the blueprint are 90% of the time complaining about the fact that while they’re given the most “efficient” design for structural integrity and materials, they’re going to be labor intensive to either maintain, install, or repair.

Take the 2002 Volkswagen Beetle. What fucking engineer decided to put the steering fluid pump line OVER the timing belt? It DOES make the engine more compact. It does. It also requires, as part of regular maintenance, that you UNPLUG a line that is an absolute bitch to reconnect, and should only require maintenance or repair once every two years, to be disconnected JUST so that you can replace a belt that needs to be replaced “as needed” which really just means once a year if you buy the cheapest replacement.

And engineers DO THINK ABOUT THESE THINGS. Their job is to weigh costs of maintenance, repair, sustainability.

But the reality is that if they get paid big bucks to come up with “the most efficient design” they’ll also, as part of their licensing, be required to report the drawbacks of said design.

To be fair, some inefficient aspects only pop up after manufacturing the product. But the fact remains that corporations deliberately ignore stated engineering concerns or warnings based on aesthetic, planned obsolescence, etc. That, or manufacturing costs cause corporations to deliberately ignore engineering manufacturing requirements for a design from the very start.

Or! Plus, there really is a more efficient design and the market hasn’t caught on yet! This happens with aftermarket car parts a lot.

I guess long story short, I’m very happy that these girls are getting to test out legit bridge designs and that they have the same experiences my dad gave me and my sisters (every single science experiment issued by a teacher was met with “do you wanna build bridges or test concrete? A shrug is not a choice, here’s a quarter, heads for concrete tails for bridges.”) and while I have absolutely zero interest in building bridges or testing the strength of concrete as a living, I’m really glad that someone is making it an interesting group project for young people. I’m also glad that I was raised by engineers and am capable of thinking logically about structural integrity and cost management.

When to Call a Professional for VW Push Button Start Problems?

Technology has made many things easier :) :) :)

Take push-button start for example... this technology has made cranking a car a whole lot easier. Unlike the traditional engine cranking method, the push-button start mechanism does not require the ignition key to be slid into the keyhole to start the engine. Simply, having the ignition key with you will do the trick. All you have to do is to keep the key in your pocket or laptop bag.

As you read this blog post, you will come to know;

  How does push-button start work?

  What would cause a push button start to malfunction? &

  What can you do to get the issue resolved?

Plus, we'll also discuss some of the early symptoms that could indicate a push-button start problem in a car. So, what are we waiting for… let’s get started.

Brief Discussion on the Working of Push Button Start System

For a push-button start system to work, the following three conditions must be met;

  The vehicle must be in PARK

  The brake pedal must be pressed

  You must have a properly functioning key fob

The key fob essentially sends a unique signal. Upon detection of this signal, your vehicle's onboard computer will allow you to start the engine. This so-called keyless ignition system not only makes it convenient to start the car but also deters theft. But, just like any other system in your Volkswagen, the push button start system can malfunction. Want to know what can cause a vehicle's push button start system to malfunction? Well, read on to find out…

Things That Can Cause the Push Button Start System in Your VW to Malfunction

The push button start system of your Volkswagen can malfunction due to several different reasons. Some of them are listed below…

#1- Key fob battery is dead

If your key fob's battery has reached the end of its usable life, it will no longer be able to transmit the unique signal your vehicle's onboard computer relies on to activate the push-button start system. So, if your VW's keyless ignition is not working like it used to, have its key fob battery checked immediately. If it is dying, get it replaced.

#2- Key fob is damaged

Your VW's push-button start system will not work if the key fob is physically or water damaged. At the most basic a key fob is made of a short-range radio transmitter, a radio frequency identification chip, and an antenna. If any of these components malfunction, the push button start of your vehicle won't work. If the damage is beyond repair, you may need a new key fob.

#3- Fault in the vehicle

If nothing is wrong with the key fob, yet you are still having trouble starting your VW, the problem may be with the push button start system itself. The push-button start system has many different components including a computer. If there is something wrong with any of these parts, you will not be able to start your car.

#4- Electrical issue/ dead car battery

Your VW's push-button start system requires electricity to function. If there is something wrong with the battery or other components of your vehicle's electrical system, the push button start system will stop working. Check the condition of your vehicle's battery periodically and if you suspect a problem, replace it right away.

VW’s Push Button Start Not Working: Things That You Can Do

If you suspect a push button start problem in your VW, don’t take it for granted. Before you visit the nearest car service center to get the problem fixed, do the following checks;

  Test the key fob battery to see if it is in good condition

  Check if there is anything wrong with your vehicle’s battery

  Check for signs of physical damage on the key fob

If the key fob has been damaged by water, you may need to replace it.

In Summary;

The push-button start system was intended to make our daily commute a whole lot easier. But, guess what? It can malfunction just like any other system. Therefore, if you suspect a problem with the push button start of your VW, reach out to a trusted car service center to get the problem resolved as soon as possible.

Kouros & Body Kouros (Yves Saint Laurent)

What I'm about to say might cause a platoon of fragrance chauvinists to swallow their tongues. For them, YSL Kouros is the genius loci of an inviolably male precinct, a sacred scent with whom no mere woman may traffic. The idea of me rocking their filthy-dirty stonking wunderfume would be purest anathema-- and yet I'm doing it as we speak, and the words that come most readily to mind are "big ol' cuddlebear".

Cue the falling-upon of swords!

All right, look. I won't emasculate Kouros entirely. This 1981 monolith deserves all the he-manly epithets with which the decades have graced it. It IS raunchy. It IS racy. It's hung like Liam Neeson and has a half-life that rivals vanadium. But everything about it that could be overwhelming (the brisk face-slap of aromatic wormwood, the whiplash sting of civet-soaked leather) is tempered by something remarkably benign (rosy florals, ozonic amber, the scent of Chinese five-spice). Mad, bad, and dangerous to know? Like fun. This is no angry deity, but a gentle, downy-cheeked, smiling youth of the sort immortalized in a thousand Tom of Finland illustrations. He knows how much further a soft word will get him than a growl; that macho pose is just the icing on some very, very sweet cake.

So here's to the boy who cleans up nice and plays well with girls. He'll never need to twist my arm. (Hear that, Hugo Boss?)

**********

Now let's talk about who such boys grow up to be... and what they wear. As the child is the father to the man, Kouros set the stage for Body Kouros. An improvement? Let's see.

**********

My first car was a 1971 Volkswagen Super Beetle, light blue with one orange door. I named him Henry and loved him like a brother. Who cares if he came without a sun roof? I covered his inside domed ceiling with glow-in-the-dark stars and planets. Forget the sun; I had an entire galaxy overhead.

How on earth, you rightly ask, will this tie in with YSL Body Kouros? Buckle up and sit tight, passenger. We'll get there when we get there.

From learning to drive stickshift to knowing exactly how high to turn up the heat before one's shins begin to roast, the sense of intimacy one develops with a VW Beetle offers a satisfaction unlike any other in the realm of car ownership. Both my father and my grandfather were "Bug" loyalists; when the latter deeded me his frayed copy of John Muir's 1969 classic How to Keep Your Volkswagen Alive: A Manual of Step-by-Step Procedures for the Compleat Idiot, I felt as though I had been handed my birthright. From its stained pages, I culled the rudiments of DIY repair-- no despised task, since the boy in me loved to get engine grease all over his hands. I learned how to check my own oil and fluids, strip and reconnect wires, and reset by hand that tiny timing gear that used to cause me to stall coming out of first.

For engine problems I couldn't solve myself, I took Henry to the local VW garage, a dilapidated old structure on a winding back country road. There, the aging hippie mechanics unfailingly called me ma'am even though I was clearly a 22-year-old punk chick in Docs and ripped cargo shorts. Vintage VW mechanics are a unique lot, because they love their subject just as much as their clients do. Where other mechanics might speak condescendingly to a female car owner or even try to bilk her, VW mechanics recognized the engine grease under my fingernails as a sort of fraternity signal. And when they saw my copy of Muir in the back seat, the floodgates opened. They'd stand with me for an hour, speaking honestly and passionately about that quirky little automobile we all adored.

Something about leaving Henry at the garage amidst a yard of other Beetles (red with one blue door, yellow with one purple door, silver with both doors in apple green) made me happy-- as though I was dropping him off for a playdate with his friends. I think it made him happy too, because when I returned to pick him up, he purred. The mechanics would stand outside and wave goodbye as I puttered down the street. In the rearview mirror of hindsight, I still see them clearly: men like my father, like my grandfather; the salt-of-the-earth kind on whom you can "absotively posilutely" rely.

And today -- a bright, cloudless day blessed with cool weather, perfect for a drive -- I'm wearing Body Kouros in their honor.

If you've ever personally been acquainted with an auto mechanic, you know that even when they're off duty and in civilian wear, the faint, discreet odor of engine grease and motor oil hovers over their skin. If you're like me, you find this aroma extremely pleasant-- evoking, as it does, the satisfaction derived from worthwhile labor. To me, Body Kouros says one thing, simply and cleanly: job well done.

It starts off simultaneously tart and soapy, shimmering with a bright overlay of something close to gasoline fumes. (If this doesn't appeal to you, don't worry-- it evaporates quick enough, though not so quickly that it evades the notice of female gearheads.) The clean soapy quality is soon joined by a pleasantly dirty licorice-cedar accord, as if our dream mechanic came home reeking of an honest day's work and is now towelling off after a quick shower. Hints of Lava Pumice Soap and shaving cream still cling to his skin, mingling with his own natural musk and creating the air of a healthy masculine specimen.

As the drydown approaches, a note of mace finally begins to assert itself. Mace and its sibling spice nutmeg share many olfactory traits, but temperature is not one of them. Where nutmeg lends a certain coolness to a fragrance, mace offers a sense of low, steady heat like a lit charcoal pastille-- at first glimmering like an ember in the background, then catching on and increasing by degrees to a fiery red glow. (Perhaps our mechanic is a little sweaty, even after his shower; he's heading out to the shady backyard to relax in the hammock with an ice-cold bottle of beer.)

This mace note is one that I admire immensely. It's everything I love about nutmeg, only more so-- amped up and ramped up, holding firm with no shimmy at fourth gear. It radiates animal contentment and self-confidence, and at the same time, harmonizes with that motor-oil note to keep it nicely in check.

Body Kouros brings new meaning to the word "serviceable". Free of pretensions and frills, it conceals no secret layers. Yet it projects a dependability and steadiness of character that are far more valuable than so-called elegance. Above all, Body Kouros is classless in the best sense of the word-- egalitarian, unconstrained by matters of status or appearance. Wear it as a second skin to feel supremely at home in your own.

Scent Elements: Aldehydes, artemisia, coriander, clary sage, cinnamon, bergamot, carnation, iris, jasmine, geranium, patchouli, oakmoss, vetiver, honey, leather, tonka, labdanum, ambergris, musk, civet, vanilla (Kouros); incense, eucalyptus, cedarwood, mace, camphorwood, benzoin (Body Kouros)

Reviving the Breeze: Expert Tips and Services for Volkswagen Car AC Repair

With the arrival of the summers, the uses and needs of AC also increases. The AC having issues are taken for service. Ultimately you would find everything done by people to mend their AC or to prepare it for summers. But you would find many of the people who do not give attention to their AC during that time and regret latter. AC are of no more use during cold, but during hotter months, people have to use it. But many people do not know how to maintain the AC and get it serviced. Here you will know about the expert tips on the AC care and AC services in Volkswagen.

Why AC need maintenance and service?

The AC or air conditioner are definitely not the most essential thing in a vehicle but it’s no less than one of the most satisfying things during summers or hot weather. The main work of the AC is to cool the cabin by providing the cool air breeze from its vents. the AC consists of the evaporator, compressor and condenser which work collectively to transfer the heat in order to cool the air.

The whole AC performs the process of heat transfer. In this process they use a fluid called refrigerant for the flow of one component to the other for transfer of heat. The refrigerant in the condenser releases the heat to the outside and flows to the evaporator. In the evaporator, the refrigerant absorbs the heat from the air flowing towards the cabin. Thus, by the loss of heat, the air becomes cool, and then such air enters into the cabin. The flow of the refrigerant occurs due to the compressor. Due to the actions of the compressor, the refrigerant gets compressed and be able to absorb and release heat easily. The compressor is a mechanical component that uses pulleys and piston for the compression and initiates the cooling process once it gets energy. It gets energy from the engine.

Such a system can get wear and tear in many of its parts due to the fluid flow pressure, stress and strain in its compressor and other parts, electrical issues in its switch, etc. Lack of use can also lead to problems. During the winters, there is no use of AC which can make some off its parts faulty. With the end of winters and start of summer, the weather becomes much warmer, but the AC might have become faulty due to no use for long. Hence the testing and servicing of the AC becomes important.

Expert tips on the AC care

It’s very important to take the responsibility of the safety of the AC at your hands. Because it the AC will be safe, then you will not face any problem while driving in summers. Here are some useful tips for you.

Make the use of the AC regularly. Even if there is no need of use, you may not use it frequently, but try using it once in a week. Run it for at least 10 minutes. If the AC is not used in such manner and kept unused for more than a month, many of its parts may develop corrosion and lubrication. It may fail to start.

Defrosting the AC can make it work for long. It also helps to get rid of the musty smells from the cabin which is from the result of the excess of moisture in the AC system. While driving in humid climates, there is high chance that the AC would get excess of moisture and this moisture accumulation can lead to birth of the molds in the system.

Check the quality of the air and how cold it is. if there is very less air or normal or hot air while the AC is on, then you may have to check the refrigerant levels and the air filter.

AC services

Compressor repair

AC blower fan repair

AC recharge

Electrical repairs

Conclusion

Without the servicing of the AC, the survival from the heat becomes too difficult. Driving in such heat can make the driver become disturbed and inconvenient, and this state of mind can affect the driving. The driving becomes no longer safe if you drive in such state. The AC service can only give you relief.

Dangers of delaying the radiator repairs in your Volkswagen

As you know that the engine is the most important part of a motor car, hence its care and maintenance is also very necessary. How the engine would give top performance and how it would run for long without any major repairs is always top priority. We can provide good quality fuel, we can provide good quality oil, but if the engine overheats, then it would be severely damaged from inside. In such cases only a good quality radiator with coolant can prevent your engine from damage. So, you have to fix the radiator if it is faulty as soon as possible. You should also know about the dangers of delaying the radiator repair in VW.

The role of radiator in VW

The radiator is a component of the cooling system which has a very great role in maintaining the temperature of the engine. As the engine performs the combustion in the cylinder and generates heat, it is obvious that the engine would be more likely to get overheated while driving especially in summer. As more and more heat produced in the engine, the engine becomes overheated as such amount of heat would not be able to flow out of the car. The radiator supplies the coolant to the engine so that the coolant fluid would absorb the excess heat from the engine to maintain its temperature. During overheating, the essential parts of the engine would be damaged or worn quickly, so the engine needs a suitable temperature in which it can work properly without getting damaged.

The radiator stores the coolant in the radiator and then makes it flow to the engine by the help of a water pump. The water pump pressurizes the coolant to a certain pressure so that a correct amount of coolant would flow to the engine. After the circulation throughout the engine, the coolant again reaches at the radiator where the radiator fan cools it off. So, in this way the radiator prevents the overheating of engine and keeps it safe.

Bad effects of failing radiator in VW

It is a very bad sign for the VW if the radiator starts to fail.  So generally, when the radiator gets some issues, it leads to the coolant leakage and low pressure. So, it is advised by the car professionals that the bad radiator has to be changed as soon as possible or else the condition would be catastrophic. But the car owners should know in detail about the dangers of bad radiator.

overheating

If the radiator is bad, then the coolant would not reach to the engine in correct amount leading it to overheat. The overheating can cause damage to many essential engine parts and burn off the oil.

Coolant loss

A bad radiator would lead to coolant leakage and hence a lot of coolant would be lost unnecessarily. You have to top up the coolant more frequently which would waste your money as well as time.

White smoke

The internal leakage of coolant can be possible due to a faulty radiator. The coolant would drip on the heated parts of the engine, leading to a white smoke from the hood. A faulty radiator fan cannot cool of the coolant and hence the coolant may turn to vapors and a white smoke would be released from under the hood. This white smoke is the coolant vapors which smells sweet but very harmful if inhaled. You should avoid it.

Frequent coolant changes

 A bad radiator would lead to accumulation of dirt and debris in it which can contaminate the coolant, hence you would have to change the coolant frequently.

Costly repairs

A bad radiator has many faulty, corroded parts, it would also lead to damage in engine. And the repairs for all those parts can cost you high.

Engine dies

Ultimately if the radiator is not repaired, then it would lead the engine to die. Most of its parts would permanently damage and the engine would not work at all.

Conclusion

Get your radiator repaired so that you can save your engine from such damage. The repairs of radiator is to be done at VW service center.

Preserving Performance: Volkswagen Car Clutch Repair and Maintenance Tips

When we find that there is some problem in the operation of the car, then in most of the cases we start to blame the engine and the transmission. But you should know that there is also another important component which has a great role in the car operation and that is the clutch. The clutch helps in the movement and also slowing down the car and it protects the engine from more stress and damage. The vital component like clutch requires regular maintenance.

These symptoms are easily noticeable and make it easy to identify the problem. To fix the clutch failure, knowing the signs would be very much useful for Volkswagen owners.

Bad odor

The bad smells are very unusual for cars now a days. No one would like to have a bad odor in the car they have to travel. So, this uncomfortable odor that the car releases during the clutch problems is a burning smell. The burning smell occurs due to the wearing down and overheating of the clutch plate.

Strange noise

The noises like growling, squealing, squeaking occuring from the clutch when you apply the pedal can make you worried. Such strange noises are result of some wear or lubrication problems.

Difficult to shift

It is common in case of manual transmission problems or clutch problems. You will find it hard to shift to any required gears. The transmission simply refuses to shift to any of the gears. A good clutch would always make the shifting easier.

Slipping of clutch

The slipping of the clutch refers to its unwanted disengaging of the clutch. This slipping causes more resistance during the running of the car and even lead to more losses.

Car not going into reverse

If the car is not going reverse, then you would find it difficult during the parking. The car is shifted from drive to reverse to make the car run reverse, but when the reverse gear is not working, then you would not be able to use it. It is hence a great problem as well as a symptom.

Unusual feel of the clutch pedal

There would be bizarre clutch feel your you are pressing it. You may feel loose or spongy while pressing it or you may feel very stiff.

Repair and maintenance of the VW clutch

After finding those signs, you have to get your clutch repaired. Mostly in VW, the clutch suffers from problems like worn release bearing and worn friction material.

To know about the faults in transmission, a checkup is done there are some checkups to be done.

The car is shifted to neutral and then it is made to idle normally. Then the clutch pedal is depressed. After 5 - 7 seconds, the transmission is shifted to reverse while the clutch is depressed. At this time, you find a grinding noise, then the clutch disc or pressure plate may have got damaged.

Engage your parking brake and then press the clutch pedal partially. Then you have to shift from 1st gear to reverse and vice versa, this is done several times and the smoothness in the shifting is checked. If the shifting becomes hard with a grinding noise, then know that the release mechanism has some faults.

To check the pivot bushing, you have to check it visually. It is located between the clutch pedal and the pedal shaft.

If the pressing of the clutch pedal becomes harder, then know that there might be a clutch cable issue. The visual inspection of the frayed wires and the other corrosion is also required.

After the inspection the faulty parts such as the clutch plate, pressure plate, the release bearing, faulty clutch cable are to be replaced. The rusts are cleaned out and lubrication is increased by adding more oil.
