Re: Oil Burning
I can't find the issue now, but in the most recent Consumer Reports
(Feb 82, I think) they mention the problem.  They seem to fix that
the valve seals will fix it.  They also say that the recall is only
being honered for certain VW's - many years and all non-fuel injection
rabbits and non-rabbits are excluded, although I gathered they also
affect most of these.  Apparently the US Government is currently suing
VW to get a wider recall.  They advise owners of non-recalled VW's to
get it fixed now and save the receipts - if the government wins the suit
you might get a refund.  Since this is all from memory, of course you
should go buy the issue if you're affected.
