Description
So... I have a mk6 GTI with a bad motor. I already got a replacement for it: a used motor with only 37k miles on it. I've got a variety of new parts, (intake manifold, water pump, clutch upgrade, rear main seal, yada, yada, yada...), but I'm lacking both the motivation to do it by myself and the confidence that I'll get it all right. So I'm looking to hire someone who knows more than me about VW's to come HELP ME swap the engine and get this thing on the road again.
I DO NOT want to tow it to the shop that you work at.
I DO NOT want to tow it to your house/garage.
And I DO NOT want you to do it all for me!
What I DO want is to pay someone a fair hourly wage to come to my place and HELP me fix the car here. I have all of the typical tools that a guy who tinkers (a lot!) would have, I just don't have any of the VW specialty tools that might be needed here and there. And I have a hoist already. (The new engine is currently hanging from it.)
THIS HAS TO HAPPEN ON WEEKENDS! I work full time during the week. I could probably arrange to have a 3 day weekend though, if needed.
Please, I want to hire someone who is very, VERY familiar with these cars and the 2.0tsi engines. I'll be paying an hourly rate, so I need someone who actually knows what they're doing, not someone who's gonna scratch their head and look up How To videos on YouTube. (I do enough of that by myself!) I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in someone who just THINKS they can do a swap simply because you used to own a '94 Jetta and you did all of the work on it yourself. No offense.
Let's start with an email. If I'm interested, we can chat on the phone after that. Thanks
Jeff
