Hey all,

This is prevalent on every forum i read, but why do the collective 'we' see a post from someone asking a question and you will often see the first reply or two be things like "its in the manual". you don't see it that often here but it still does occur.

Given we are a community and I like to think that we try and help out our fellow Vw'ers as much as possible why don'y we reply with something like "It's in the manual, but FYI, its a case of 1), 2) and 3)" that way you are 1) pointing them in the right direction and 2) giving them the information that they ask for. Just seems a bit of a waste to take the effort of posting but not answer the question? I am all for the "don't give them a fish, teach them to fish" but cant you do both? Especially when you obviously know how to do it since you know its the manual? Just an observation of all forums that I read and it irks me. If someone is on the side of the road with a flat tyre, you're not (possibly you are?) going to just tell someone" yeah the tyre iron will be in the boot under the carpet and then drive off, you would stay and help surely? same difference?
