The spot where the cars are worked on depends on the solar cycle. In simple english it means that the cars are parked where there is a bit of shade, dirt or paved does not matter.

Using a floor jack on dirt = SUICIDE, for shade do what I used to do - 2 or 3 giant picnic umbrellas (I nicked them from Walls Ice cream) - portable shade..

Good idea. I, however, make sure that the cars are secured on jack stands before any work commences and my constant nagging has got them in the habit of using the stands now everytime they are working under the car.

jackstands on dirt are a full complete case of suicide. some cement slabs would work - or better use ramps, their loading area is more spread out

Would any self respecting man agree to ride in this new beetle even if it came with this bimbo?

I am just glad to see a BUG as an icon in the driving test center.
Now I'll have to check Karchi's driving test center.

Recently we've been facing an issue in a couple of bugs including mine. The master cylinder jams. It seems that the rubber seals expand and restrict the piston movement. This has happened twice in about 6 months. By the way, its a single piston cylinder(shouldn't my bug have a double piston?)

Is it because of bad quality rebuild kits? Where can i find a good rebuild kit?

The brake washers can swell due to poor quality (read 2 number) brake fluid. They also swell due to poor quality material used in the manufacture. I have a few original ATE Germany rebuild kits for master cylinders, single and double and I always replace the brake fluid in my car yearly. So far never faced this issue.

I have been using the same brand(Seiken Dot3) for many years, never had a problem. Possibly a "2 number" Seiken now. Which brake fluid do you suggest?

feeding from the wheel cylinder bleeding plugs/valves instead of feeding from the reservoir.

How will this feeding method make a difference? The only difference i see is that no bleeding will be required and it will eliminate any chance of air in the system.

DOT 3 is the correct brake fluid and Seiken is a good brand PROVIDED it is the correct (1 number). You can buy from a reputable auto shop and they would surely stock the right one.
