Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General General Made in Germany

A while ago I'd told in this Forum about mysterious klickings and fire in my stering wheel. at last cruise, alarm blinker were gone too. i went to an mechanic & he chnaged for 140bucks the 'blinker'? "bar"?? on the left side of the steering wheel, and everthink is fine know. then I'd closer look to the old blinkerbar (i don't know what it is called)
all about it says 'Made in Germany' ! If u know the current VW commercial it says 'German engineered'.
SO how much is the Contour 'German' too?


p.s. anyhow I wouldn't buy a VW crap!

The Contique is a "world car" Part are made all over the world. I've found some from Canada and Germany and the US so far that I can recall. I'm sure there are plenty more countries including many in Europe.

It was a world car, most everyone on CEG knows about the Ford Mondeo.

Now, companies don't try to be all things to all countries. The next generation Mondeo will be Volvo based, and the Mazda 6 will spawn new Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury cars in 2005 for '06 model year.

You mean the blinker switch that the stalk for your turn signals is on? You mean the $50 part that takes 10 minutes to put in but yet cost $90 for installation?

they changed the whole stalt on the left. I've got a piece, which has on the left the blinker and at the top the 'hazard-warning signal flasher' (thats what the dictionary says)
and the new one is a used, to keep it cheap.
