Not knowing where in CT, here are my recommendations. EuroAuto in Bethlehem has done quite a bit of work on my three Vanagons. (He helicoiled my oil drain when the local JiffyLube (please no flames) screwed it up) In Danbury I'd talk to Ray Smith Motors on Osborne St. Also has worked on my VWs and specializes.
