VW Jetta 2.0 Mark IV Engine Noise on Start Up

Having some issues with engine noise on my 2.0 Jetta. Seems like it's an exhaust valve or vacuum issue (secondary air pump), but not sure how to diagnose.

GnuCash, Small Business and Depreciation

Keeping track of depreciation for a small business is a hassle but once you get it setup it doesn't look to hard to maintain and track.

Nice explanation of tracking depreciation using Gnucash here:

http://stuff.mit.edu/afs/sipb/project/gnucash/1.6.4/arch/sun4x_58/share/gnome/help/gnucash/de_DE/xacc-depreciation.html

and here:

http://gnucash.org/docs/v2.4/C/gnucash-guide/dep_accounts1.html

Probably easiest to use a tax program like TurboTax to compute your annual deprecation on your assets and then update Gnucash. That way you can generate accurate financial statements and it's all tracked in one program.
