Dear Vasja,
   The variance model is not robust to misspecification of the mean model.
You need to properly specify your mean model before attempting to
model the conditional error variance.    Variations in specification of the mean
model will clearly affect the modeling of the conditional error variance from it.
         Regards,
              Bob Yaffee
