Hi everyone,
Forgive the newbie question... I might just be overly nervous with my new TDI, but I want to be careful and keep this thing running for hundreds and hundreds of thousands of miles!
I read in the manual that I shouldn't use fuel with a biodiesel blend higher than 5% in the 2011 engine. Doing so, the manual claims, will ruin the engine and void my warranty.
Here's the thing: Most of the diesel pumps in my area (Evanston, IL) have stickers on them that say something like "the fuel at this pump may contain a blend of biodiesel between 5% and 20%". Should I avoid these pumps?
It's already a bit of a gamble to find diesel pumps in my area (this is E85 country, 'round here), so I'd really like to keep my options open. It would be a drag to have to fuel up at the same one or two stations.
Thanks everyone!
