TDI
2002 TDI (ALH) with 513,000 km. First Owner and very happy... No Problems, never left us stranded on the Highway. Average useage is about between under 4 ltr. and 5 ltr. Normal longdistance travel: 4.1/100
Has there been any evidence of people getting paid out less then they should from insurance companies if their TDI was totaled in an accident? This seems like more of an opinion then concrete fact. If you look at the prices of used TDI's, there hasn't been any major collapse at all. So where are all these rock bottom prices coming from?

Those Rock Bottom Prices are only in the Head and in Dreamland.:rolleyes:

That Cum-On can't go nowhere without a tranny....on the Durge, they suck!
Used to, but recently been solid for years, again, unless you are one of the inbreeder crowd who do illegal and stupid mods . . .

Apparently you haven't looked at a Cummins in about a decade then. Same aftertreatment as a TDI. The *ONLY* reason it may emit more than a TDT is that it is also 3x or better the power output . . .

And again, we aren't talking about the ones bastardized by the inbreeders . . .

Yup, got one in the 2016 46 passenger bus I drive at work. it is also in a different smog class which is pretty wide open for emmissions compared to the specs for the Golf.

my statement still stands.

That's not the Ram truck we were talking about, so who knows what trans . . . so a totally irrelevant data point. Stand on it all you like - it's meaningless . . .
