Those guys are really cool.I have stopped by a couple times to chat with them.Not to far from my placecallmestu said:From my understanding, most of the cars we get in the US are made in mexico, engine and all. However, i'm pretty sure that NO TDI engine is made OUTSIDE if germany. that is- yes, your car is made in mexico, but the engine was made in germany.
am i right?
BTW, i'm new to this thread. i drive a burgundy TDI 2000 Jetta with a big ugly Thule roof rack on top (currently with two bike attachments.) i go all around the city and suburbs around 79 (up past grove city) down to south of 22. so i drive alot around that about 90degree spoke off the city. i also spend alot of time downtown. i drive all day for my job as a field worker, so many of you might be at work when i'm driving around, but look for me later in the day. i usually use JR from JR's water works in the Sewickley/cranberry area. he changed my timing belt recently (22,000mi) and i have had no problems with him at all, he fixed lots of other things for me as he specialized in VW but he got a TDi for his wife.
i am looking for some others that are working to change their TDi to veggie oil, as i have not converted my car yet, but have been working on it for two years now- haven't had the time finish. i hope to take the classes on diesel to SVO conversion offered at pgh's first conversion shop www.fossilfreefuel.com
hope to see yunz there!

The ride just threw a check engine light today coming back from school.
It takes a couple min or less to kick on. I'm guessing it has something to do with my EGR, I have been blowing some smoke, more than normal,maybe its time to finish that intake cleaning?
The smoke might also have to do with the weather and my sprint520s.Not sure though about this.When I first installed them It was rare to see smoke.Here and there but now its getting out of hand, I can usually control it with my right foot,but not always.
IQ? Timing maybe?
Also noticed that my oil was low,this may be nothing.
I noticed a loss of power after filling up yesterday at a getgo,that I suspect the Diesel just sits there.I added some cetane booster with the fill up.
After work I got in my car and noticed a dip in power(before the light came on).
It seems normal performance wise now,after class and after the light came on. any Ideas?
I'd just take it to someone,but I barely have time during the week to eat.Theres a Vag at Fossilfreefuel 5 min from my house,but I wolnt have time till after they close tomorrow.
