:eek: You're giving TheGrove a run for his money!

What do you do for work? Do you have a Fuelly page?

I do not have a Fuelly page, but I've considered it. I wish there was an app for it vs using the web.

I am in sales. (selling industrial hydraulics, pneumatics, and electromechanical products) My territory is most of Kentucky, but I also do a lot of personal driving too.

I have the fuelly app on my windows phone. If the app is available for windows phones, I'd think it would be available for all platforms.

Fuelly has an app for iPhone. I believe it's called GasTracker+!

Try the "Gas Tracker" app if u have an iPhone. Has a known glitch if you are following 3 vehicles. The app glitch is inputting information for the 2nd vehicle in the list.
Fuelly is neat (because it appears on this site) but I also use "Gas Cubby" as it has what seems to be a better tracking (charting) over time of the costs, fuel economy and gallons used. Also has service archives and alerts.

Thank you! I felt like a moron when typing "gas tracker" in the App Store and right under it, it says "Fuelly, LLC" Wow! haha.

I started logging it as of yesterday!

Unfortunately there isn't one for Android. Just an app that opens the mobile website.

Cool! Now you just need to add a badge to your signature. :)

Just a smidge below 60,000 miles... 59,850 +/- My dummy meter tells me that service is within 100-200 miles... I can't remember. It'll be serviced before 2014 hits... no worries! I have driven my car from day one per the break-in procedures stated by Drivebiwire (Pete), and I have used Mobil 1 5w40 Low Saps oil Formula M. I have had no issues with my drivetrain at all. Shifts are smooth, the car revs perfectly. Oil Consumption is minimal. I really enjoy this fine piece of machinery!

P.S. Thanks PETE (DRIVEBIWIRE) wherever the heck you are these days!!!!

I also follow DBW's break in and driving recommendations and oil consumption is unnoticeable. I know many say it is not a big deal but with my past two tdi's I have seen good results using his procedures...

Pete is a great guy in my view... always helpful and knowledgeable. I used to love to read his musings on this webpage many moons ago with my A4 Jetta Wagon TDI. Those days are gone, but hey, I've learned a lot and continue to learn from everyone here.

43,XXX on mine now. No issues so far. Where in the world is Pete (DBW)? Reliable sources tell me he has a 2013 Passat TDI in his stable of vehicles these days.
