    FS 2001 Jetta TDI Garden Valley CA $1000

    Sold!!!!!!!! Auto trans, crank windows. 220,000 miles. Has power steering issues, also alternator is not charging, I think the belt is slipping due to power steering leak. Could be a builder, but not sure how much life is left in the trans. Would be great for a conversion project. Registration...

    Next generation renewable diesel now available in NorCal?

    I've been using HPR for a while. My IP was replaced before I got the car, no issues. It feels faster on the HPR.

    Great work. Have you calculated the MPG yet?

    Renewable Lubes Inc BioSyn 5w40

    I've been using the renewable lubes biosyn 5w40 for over a year now and it has been great. I haven't bothered sending any to the lab because I know my cars run better on it. Also I've only done one oil change in the last year, I only put about 10,000 miles on the car last year, and the oil...

    It looks great. Does this mean you're not going to take it on the Rubicon?

    vw XL1 diesel technology

    I agree, if the Top Gear America can make a fast car get 70mpg for $7k like their Project Sipster, the auto companies are really dragging their feet. I refuse to believe there's no market for those things here. It's just like the Amarok, and the Global Ranger and all of those vehicles we can't...

    FAW-VW Bora Concept Uses Wheel Motors

    That's why I like the idea too. Bolt on power and fuel economy. You and I have talked about Protean on this forum a few times over the years, I wonder if VAG reads this stuff?

    Hemp to Biodiesel

    Hemp takes a lot out of the soil, but would work great on a rotation with soy and corn. There's a reason it's illegal. It competes with timber, cotton, oil, and pharmaceuticals. But even if it's not feasible for making bio-diesel it makes a heck of a car body...

    Just paid this off after a year of ownership. RIP.

    Wow, sorry about your luck, I'm surprised how well your mkIV held up. It makes me feel safer in mine.

    2016 Chevrolet Colorado Diesel

    I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this will be my next company truck. I drive a 2012 Colorado 4x4 with the 4 cyl right now, and it could use some more torque.

    FAW-VW Bora Concept Uses Wheel Motors

    http://www.electric-vehiclenews.com/2013/12/protean-faw-vw-china-to-develop-rwd-in.html It seems I'm not the only one who likes this dumb idea. FAW-VW, a Chinese subsidiary of VW has announced a partnership with protean electric

    And yet another Toyota swap, but M-Tdi.

    This thing is looking better and better. When you get done you need to drive up here and take your truck on the Rubicon Trail. You could probably find a big market for that E-locker cable setup.
