    Van Aaken Smartbox -extra wire?

    Hey - I had the exact one - mine is a red, black & white wires. Check out this site or send an e-mail to Joe Hafner. www.dieseltuning.ca - easiest way is to ask Joe. The extra wire connects to the accelerator pedal potentiometer wire. It's a white wire with a blue tracer.

    2009 Jetta TDI engine rattle

    Rattles all the time & Clunks in downshifting My 09 TDI Sportwagon - RATTLES - Sounds like an 18 wheeler in the morning - Had it back to a VW dealer twice - with no success. They (dealer) thought it may be the EGR valves - so they replaced them - it still RATTLES - all started around 2,000...

This is the 5th...

    Final Horrifyingly Stupid Question - OCI?

    Have an new 09 TDI SW with over 2,000 km (1,200 miles) in 1 month - checked the oil that was directly from the dealer and it's as clean as a whistle - not like the older diesels that I've owned, that would be black after driving 1 miles - but MUST USE 507.01 ONLY

    Heartbreak! Hallmark: All TDIs are delayed until summer '08

    Reason for Delay? Here's another point of view - perhaps there's just too much OLD DIESEL fuel stockpiled in the USA - and the NEW 2.0 TDI burns ONLY Low Sulphur - What's the thought on this?

    Need Recommendations For New Tires

    The best tire that I've had (so far) is the Bridgestone RE950's. Had the MXV4+ on my previous BMW 330i as well as original on 03 Jetta Wagon TDI. Just installed the RE950's and they are fantastic. Not as quiet, but grip like glue in wet (I pushed them to find out).

    Autotrans acting up when cold

    Godiesel - I've got the same thing - just got my new 05 Passat TDI GLS with Tip last week - sure wish they had a 5 or 6 speed manual instead - mine stays in 4th as high as 45 MPH and no heavy foot - P.I.T.A. for sure

    smoke + BAAAAAAAD fumes!

    Just had to say something...I live in Ontario - Canada and drive down and back to Florida 2 or 3 times a year. I have never ever used such BAD, DIRTY, ROTTEN diesel that is being sold in the USA. If the refineries cleaned up their diesel - you wouldn't have half the problems. - I've used...
