    Any Club Members in W. Michigan?

    Back in a TDI I'm from Greenville. I'm back into a diesel after a two year affair with a GTI. They may be a little quicker, but I missed my oilburner almost immediately. A warning for any who may be thinking of doing the same.... DON'T. I'm very happy with my 2010 JSW. It's nice to skip at...

    Need Stereo Help in Grand Rapids

    I think I've blown a fuse behind my stock double-din stereo. Does anyone have a set of keys so I can pull it out and check them? Best Buy wanted $20 to just check them.

    2008 Jetta TDI sighted!!! (pics)

    But.... Hydrogen doesn't have to be created from fossil fuel generated electricity, but right now you do need electricity. We would only have to build about 50 nuclear power plants to provide a fraction of the hydrogen needed to replace fossil fuels. (Disclaimer... the number 50 was...

    potential owner needs help

    TDIHeater is nicer than a block heater Keeps your coolant warm and circulating. Instant heat in the morning and it starts even better in the winter when I have it plugged in than it does in the summer. Maybe it could be mounted to a Benz? Highly recommended, even though it's not necessary, if...

    West Michigan GTG September 9, 2006

    No intake cleaning for me Not going to make it to the GTG until after 12:00 O'Clock. Probably don't want to start a big project unless I could start the project at the same time others would be starting, as I would need guidance. Looking forward to meeting some enthusiasts though. Most...

    What should I pay for this TDI?

    With an automatic... I wouldn't go higher than $10,500. The mileage is quite a bit worse with an automatic. For my money that reduces the value somewhat. It'll take longer to recoupe your investment, considering you could buy a honda or toyota with the same mileage(110,000) for 2-4k less...

    New TDI Special Edition to be offered

    hey now Quote - they can keep their pay as you go "radio" Sat Radio is the best thing since sliced bread; I’ll never be without it in any car I drive. Unfortunately it was a faulty VW antenna that moved me to buy Sirius in the first place. That happy mistake has made me a die-hard believer in...

    Mobil 1 Delvac in Grand Rapids, MI

    Impex screwed up Seeing the sweet price at Impex I immediately ordered 2 gallons of Mobil 1 Delvac. When the box arrived they had shipped me two 5 litre bottles of Motul 5W-40. I was already set to do my oil change so I used it anyway. When I e-mailed them to ask why this was done they said...

    Mobil 1 Delvac in Grand Rapids, MI

    Another Source for delvac 1 in GR I happened to go into the mobil gas station on Rivertown Parkway right off of I-96 and found gallon jugs of delvac 1 5W-40. I was quite surprised considering it isn't usually stocked in auto stores, and here it was on the shelf at a gas station. Price doesn't...

    I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to be there this go round, but it sounds like I have a lot of guys to give me feedback on how many MPG's your losing with RC2 and RC3 chips. I want REAL world before and after numbers too. I realize that with a chip your supposed to be able to get slightly...
