Thanks! If only I really knew what it was going to be used for, so I could get the perfect one! lol One of the things I worry about with those two is that they are now owned by the same company, and it is just a bunch of investors, so profits are the bottom line now, not quality. Also, without...

One of the things you sign when you sell the car back gives VW permission to recover the sales tax on the vehicle.

The hazing draws attention from the rest.

Hard starting might be "frozen intercooler". You haven't given us a location or the temps it happens at, so we can only guess, but do a search and see if it matches. I don't think dpf or egr filter issues cause rough idle, so that might be something completely different. As long as it moves...

I have something to add regarding H2 fueling stations: I worked for a fuel cell company, and they were able to use fuel cells to create H2 from natural gas and compress it to the proper pressure. The mail fuel cell would produce power and heat for the building or facility where it is located...

It could be on the inboard side, so it might be difficult to see. It is much easier to see when mounted on the balancer.

The NADA clean trade in value is what VW is using.

Car goes back Friday. Help me clean out the storage room!

His opinion echoes a Reuters report last autumn which stated that new emissions tests had exposed flaws in downsized engines. In real life, the report stated, these turbocharged units have a tendency to overheat when their tiny turbos are called on to deliver real-world performance. To combat...

That went quick! Congrats!

Some providers do require the vehicle to be registered. I don't know if the one VW chose does. Most of the time the tow driver can choose to ignore that requirement.

I have a set of shocks, struts, and front springs, if anyone needs to return to a stock suspension. I've also got rear springs with the first coil broken off. I wouldn't install them in a normal car, but they'll work perfectly if you're turning it in.

Also have a 1 gallon bottle of XPD and asymmetric mirrors.

Coal Roller, I know you are correct. But, the other side of the story is that there are ways to clean up the NOx. I think the simplified situation is that you can have low CO, low NOx, and low cost/complexity, but you have to choose between two of the three. The part I find most ironic is that...
