I was going to do my own farewell but it would have said the same, minus the plug for the for sale thread. Only extra I can say is tdiclub is one of a kind. Wish their were other car forums this detailed and helpful. Good luck to all keeping your cars.

Ding, we have a winner. Maybe they had to cheat because they didn't have the resources to effect regulatory and legal change as outlined in our constitution and legal precedents?

Use screen door material and compression brass eyelets to diy your own. Attach with short bungie cords. Its what ive done for years with trucks.

Come on folks they are all pedestrian cars made by a pedestrian company. The buyback is merely an unexpected business deal. Im supposed to turn down a purchase offer because why exactly? Anyone could buy my car for the money VW is offering. Thats all that matters.

Can I get a number 5? 5. Oh it can tow. Well okay. But Ive got a truck thatll tow it and whatever is attached so lemmed juat skip the car part

Nope. Its a pedistian car not some sculpted italian exotic that looks like its moving while parked. I have no love for this car more than any other. Its time to go is and has been since before September tied to the 120k turbo warranty for a while in my mind.

I think that is exactly the point of the restriction. That and removing the ability for any country to blame the US gov if and when the cars show up.

Considering Merc and BMW bot were able to figure out how to get a 3 litre V6 compliant with US law its possible. The 2 litre is where everyone else was scratching their head how VW had been able to do it.

What if you want to keep the car but dont believe any CR diesel from any manufacturer fits your ideal of durable.

Thanks for your tips. Sadly neither one answers their phone. Now that the damn car just threw a cel I might have to waste my vw credit at the dealer.

Thanks. Ill try Euro. I couldnt find a good number for Gauntlett. What specific city are they are in ?

Just moved to Miami area. Need a mechanic for fuel filter change as all tools are in storage and I couldn't get to it before we left. Ill even settle for a respected dealership in the area that hopefully doesnt gouge.

There at least one more member here aware of the goings on at CCC when first published ;)

Mine was more along the lines of, well that sounds exactly like something theyd do. Amusement the same as yours just from a different viewpoint.

Nope. Because I am in no way concerned. Ive been with diesels for years in everything. I finally gave VW a chance. This mess hasnt altered my opinion of tdis or vw one bit.

Semi permanent and for off road use only right. Both equal the same thing. Why people gotta skate around these discussions always make me laugh. The first response nailed it. Disabling a sensor intended to help keep everything working is a bad idea unless all said equipment is also removed...

Disabling a nox sensor or egr would make your car illegal too.

Yes. If the ecu doesnt get a correct response from each injector it will prevent starting instead of allowing a short or other issue. Id check the injector connectors first. One might just be loose.

You dont have to replace them all. Even if there isnt a code for the specific one in the ecu it doesnt take much brain power to teouble shoot. I think dealers replace all of them because its quicker than going thru tge trouble shooting and learning procedure.

Vw moved the auto trans to 50k. They did not move the DSG. It is 40k. Dealers have been messing this up for years now.
