Well you all scared me out of Rotella-T. Got Mobil 1 TDT 5w40. 100Kmi on the car. Hopefully another 100 to come. Was using Castrol 5w30 505.01 as sold by dealers. In hindsight I think I would have been fine with Rotella-T but who knows and I wanted to use an oi that others members have...

oh..guess i should return it then ...anyone else use it an have uoa with positive results. One search resulted in one member with a positive experience. Anyone learn "The hard way" with this oil

Has anyone tried SHell's Rotella T SAE-5W40 CJ-4, CI-4+, CI-4, CH-4, CG-4, CF/SM? I have an 06TDI 1.9L (PD) about 100K mi. I realize the bottle is not stamped with the VW 505.01 approval. My search results have given mixed responses. TIA

Anyone stretching the 10K interval for oil changes when using a full synth like Mobil 1 or Rotella-T 5w40?

I was going to try and disassemble dash by glove box....Has anyone done this..am i in over my head. From under the hood I could not locate the problem

anyone

I have an 06 TDI Jetta. Every time I start the car I hear a buzzing noise under the glove box. It lasts for about 5 seconds---feels like 3 minutes. I can easily replicate the noise by pushing the recir air button on my air control. Also I noticed when I put the car in reverse it also...

Ok- So is this a fair statement: Depending on the crude oil used (raw material), the refining process, and energy used to process, varying amounts of gasoline and/or diesel can be produced. In some cases more diesel can be refined than gasoline or vice versa. The process design of the...

Let me try to ask this another way: If I could choose a Crude that is best suited for Diesel, would I be able to produce more or at least as much gasloine? In addition, is gasoline ALWAYS a product of refining crude or could I potentially refine other products and not get out a drop of gas...

go there all the time. "kids corner" touches ont he issue. Just doesn't directly address shifts in refining-etc.

I have been researching the percentages of petroleum products dervied from a "barrel" of crude. Assumptions: 1 Barrel = 42 Gallons The barrel is of Crude is Constant. Let's not complicate the matter with different types of crude. Question: I have a single barrel of let's say "North Brent"...

You guys are tough... It wasn't just the fuel filter. I brought it in telling them the car was sputtering and I wanted them to change the fuel filter (after I was advised that was the problem by members on this site). Wel, they proceeded to do a diagnosic fee (even though I told them what...

ready.....$412 I am so pissed off. This same dealer charged me 350 for a fuel filter ...which I do myself now. Since it was airbags i didn;t want to mess around. need a good independent in Bergen COunty NJ.

Joe- Care to post the bulletin?

I'll wait for a few more.... Already paid and you are all not even close....

here is the scenario.... Your airbag light turned on. You bring your car to the dealer. They tell you it is a faulty wire harness. It is $x to repair..... What would you pay? Pls no coments about not going to the dealer....

This is not meant to be troll bait.... I bought Motul 5w40 for the first time. I put it in last week. Every day for the last two years I have been blowing out the turbo at the same toll booth. Every tim eI look in my mirror I see some soot and smirk especially when someone driving a prius...

Every time I start my car I here a "buzzing" noise. I am pretty sure it is coming from under the glove box. Definitely makes the noise when I turn on the internal air circulate button. Was thinking of changing the cabin filter. Maybe something is stuck it there like a leaf??? Anyone have...

ditto- First time I brought it to the dealer. Charged me somewhere are $300 to fix it. Gave me a line about testing out electric, flushing lines, etc etc. I just changed my fuel filter (1st time) this past weekend (70,000 mi). Easy to do. Easier than an oil change for sure (accessibility).

I followed the DYI on the fuel filter change. Worked like a charm. Have a 2006 (fuel filter with two holes). I beleive that is the older version of the filter. Anyway, One thing I did was use a turkey baster to take out the fuel....now what? How do you dispose of about 10oz of dirty fuel...
