Hey guys, Being sent abroad. Looking to offload my stop sale TDI. Purchased in Aug 17. 17,000km. Link to Auto trader http://www.autotrader.ca/a/Volkswagen/Golf/QU%C3%89BEC/Quebec/19_10526315_/?orup=1_15_55&pc=G1R+3R2&sprx=-1

I get about 40-41 MPG avg once she goes below -20 celsius. It would be more like 36-37 MPG if I drove at normal speeds. I tend to drive much slower in winter, about 5-10 kmh below the limit. There are just too many unknowns once things get that cold, particularly the new trend of not leaving...

Use the engine block heater, wear warm ****. Drive for the first 20min without any heat (turn on for 30s-1min only when driving if windshield begins to collect water vapour). It sucks but it will help your economy. Good thing those seat warmers are effective! I've noticed having the heat on...

Better off using the block heater. In Quebec City / Edmonton it gets $#$#@$ cold. -30C is common. Idling produces heat only if vents are off. I let her idle for a minute and then drive slow / steady / low RPM until the engine is nice and warm. Then I open the vents to lowest setting if in...

Warranty This is a pretty ****ty thread Warranty on new 15 TDI is included with my purchase according to dealer I will confirm when I pickup in May If you read the emissions modification document it doesn't seem to care when / how the vehicle was purchased. If you get pt2 you are covered...

Change of plans, instead of financing a new 15' TDI @ 0% I'm going to pay cash ($6,500 off MSRP) In Canada you can put the Sept 15 fair market value towards the purchase of a new VW. My current 15 TDI has a fair market value of about $17,027ish. Loan is paid. Trading in a 15' Golf manual S...

Seems like some dealers are trying to profit due to demand. 5k off is the minimum, w 0% financing There is a good spreadsheet on the Canadian VW TDI thread on FB which outlines the rebates depending on make/model + payment method Don't get screwed

TSB has been sent to Cdn dealers for a refit of these vehicles before being sold Going to try and get my hands on it and post "In order to assist with preparing vehicles for sale, Volkswagen Canada has provided an Extended Inspection process released as a Technical Service Bulletin. This TSB...

For compensation you must have purchased the vehicle before the discovery of the ****show... so if you pull the trigger on a new 15 TDI like myself you will get the pt 1 delivered + the refit. You will be expected to do part 2, timeline TBC. Pt 2 is where the warranty comes into play. If you...

Pull the trigger!! Don't think... FEEL I can't wait to be driving a 15' TDI in the 2030's... watching people scramble on the side of the road for a charging station

Pulled the trigger 15 Golf manual S / (trendline) 5k off, 0% financing 23,600 all in Selling back my current 15 TDI when possible, delivery of new 15 TDI end May

Golf trendline Hey guys, 15, Golf, manual w cruise, trendline 23,600 all in (Quebec) Couldnt say no, I have the same car now and I love it. Will sell back current 15 TDI for 24k, loan is paid.

timeline i'm keeping the car now, this is a great deal is anyone tracking that there is a major incentive to show up to phase 2 with 110,000km? i mean a new SCR, CAT, DPF means you can easily take your car to 300,000km without worrying much if you show up with less than 110,000km you will get...

Keeping it Warranty is good, fix is ish... looks cool. I'm keeping her I will do my best to kick can down the road for Ph 2 modification I want 110,000km on the clock so I can get a new SCR, DPF, Cat (instead of just a Cat sometime before 210,000km)

Stage 0.5 to be honest with you i'm a huge idiot when it comes to ECU tuning straight pipe + stage 0.5 = better efficiency / a more simple system (no DPF crap to deal with) my intuition tells me if you ask for more HP you will ask engine to work harder. i want to avoid a stage 1 if possible...

Looking to keep my car post dieselgate. Biggest concern is emissions equipment. Would you guys recommend a stage 0.5? I don't care about power or performance. Efficiency and reliability are my main concerns, I want to drive this car for another 14 years and laugh my way to the gas station...

Honestly what do you replace it with? Diesel is dead Gas is min $700 more fuel/month (a fun car) Electric cars freeze, need garage/home base My biggest concern with keeping 15 Manual TDI S is future cost of maintenance. Could it not skyrocket?
