    Dieselgate, The Canadian Edition

    How many parked their cars? The online calculator value drops from 16800 to 14400 after 80000km on my golf. I'm currently at 78000 and thinking of getting an in-between car. It's a big drop $.

    Dieselgate, The Canadian Edition

    I also have a gen 1, and I agree, there might not be a fix, too costly for VW. So as I now understand,if I keep the car and want the fix, the 5K is only if they even come out with one. Kinda playing chicken game :(

    Heater issue

    Thanks for your reply. It's kinda hard to see if this does anything as my issue is that I only have heat on "full hot"; because the sensor thinks the car interior is above 25C.
