The cards never did work for me at Costco and have also been denied at some other locations but it is accepted at most others - there's not really any pattern that I can see. I just try the VW card first and have a backup if necessary. I'll work through them eventually but it is kind of a...

Yes, they were activated and I had no problem using the dealer cards. I'll try some other places and hopefully it is only a Costco thing.

I had been saving my compensation Visa cards for the switch over at Costco from Amex and now I've tried to use them a couple of times and no go on both of them (I have 2 TDIs, so 2 Visa cards). Anyone else have any issues? I called VW customer service and they said they were good and also gave...

Of course since I posted about this observation, I had a regen this morning. It definitely still seems less frequent than before which is fine by me.

I have a '15 Golf, ~11K miles. I don't keep any records but I would consistently detect a regen cycle (both while driving or when arriving at my destination and the fan keeps running) at least once per tank and sometimes more frequently until recently. Again, no records but this is what is...

I've been using the white on my Touareg in the winter and the silver during the rest of the year. I treat every tank when I'm home but don't treat it when I'm away from home. I feel this treatment isn't absolutely necessary but it gives me peace of mind and may compensate for variations in...

Thanks for all the replies. I got the call my car has arrived and I'll be picking it up this evening. It is a white SEL TDI manual with lighting package - should be sweet!

I test drove a Mk7 manual TDI and found I was shifting it like I would shift a gas engine, meaning at around 3K+ RPMs. I realized I didn't need to rev this high on a diesel for normal driving but I wasn't able to experiment really on the short test drive. While I'm waiting for my Golf to be...

Thanks! That's the operation what I was hoping for. I should note the Passat that was press and hold to start was a TSI.

I have a SEL on order and am curious about the keyless start operation on the Golf. Can you depress and release the button immediately and the car will start or do you have to depress and hold until the car starts? I had a Passat loaner and the button had to be held until the car started...

20K on our 2013 Lux and the only problem has been a failed temperature sensor which was fixed under warranty of course. A bit disappointing to have something to note already but not really a big deal either. I did buy the 7 year, 100K warranty though, just in case. It is an excellent vehicle...

Where to buy? (Seattle area) I've heard that these 'extended build' 2006 Jetta TDI's that are still on dealer lots are available basically at invoice. I've seen several that appear to have been sitting for quite a while. Any dealers in the Seattle area selling these at invoice? I'd...
