    So, no 2016 GSW TDi in the United States? Why?

    You're not gonna see a VW TDI for a while. VW's "funked" in the US. Following the government investigation of Volkswagen’s diesel emissions, The Detroit News reports the automaker ordered its U.S. dealerships to halt sales of new 2016 and remaining 2015 TDI car models with 2.0-liter diesel...

    5-Year Report

    Almost 5 years on my 2010 JSW TDI DSG. Just hit 70K miles. Any big work: Air conditioner compressor replaced just before warranty expired, the exhaust flap issue taken care of. Best mileage on a long trip: 45 MPG on a mad dash NYC suburbs/Chicago suburbs. New Michelin MXV's added at 37K, new...

    Best replacement tire- '10 jsw

    Just got the MXM4's, replacing the stock Hankooks, which after 35K miles looked and rode rough. Took a 35 mile drive on dry roads with all sorts of surfaces - new asphalt, old asphalt, concrete old and new ... and found the Michelins much quieter for starters. I'll take another look at their...

    from 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid to 2012 JSW TDI

    Did the same - traded in a 2005 Ford Escape Hybrid for a 2010 JSW. So far, so good. JSW is a much better ride, though I got used to a lower-to-the-ground ride than the small SUV Escape gave.

    First Road Trip Experience

    Good luck, just did a nice trip with my 2010 JSW too, nice high-speed interstates and the NJ Turnpike, beating the latest snowstorm. Just a reminder for fuel - look for the diesel short pumps with the normal length fuel hose - the high ones with the long hoses are normally for trucks. Guy who...

    2010 JSW Fuel Economy Disappointment

    Just finished a nice road trip NY-Charlottesville-DC-NY, finished just in time before the big snow hit. Averaged in the mid-40's ... got great mileage in stretches on I-78/I-81 and the big almost non-stop DC-NY run [Balt-Wash Pkwy to I-95 to NJ Tpke to NYC] Really comfortable ride, smooth. Took...

    "Volkswagen uses Mexican railway TFM to transport finished vehicles from its plant in Puebla, Mexico to Laredo, Texas. There it connects with BNSF and Union Pacific railways to the United States, while some connect with Canadian National and Canadian Pacific railways to Canada. In total...

    My JSW is in production

    There is a line in the VW Vortex forums where a dealer can be queried about the status of an ordered vehicle. It's called the Ask a Salesperson thread. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=4397743&page=178 You must have certain information about your order to get details. US orders only...

    Storage Drawer

    Just ordered one for the drivers side from OEM Plus. They said it'll fit a 2010 JSW that has only the semi-automatic seat [one power point only, no power back-forth or lumbar] Only question I have, and I should have posed it to the OEM Plus folks, was the passenger side, since the hard foam...

    All diesel created equal?

    Hess diesel? At least here in the NYC area there are plenty of Hess stations with diesel, and many of them have the lowest price around. Always liked doing the Hess thing ... got the toy tanker trucks when I was a kid, wished I saved them as the originals are valuable collectors' items ...:D...
