I'm seriously considering purchasing an 07 Grand Cherokee CRD. Before I make the leap, I would like to know your experiences with this machine..good and bad. I was originally going to get a Toureg 10cylinder TDI but the horror stories about tires wearing in 10-12k miles, brakes wearing...

Not my ad, feel free to bombard the seller with emails letting him know how greedy he is :D http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/850184673.html

I'm curious, if Obama and his colleagues enact a windfall profits tax on the greedy oil companies, how soon after this tax is enacted will I see a noticeable decrease of fuel prices at the pump? The high cost of gas and diesel is killing me personally on my income and I'm not against punishing...

Located in San Antonio, TX Just put 4,000 miles of highway on her so you can be rest assured that she is a reliable vehicle. My best fuel economy on the many legs of my trip was 49.47mpg with cruise set at 65. Worst fuel economy was with a headwind and two bikes on a trunk mounted bike rake...

I consistently get 43mpg in winter and 45 mpg in summer with 75-80 speed during my daily commute. Today: 1000 miles into my 1500 trip to Florida from Colorado. I have gotten only 31mpg! This is my first foray into anything below 40mpg.:eek: I do have two mountain bikes on a bike rack but...

2006 Jetta TDI Thanks for all the interest in my ad.

I have a weird clunk sound that occurs when I release the accelerator pedal. The dealership service writer said the subframe bolts were loose and the service tech retorqued them. I would like to know if these bolts are stretch bolts meaning they cannot be retorqued and need to be replaced...

I saw a hilarious bumper sticker on a Cummins powered dually truck yesterday and gotta share it with you. It said "My lugnuts have more torque than your rice burner".

I have a Vag-Com that only works for PD engines available for use in Colorado Springs area. I'm not charging for its use but won't decline donations in the form of diet coke :-)

Saw a nice looking Scout at the diesel station this evening. It had a Mercedes Benz turbocharger with a 3 inch exhaust and power brakes as non-OEM mods. The owner, Jim W, said it had 270,000 miles and ran like new-he limits boost to 6 psi though the turbo can easily give twice that sustained. He...

I just finished installing a 1500 watt zerostart 8000 series install in my 5 speed TDI. The install was fairly simple and did not require any special shaped hoses. Pictures of my install will follow shortly. Here are the parts that I used: 8000 Series Zerostart heater from JC Whitney $53.99...

Just wanted to give a plug to Terry for a very well designed product. I installed a frostheater into an 06 DSG for a fellow TDI member this morning and was pleased by the experience. I definitely recommend the frostheater kit to someone whose time is limited and doesn't mind spending a very...

Just finished installing a provent CCV in an 06 Jetta-may or not be mine depending if you are the VW dealer who read this post (for obvious warranty purposes ;-) Thanks for the tip on how to upload photos. A special thanks to the TDI guru who fabricated the bracket for my install.

Anybody install a zerostart heater in their A3? If so, how was the install. Is there a similar oil cooler heater setup as on the A4 and A5 TDIs? Where did you install it? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I finally got my wife to agree to go mountain biking with me. However, it required me to install a 80cc 2 stroke engine on her bike (http://thatsdax.com/) I occasionally play with her bike when she isn't using it and am in desperate need of more performance. It only has a 6:1...
