    I'm an idiot and ran myself out of AdBlue

    Oh, I didn't know that. The lady at VW customer care said, I should have gotten something in the mail about it, but never did. Good to know for future reference. Thank you for explaining.

    I'm an idiot and ran myself out of AdBlue

    Mine went down every 10, then to every 5 when it got close ( I believe). They told me it was a technical bulletin, I never got anything in the mail about it and bought the car CPO'd. At least VW covered the tow after I had to raise a little stink. Then just got a engine warning light a couple...

    I'm an idiot and ran myself out of AdBlue

    The car is finished, but I'm out of town. They told me that an update was needed as it wasn't registering the fluid. I just had the oil changed last Monday, but I guess they didn't check for updates during that time. Also had a recall done during this time for something else that I didn't know...

    I'm an idiot and ran myself out of AdBlue

    The problem was I only added the two bottles during that time, once I realized my mistake I then added 2.5 Gallons after the 150 Mile light came on. I did the reset multiple times and didn't work and continued to count down. The adblue reservoir was full. So it's at the dealer now, I'll keep...

    I'm an idiot and ran myself out of AdBlue

    Well we have, but I did get a 1500 before hand which seems weird. Unless I'm missing something in the thread, the 150 just came up. Sorry if a repeate question.

    I'm an idiot and ran myself out of AdBlue

    Well I got the red light of death on the way back to visit my Father. A little back story, I was headed from Michigan to Ohio and the light came one 1500 miles please add Adblue ..... so I added two of the .5 gallons each (aprox I thought) when I got home. I've usually added it along the way...

    Looking for feedback by people who got the spoiler

    I'm thinking about doing the same thing, but @ $250 it's hard to muster. I do love the look though of it. What color is your brothers car? Also, what are the other brands are you considering?

    Oil Change

    Thank you for the reply's. I know the interval on the oil change ;) I was curious as to if anyone was changing it earlier and if they a valid reason for doing so, that was all. I will keep with the stock interval changes.

    Oil Change

    I know a dreaded oil change thread. I was just curious as to if anyone was doing the oil changes earlier, say 5k instead of the 10k interval. Mine is CPO until the 60k, but everyone I've talked to suggests doing it earlier. I'm going to keep the car for a long while like I did my MK3 and have...

    I remote seems to have a mind of it's one with my car. Sometimes it beeps and other times it doesn't when locking and unlocking. Any tricks that I'm missing? Added: I would like it to beep.

    Picking up my tdi on Saturday!

    I'm also thinking about doing the fog light upgrade, I need to check with the dealer and see how much they would charge for install. $150 seems like a bargain.

    SEL Chrome Strips

    Has anyone installed them on a SE? Like the look of the strips on the front and rear doors. How hard was it? Recommend taking it it a body shop?

    Would you buy a 2012 with 75k miles?

    I ended up picking up a 2013 SE with 28K on it for 20.9K. It did come with with a CPO though. That was a great deal, hopefully he enjoys it. The torque is addicting, hard to keep the foot out of it compared to my old MKIII. That would be blast. Is it free I assume to tour the factory? Haven't...
