Teeing up the 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen TDI https://www.yahoo.com/autos/s/teeing-2015-volkswagen-golf-sportwagen-tdi-153000756.html

Costco will be adding diesel at its new big box in Woodland Hills, in the west San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles. But if, from what I hear on these threads, the pumps have truck-stop pressure ... I'll move on.

I would recommend NOT modifying your TDI engine until you sort it out and get thoroughly acquainted with it. Just my .02.

What the heck was the "FE improvement?" I don't recall seing a mention of it in this thread. :confused:

There used to be GTGs here every other year or so. Then interest kind of split between the bio fuel freaks and the diesel geeks. Then it dropped from there, unless you went to Leonard's BBQs at Wild Rose Motors -- some of the best TDI parties in town. Count me in. '00 Golf TDI 2-door.

Yeah, I BLEW it, pard, lol. I should have checked the Fuels and Lubricants threads more often.

Am scrambling, too. Was at Wally World today and found it has cancelled sales of ANY 5-40, Shell or Mobil. Its Website also lists no oil, so it can't be special ordered. Pep Boys in my area has NEVER sold 5-40 syn. I just checked AVLube and found Delvac 1 for $150 a case, or roughly $37.50...

Time? "Some family members and I will be at the facility pretty early for set-up; I think that early birds can start rolling in around 10AM or so. This will probably wind down around dusk. I don't have a set time slot for Steve Oliver as of yet but he will perform for a full 3 hours, maybe...

Kooyajerms, Yes, if any little bit of alt fuel helps, then I'm all for it. I just recall news reports that the global price of corn, rice and pork soared during the recent fuel spike, partly because of U.S. farmers switching crops to grow fuel corn for ethenal and biodiesel. Same thing...

I agree: Motor On. Trouble is, I know the cheapest fuel stations in 25 miles, and plan my fillups to save a cent. And without engaging in a tit-for-tat debate, I believe the bloom is off of BioD: a) it's a rip-off at the pump b) there's not nearly enough farmland to slake the nation's fuel...

You can have it. I have have driven two diesel cars, a TDI and an older MB, for nine years and have never touched biodiesel. When alt fuel venders respect consumers half as much as they watch their wallets, I'll be glad to visit their stations. Instead, they charge boutique prices, making veg...

This station's now down to $2.61 for d2. Anyone know of cheaper fuel in SoCal?

I just filled up there for $2.63. Unbelievable, considering other stations charge a dollar more for the same fuel.

VW owns Lambo. And when they stuff a diesel in it -- unheard of in a sports car -- it's a TDI engine.

Perhaps not, LOL -- just caught the error. :rolleyes:
