    Block heater for MkVII?

    I was just curious- I read somewhere that Canadian MkVII Golfs come with a block heater.... does anybody know if we can source that part in the States? I'd like to plug mine in as I do not have a garage and have been experiencing some hard starts lately (may take it to dealer if it happens...

    Massachusetts- flynn's truck plaza

    Anybody in MA buy diesel from Flynns? It's right down the road from me, and it's a truck stop with high turnover. I've just been afraid as I've heard from people in town that they water down their gasoline. They're consistently lower in price as they are a wholesaler as well, so I thought I'd...

    Just had 10k oil change, now a question.

    Hey there, I just had my 10k oil change on the golf. Castrol turbo diesel oil was used (I have a great service dept at the dealer), but I have a question. The tech put the sticker on my windshield stating to change the ol at 15k, was it tech error, or should I adhere to 5k ntervals from now n...

    B100 as an additive in petrodiesel

    I found a place that offers B100 in 5 gallon jugs in western ma. I've seen some forums discussing it, and I'm wondering if it is okay to use say 1/2-1gal in a tank of regular diesel as an additive. Thanks! And if I missed a thread n the search, sorry!

    Bostonians- Burke B5?

    (figured I'd post this in the right forum) How is the b5 at Dennis K Burke in Chelsea? Is it worth a fill up if I'm in the area? I'd like to run b5 but being in Shrewsbury, there's really nothing local. How is the mileage? Thanks!

    Looking for a source... GTI rear exhaust

    I'm looking to do the GTI style dual exhaust and was wondering if anybody has a source for oem unit at a good price. I'm basically doing it for looks only so a rear muffler with dual outlets would suffice. Thanks!

    Cooling down the turbo... Necessary?

    So I had a discussion with one of the mechanics at work, who said I should be letting my car idle for 1-2 minutes after driving to let the turbo cool down and despool. I do it on my work vehicle (2011 Trackless MT6 tractor w/ cummins turbodiesel) and am wondering if it's really necessary on the TDI.

    S5 Style Projector headlights

    Anybody have experience with these: http://www.tmtuning.com/HOME/catalog/product_detail.php?default_product=2703 They aren't HID, but look pretty cool and are allegedly brighter than stock halogens. Just wounding if they're total crap? Thanks!

    New to the Forum!

    Hey guys (and gals), I've been lurking on here since last April when I purchased my 2011 Golf TDI 4dr with DSG, and decided to join up! I absolutely love the car and what an upgrade from my '07 Jetta 2.5 (although I did really enjoy that car also!) So far I haven't done any mods, I'm somewhat...
