Hi guys, I have been having a tough time finding the one shot bottle of standyne diesel additive in and around toronto. I used to buy them at the dealer on Avenue road but they now have become an audi dealer and don't stock. The two vw dealers I have gone to (Don Valley and the one downtown)...

Hi Guys, When driving back in the snow storm on Thursday, inching my way across the Gardiner and Don Valley Parkway, most of the time on first gear. After almost four hours I smelled a burning smell coming from the vents and actually saw a bit of smoke. I checked the engine temperature it was...

Hi, I am headed to GeorgeTown VW for my first oil change on Tuesday. I heard/read before there is some confusion (even by dealers) on what oil to put in on a Jetta 2006. Can someone please tell me what oil should be used for my car? I don't need any screw ups.

I drove from Toronto to Washington with my family, spent 4 days in Washigton. The plan was to head out to the Fest this morning. Woke up, saw areas south of Washigton flooded out, thought we might get caught in the storm, headed back to Toronto. I jsut arrived and I am totally bummed out. I...

Hi, I have 6900Km on my 2006 Jetta TDI and I am going to the TDI Fest and will probably be putting from 2000-2500 Km on my way there and back. When I went to book my oil change today, the dealer said it is not good to do the first oil change early because a special oil is put in at the...

Last night I must have forgotten to lock up my car (2006 Jetta) :mad:, someone went thru it and stole my rearview mirror, took the mirror but the plastic part glued to the window is still there. Can I get that part just at the delaer? Anywhere else?

I am picking up my new Jetta TDi, when it comes in, and I am thinking of getting Ziebart to apply their Diamond gloss product. http://www.ziebarttoronto.com/exterior.htm Anyone has this on their cars? Is it worth the $399? Your opinions please.

I was driving by the VW stealership at Davenport and AVenue Road and I saw a White GTI. Looks good, but I still prefer the look of a Jetta.

Hi, I am thinking of coming to the TDI Fest 2006. I am 44 years old and I am thinking of bringing my wife and kids as part of our vacation. Am I too old for this? You think it will be fun for the wife and kids? (They will probably spend much of the time at the mall anyways :D) Basically, I...

Hi, I have being reading how the diesel pumps for trucks do not fit our car. Can one go to a truck diesel pump fill a fuel flask and the fill the car from the flask? Is this possible? I guess the problem may be the fuel comes at such a quick rate that it would never make to the inside of fuel...

I am about to purchase a 2006 Jetta TDI, and I am little confused. When I go to the VW web site I see that the leatherette is available in Anthracite or beige. Anthracite looks black on the site but when I was at the dealer I could have sworn that the seats where grey. So is Anthracite grey...
