I stopped in at the Advance Auto near my home to check on some parts for my Golf. It began with the usual question by the staff: year, make, model of my car. I described my Golf. The guy began with "don't you mean GTI". I said 'no, TDI'. He assured me that the Golf doesn't have a diesel in it, that VW didn't put a diesel in the Golf. I said it does, it is sitting outside your store. Then he went down the line of ideas: "Did you import it from Europe?", No, I didn't, but I hear the Germans designed it. "Somebody must have taken the diesel engine out of a Jetta and put it in your car", NO, they didn't. "are you sure it is a Golf?" Yes, I am. He showed me on his computer screen there is a Golf GTI. I said, "yes, but click on the one above it that just says "Golf". Now, look at the 1.9 L diesel......''What do you know, it is a TDI". Yes. Yes it is.......
