Hey everyone. I never thought i would do such a thing. The tank was almost empty and I was stuck in traffic I got off at the first exit I could and gased up. With gasoline to the top. I started my tdi and drove about 500 meters then car stalled. What should I do. Is my tdi done ?

If it's a MK4 (going off of your avatar box with info it shows 2005) I think you might be able to get away with it. Drain tank, dump fuel filter canister, replace filter and say a prayer! If it had of been a MK6, I don't think there is any coming back from that without replacing HPFP.

I'll let some others, smarter than I that have dealt with this chime in but I'm sure you'll get a good answer from folks around here.

Good luck!
