Could everyone please stop adding to this thread when you're only saying you've done the survey? Fred knows when a survey has been completed, and it adds nothing to the thread but length. Thanks!

I'll make my comments here.

That said, dieselgate certainly attracted a number of trolls... especially a few months ago. I took a vacation.

You have to rank the choices 1 to 5. The question is a little unclear about this. You cannot mark 2 the same or the previous one goes blank (as you noticed). This confused me for a while too.

Have Fun!

Thanks, got the survey done. Confused me at first since you cannot pick the same twice.

Nice try, but the survey doesn't work for me. I gave up after getting an SSL error for the third time in a row answering question 8.

I was talking to a lady who bought a TDI in July of 2015 outside our recycling depot here in Smithers. Almost a year later, you can take your finger and stroke the inside of the exhaust and you get NOTHING on your finger. NOTHING. No black, no grey. NADA. I told her if anyone ever gives you **** about your 'dirty' diesel, tell them you have a test. And you go first. They will end up with BLACK **** on their finger from whatever car they drive. That Golf = the tailpipe was wickedly clean. And I told her you don't need to make excuses. If they won't lick their black finger, tell them to F off and get a TDI.

I once went from Wisconsin to Kauaii, surely you can come to WI. It's a paradise of a different kind, hey? :) Actually, I took pictures of a dairy farm on Kauaii. That was quite an ironic site....tropical cows.....

Done. I'd probably attend TDIFest if it were closer... but it would have to be REALLY close this year due to the cost of other trips that have been planned for quite a while.

Submitted. I dumped by 2016 TDI Golf Sportwagen for a Subaru Outback. VW had no credibility. The firing of Michael Horn further reinforces my decision to bail from the plane before it crashed. VW obviously cannot fix any of the TDI models simply or without major performance problems or major re-engineering. The lying bastards in Germany perpetrated a fraud on their customers and dealers and can't or don't know how to fix the problem. VW will be as dead as Suzuki in the US market within 3 years. And they will have no one to blame but themselves.

You mean 2015 and not 16 right? AFAIK 2016/GSW are being held at Port. Sure enough Horn is out. They have torpedoes coming from all directions.... Let's hope the ship stays afloat and this issue is fixable.

Done. Love the site but I cannot wait to get rid of the car and never own a VW again.
