First, I looked at the FAQ. I understand warm up time is an issue with TDI's but my question is in regards to the MK4 Golf.
I used to have a 98 Jetta TDI and a big reason I got rid of it was because of a long warm up time (there were other issues with the car as well though). My commute is 4 miles all city (Chicago). On those sub-zero blizzard days I could get stuck in traffic for 45 minutes with effectively no heat. Was this improved with this generation TDI? I miss the great city mpg, hate hybrids, and love hatchbacks.
