In the USA, is VW currently offering a TDI in any model?
It's a fuel quality issue, burn the older hogher sulfer content fuel and
you mess up the exhaust system. Since that would be a warranty issue they
have been reluctant to bring in the new TDi design until the fuel situation
here has 'settled' down. I think sometime late this spring/summer or at the
beginning of the next model year will see a Jetta TDi.

fundamentalism, fundamentally wrong.


So is that why Diesel is over $4/Gal. out here in California?
Seems they don't want to let anything in that would reduce the cost/mile.
I'm staring to understand how the Europeans feel. It's hard to fathom.
I've got a friend down the road that makes his own biodiesel and his coop
members pay 70cents/gallon? That covers all his equipment expenses too?

You'd think a factory would be even more efficient.
