mf40-man, I am glad you like your deisel but there is no free lunch. Diesels cost more and weigh more and usually are much more expensive to fix. Every 40,000 miles when you change the timing belt and tensioners on that tdi of yours it will cost you enough to have sent a similiar sized gas car about 12500 miles down the road. And good luck finding that required 0W-20 synthetic oil at anything like a reasonable cost. I am not sure where VW diesels aren't avaliable but you can buy them in California, a mistake I will never make again. I'll stick with gas cars with timing chains, thank you, but I am glad you like your diesel. Please report back at 200,000 miles and let us know how it went.
