I would love to put a TDI enging in my '71 Westfalia bus... that would be sweeet!!!
i agree with nebe. we are on our 6th VW (2005 passat wagon), and it will be our last.

I said that before, but this time i mean it. so many issues. both cosmetic like nebe says, and also mechanical.

Don't have anything like these issues with my F150 (90K miles), or my focus (sold with almost 200K miles), and all friends & family with toyota, honda, or others don't have all of these issues.

i'm sure the TDI is awesome and the VW lover inside me wants one so bad, but i am done with this torture... Our next purchase (probably within the next 6 months) will not be VW.

i bent my wookie
