Greetings, While I know some of you think that anyone who buys a new car is nuts, some of us just don't have the time to play back yard mechanic. I learned long ago that hiring someone to do the kind of work that needs to be done with an older car means bankruptcy. The old adage of if you want it done right do it yourself is really true of keeping cars running. Building a sustainable farm takes all my time. That said, My Dear Husband would like to know what the opinion of the 2005 Volkswagon Golf TDI is? He is buying me one this Friday and we hope to run biodiesel in it after it is off warranty. Bright Blessings, Kim I have a 2004 golf tdi I really like it. I get 50 mpg on the highway driving kinda hard and usually 38 mpg in the city. I only have 17,000 miles on it but problems yet! Don't wait to put bio diesel in it, that should not void the warranty and if you start using asap you may avoid any fuel filter cloging that sometimes happens when you run the first bio through. _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://wwia.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/biofuel Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Biofuel archives at Infoarchive.net (searchable): http://infoarchive.net/sgroup/biofuel/
