There are no specification differences between summer/winter oils for the TDI. The viscosity for the VW 507.00 specification is 0w30. I still run the 03 TDI specification oils and the viscosity is 5w40. |

Just heard back from my dealer in N.E. PA. The wagon I special-ordered in July may not make it next month (November). It looks more likely to arrive in December. Does anybody know what's delaying deliveries? Is there a problem in the production line? Where are they making them these days? Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. |

Personally, I waited 3 months before I found out my "order" was sent to another dealership and sold. (I found out on the internet that the VIN my dealer gave me was sold in another state... I had to CONFRONT the salesman before they would admit it) Ask your salesman to sit with you as they log into their internal VW delivery schedules and show you what is coming. They should have "visiability" to all vehicles on ships intransit to USA and what dealerships they are destined to be deliverd to. If they cannot do that simple task.. then your salesman may not be telling you the entire story. If you want to "order" a specific vehicle which will be built to your specifications... get a Dodge! My Dodge truck was deliverd within 4 weeks exactly as I orderd it. The window sticker said "This truck built for Bruce A. Peebles" right off the assembly line.
