Thanks ... never heard before... I have been using RedLine many years ago, when diesel still had high sulphur in my 240D....
 
85 Plus (RedLine)
Designed for use in all diesel engines. Contains extremely powerful lubricants, detergents, seal conditioners, fuel stabilizers and rust preventatives, but without smoke suppressant
 Red Line 85 Plus contains additional cetane improvers which boost the fuel 5-9 cetane numbers and additional lubricants which reduce wear in low sulfur fuel by 75%.
 
This improvement in lubricity and cetane will reduce detonation, assist starting, help reduce smoking, help prevent fuel system wear and leakage and can provide 5% additional power and efficiency.
 
This diesel fuel additive complies with the federal low sulfur content requirements for use in diesel motor vehicles and nonroad engines.

Nothing in a can can do that I'm afraid. Such claims are spurious IMO.

RedLine is good stuff also. Several guys at work have diesels and they swear by diesel power service. I bought a jug of it today and I am going to try it. Can't hurt.

Kris,
 
I just purchased a 2009 Jetta TDI DSG and did opt for the dealer offered 84 mo / 75k mi warranty for about $1250 with $0/$100 deductible. I checked online prior to making this deal and could not beat it online... I know that you can get 84 mo / 100k mi as well for very little more... Good luck and post your deal when you buy!

Hey,
 
Let us know what you think of Diesel Power Service. Is it worth the price / trouble?

In my opinion, extra warranty is an overkill. Generally speaking it is just plain additional profit at F&I at any dealership. I would never recommend to anyone to opt for that coverage no matter how good it may sound!

By the way, you can always cancel the extended warranty and get a full refund (within 30 to 60 days, depending on the dealership).

I got an 84/60/100 for $1,000. I don't put a lot of miles on a year. If nothing else it gives me peace of mind for the next 7 years.

Another change from 09 to 2010 model is timing belt to timing "chain" on 2010 TDI 2.0 Jetta, as well as on new 2010 Golf.
