Replying to: elias (Jul 02, 2009 7:58 am)  75% RPMS or 3,825 rpms (of 5,100 redline) that would accomplish the goals. (sorry to hear about the $2k chain driven oil pump issue). |

I have just taken delivery on a new 2009 Platinum Gray TDI sedan and was reading over the owner's manual which shows four tie down locations in the trunk. My car has two in the back but none up toward the back seat as in the manual photograph. Is this normal for new TDIs or did mine miss out on something that is supposed to be there?

Replying to: tdifun (Jun 18, 2009 1:53 pm) I can never get the keys from the wife, as she drives it to work most of the time. |

Replying to: tdifun (Jul 02, 2009 1:27 pm) Tell me your not using "Gas". I must assume you are using "diesel" or your car would not be running. I know it's a tough habit to break, but after getting our TDI, I have had to make sure when talking to the wife I use the word diesel or fuel, never "gas" or I might end up with a tank full of it. |

Have a 2001 with 304,000 km. Always loved this car. I have maintained it faithfully. At the moment, I am about 60% through the life of my 2nd replacement timing belt. Use 5/8 of an once of Raycor Cetane booster every fill. What I have noticed recently is a loss of power when I reach the 2800 RPM band. More noticeable up hills. Interestingly enough, I am not getting any warning from the MIL or any other lamp on the dash. I know they are working as they light up on engine start as perscribed. This sort of thing happened at just over 100,000 km a few years ago and was told it was my mass air flow sensor (but I did get a MIL warning on my dash when this happened). That was replaced under the emission warranty. Usually, anytime something is wrong, some lamp would tell me so on the dash. Not his time. Due for an oil change next week - I'll ask the mechanic - just wondering if anyone has had a similar problem? I plan to run this car to 500,000 - I enjoy driving it very much.
