sell it then and get the cummins. TDI's are not good cars to bomb unless you got a lot of money. even if you do its not going to return you with high horespower numbers or fast drag racing times. you can spend ten grand and only get 14 second quarter mile times. it doesnt help these cars are front wheel drive because the toque makes the first gear in these things useless too. i could spend 2000 dollars on my tdi for turbo and programmer and only pick up 75-100 horsepower

I have a 06 Jetta TDI the milage is great and it is ok to drive but after 60+ inches of snow so far and another winter storm warning for the next 2 days. You can't drive the thing Anyways I changed the oil on my pickup and the car at the same time this fall the car got just about 3000 miles and my truck 14,000. I want to trade the jetta when the 2010 Ram HD comes out.
The 06 Ram will be kept

So what are the details on your TDI? How much do you want for it?
I have a 2001 TDI New Beetle Automatic. Has 150,00 miles on it I am going to give it to my daughter when she gets her license so I will be looking for a new one.
Love my 2007 DuraMax but only dirve it 1 or 2 a week.
