Never thought I would... Another '12 TDI

[mimalmo]

Wow, that's better than I thought it would be. I need to get another DD. I've been going back and forth, trying to decide if I want to buy a Cherokee Classic, an older diesel car or something basic like a an old Jetta, Honda, etc.

The OP's TDI would be perfect but, I don't want to be stuck with payments for years & years.

Let me know when you're interested in that 300ft-lbs, I'll be tuning a DPF delete car in a week or so
You don't need to delete the DPF to run a Stage 2, its for the extra mileage as well as other things

Your real MPG you claim, is that tank mileage or your estimate of highway mileage?

Have you considered a small drop with some stiffer springs?

Calculated tank. The few times I've gotten 48 are pretty much ideal conditions. Flat, 55mph roads, no cargo. I don't drive it easy though. Usually 5-10 over, and not shy to pass. Otherwise my usual fill up is around 42. Seen down to 36 depending on the week. My standard commute is 7 miles, but I do a lot other highway driving. So my mileage has a pretty steep swing. A couple of these 40 degree mornings, it barely hit 190 temp before I got to work!

I'd love to have some drop, but the ball height for towing is already really low. I'd prefer quick adjust air helper springs. Also those are only $80 if I can find a set in stock.

He consistently gets better mileage then my Cherokee. I think 23-25 avg highway.

24 was always tops, and that is on similar conditions to above. Most of the time my average was around 18-20.

Ha, not low enough until you have to back up onto 2x4's and still have difficulty reaching the tongue of the trailer

Bought a new 2013 jetta tdi 6 speed in november of 2012. White with black interior. No complaints. Like to hear of the turbo kits but i'm not sure I need more power. This jetta is quick.
