wagner Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 Since I did a couple of stories on coal rolling drag strip monsters I became more interested in diesel related stuff. If I had the money I would daily a diesel truck or maybe even *gasp* a VW... With all this new stuff coming to market it really might be the way to go. http://www.dieselarmy.com/news/new-products/clean-diesel-technology-mazdas-skyactiv-d-race-engine/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkas Posted October 29, 2013 Report Share Posted October 29, 2013 the TDI VW engines in the MK3s are really amazing. People are getting well north of 300ft/lbs torque with a simple nozzle/jet kit and a tune. That kind of power in such a small car fucking moves.

cybe Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Can't beat a TDI 6mt daily. You can if you have a DSG. Our VW TDI is excellent. If I could change one thing, it'd be the pushbutton start - but the motor and trans combo is outstanding. There are no awd, manual TDi's in the US.. Which is shit, all we really want is a diesel quattro wagon. The fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We opted not to get the Nav/Kessy package because RCD-510 > nav. But I kind of regret it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Jones Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 You can if you have a DSG. And enjoy not shifting, and taking a 10% fuel economy hit. :dumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRed05 Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 So what are the chances that the A3 sedan diesel will be available in quattro? This is all i've seen so far: The A3 sedan will offer versatile powertrains for a wide variety of entry-luxury customer tastes, including a 1.8 TFSI®, 2.0 TFSI®, 2.0 TDI® clean diesel, and a high-output 2.0 TFSI® offered in the S3. For superior traction and handling the A3 will also offer the legendary Audi quattro® all-wheel drive which distributes power to the wheels that need it most.

cybe Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 0.00% yep, it's just a pretty golf. Is it terrible? We opted not to get the Nav/Kessy package because RCD-510 > nav. i'm not used to it and switch cars frequently, so sometimes i stab it with the key. derp. kessy rocks though, especially w/ armful of shit. we got a 2012 dealer showoff loaded type. still <7000 miles, ~35mpg life of car to date. three chunky-ass vw/audi keys on your keychain does suck though. 10% economy hit wat 2.0L, 140 hp, TDI® Clean Diesel engine, 6-speed manual transmission 30/42 mpg 2.0L, 140 hp, TDI® Clean Diesel engine, 6-speed DSG® automatic with Tiptronic® and Sport mode 30/42 mpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
