Re: [Peugeot-L] Off Topic - buying new daily driver...

Hi Group,

No offense intended to anyone especially Ben!

Before anyone buys or recommends a VW TDI, I would suggest some serious research into the problems that they have been having.....there are several.

One of the more serious is that they are prone to clogging up the intake to the extent that the air flow and power are significantly reduced.

The Air Mass Meters are a pattern failure on several VW models including the TDI's. So much so that the VW dealers are selling them for $50 to $75.

Interestingly, if you order one for a TDI you will be quoted about $400. However, if you order one for a gas model (same part number) it will be $50 to $75!!!
