My 00 Jetta TDI bombed on me again

[B5]

WTF has anything with the hot weather doing with my car eh? I had my car parked outdoor today. On my way home this afternoon the car started fine. Weird things came up after jammed a bit in the slow moving downtown traffic. My engine idles @ 1200 RPM. The RPM supposed to see is 900 RPM. WTF going on there? I did a complete scan with VAG-COM and nothing found.

The car definitely wants a new owner besides me. By now I was ready to get a tow hook and drag it to a Honda Dealer to trade it in for a Accord.

Mine's been chugging a bit rough the last couple of days too. I was wondering if it was having problems switching to summer gas? I threw 10litres of biodiesel in this morning and within 5 minutes it was purring like a horny cat.

My last jetta had a bunch of problems, I think sometimes that there is cars out there that are problem prone.

Hay thanks. Can you tell me where to get BioDiesel?

I think I’m just one unlucky mo-fo.

i love that line ....if it don't smoke it's a joke...

bio-diesel in alberta will be hard to find,because as the temperature gets
below 0 degree's it starts to gel so AB is not an ideal location for distribution.

Re: My 00 Jetta TDI bombed on me again

I make my own biodiesel. In the winter I only use a 20% blend then I dont have to worry about gelling, right now I'm on about 50%.

And the back end of my car smells like tempura, yum yum!
