[Vwdiesel] New TDIs...common rail injection

[jon]

I was just chatting with the fellow at the local VW shop (not the dealer)
about TDIs. This has probably already been discussed to death, but he told
me the newer (past year or so) TDIs have common rail injection, with
pressure around 20K PSI. Wow!

Build an injector tester for that pressure! ;-)

He also told me VW has had all sorts of problems with that new TDI engine
design.

Comments?
(If I remember correctly, the "new" Mercedes diesels are also common rail.
Correct?)
