[Vwdiesel] Been a while

Still here, but also have seen no posts in a very long time.

Took Mamma's '03 Jetta Variant off the street this fall - tailgate is rusted and going to newer turbo installation with larger SMIC and billet compressor.  Also, with 340,000 kms. will go through suspension and everything else when it can come into the shop for tailgate and front fenders (rust there too).

Started to get panicky about VW screwing up the diesel world so badly, so spent a month looking for the lowest mileage '14 or '15 Q7 I could find in Western Canada.  Also wanted one without much of the electronic junk that will be impossible to support in 10 or 15 years.  Found a '15 with under 60k kms and absolutely as new plus a set of forged 18" Audi wheels and Pirelli studless winters came with it.  it is a post emission fix car, so will leave it alone while the extended warranty is in effect.  It is a very different car/trruck, great tow potential, good cargo space.

Just wanted to know if this list is still operating. I know Loren was screening all the posts but I haven’t gotten anything in a while. I am in the middle of a TDI swap into an 82 air-cooled Vanagon. I have been in touch a bit with David Cook and he has helped me a bit. Just wanted to know if anyone else is still out there. Hayden
