Re: Passat TDI: Block heaters and low kinematic viscosity low ash oil?

Oil needs something meeting VW 507.00, so far everything is 5w-30. Aside from what the dealer sells (not sure on the brand but they seemed to use Castrol before), you can get Mobil ESP 5w-30 at Pep...

Re: Think all diesel SUVs cost extra? Not this one

Re: Road Trip: Winnipeg to Toronto

Re: ‘We Could Be In For A Cooling Period That Lasts 200-250 Years’

Global warming is a scam because politicians use it as a way to tax people? Not sure how what politicians tax affects whether science is valid or not.
