Update on the TDI. I still love this car. I do mostly highway driving and it is a ball to drive. I have had better repair luck than some who have posted here. I have 60,000 miles now and have only had a couple of minor issues that were covered under warranty at the dealership. There was an EGR leak (under warranty), a glow plug recall and the dealer replaced the glow plug harness as a courtesy at the same time. I broke a seatback latch on the back seat. I repaired it with a $5 part from the dealer. Tires, oil and filters and that's about it.
