that is a confusing statement. are you telling him not to EOC in gear? i should hope he doesn't do that already.
are you also saying the TDI will go into DFCO, in gear, coming to a stop, with the engine running and be better at saving/using less fuel than EOC? hhhmmmmm. either i am confused about all this or i'm doing something wrong. i get 60 consistently each fill up and i EOC all the time. should i leave it on, coast in gear, idle at the light and save more?
