And one thing you should know about ALL VW common rail diesels, is that they take a very specific VW507.00 motor oil that has to be LL03 Specification, as in 30,000 km rated motor oil, that is very, very, very hard to find, outside of dealerships and ordering it on line.
Ouch this stuff isn't cheap and at 9 qts yet....probably needs a special filter with a special media element coated with unobtainium...
There's a thread running about GM limiting repair options in an effort to protect their proprietary software....VW has gone one better, spec an engine oil that you can only buy at the dealer!
My friend's Tourag is the gas engine not the TDI.
