Thanks, I used Delvac 1300 in my Dmax for probably 98% of its life aside from a few changes with Delo 400. Always preferred using Mobil oils.
Where do you guys get your oil from? None of the truck service centers or truck stops around here carry it. I ended up finding it at a wholesale...
I've seen a couple of UOAs with Delvac 1 in TDIs and they have been excellent.
This oil doesn't meet the VW specs for use in the CR engines because the sulfated ash (1.0%) is greater than the 0.6% in the VW spec and it's heavier instead of their 5w30. I highly doubt that small difference is...
FYI- Gibson doesn't show the Dual Sport as being available for your 06.

Here are the installation instructions for that system on an 01-05 which may better show you what you're up against...
The info from Gibson is contradictory. It says that it is a turbo back system, but that it bolts to the converter which usually means it's just a cat back system since the front pipe and cat are all one piece. I've also read where the tubing used for that system is 3.5 which is the same size as...
Suh-weet! Have fun with it. Some of the best deals on MX bikes I ever got were new leftover models. They would always knock off freight + setup and give a good discount on the MSRP.
I remember back in the early 2000's, Polaris made a diesel utility quad that sounded like an engine running with...
I can't remember if it's a rubber hose running to the turbo or not... relatively certain it isn't. You can see it down in the valley once you unplug the big bale connector and take the turbo inlet off. There's a pipe that runs back from the metal pipe where the rad hose connects coming off the...
Once you get used to where they make power, there are certain speeds where you can lay into it and it will pull like hell. Feels completely un-natural for such a big vehicle.
Heat pump with 7.5kw backup. The heat pump doesn't do very much other than run continuously once the temp drops below 50.
I haven't run the aux heat yet... don't even want to think about what that will do the electric bill.
Delivery date: December 23rd.
Merry X-Mas to me.
I've been riding the CX bike a lot lately. Went out with a friend for 2 hours on the road last Sat... on the way back, we passed a MTB park where I ran across some people I know from the team and I did another 2.5 hours in the woods with them...
