So, they should schedule more TDI engine production in Mexico if they are serious about it. I find it very hard to believe that there are not just minor differences between the gas and the Diesel engines, and they probably outsource their turbos to Garrett or Mitsubishi. What else is different?
Your experience with Diesel sedans piling up on the lot is very different than at my local VW dealer (about three blocks away). When I actually ventured over there to shop for a TDi (insead of my normal visit for Audi parts - LOL), they had NO TDi cars available for a test drive - all sold. They pre-order TDi cars months in advance, then will work with the factory to customize an order that is already in the queue when a customer buys one, six weeks wait. At least they will discount off of list, but not just a few hundred above their invoice.
