Did some testing today. Had someone drive my car when I was following in another. During the day had very little black smoke. Never noticed any other color really. It wasnt very dark black but then again it wasnt very much smoke at all. At night I had someone follow me as a I held the gears a little longer and they said yeah it looks like a mini version of a school bus. I notice in my rear view smoke at night but nothing during the day. I think its gotta due with light relecting just right. :lol:

anyways im not going to bother looking at it further till I get the money for new parts. HA. no point other wise. I do want new parts.

My father in law has a newer jetta tdi that will probably have to be smogged if they actually start doing that. He said he has property in washington and he will just register his car there cuz hes so far out theres no emissions testing at all. Ha gotta love work arounds. register out of state but still use the car here.

Won't work for trucking fleets. Your wonderful state is going to start requiring any heavy diesel operating in CA to meet CA emissions... :roll:

Tailgaters love it { for maybe 10 seconds

the prophecy of Cali falling off the continent might not have been a physical falling off, but more a mental falling off. :?
