Here is the way my 06 TDI sounds when you turn off the engine. When you turn the key off, the anti-shudder valve closes - blocking all air into the engine. After the engine stops, the valve opens and a whoosh of air pressure escapes.

  • Although this car is badass..do not hate on the prius because the prius still gets better gas mileage. Nickel metal hydride batteries are good for the environment, plus the prius has cool features like regenerative braking, and solar panel on the top of car that helps charge battery. Not that I own a Prius or anything. I only get 18 miles to the gallon with my 4.9 liter 300 cid inline 6 ford truck.

  • @adamackels It all depends on how long you expect to keep your vehicle. Diesels offer a better return on your investment in the long run. As far as 42 mpg? That's doubtful. With most people driving 75 on interstates there is no way it will achieve those numbers...Maybe if you slowed it down to 60. I don't ever listen to the car companies when they advertise mpg. I have a 06 TDI rated at 35/42...I average 40 city and 52 on the highway at 70 mph

  • I love the smell of diesel in the morning

  • @heatherandpaul2 You are awesome, my new internet friend.

  • Hello Grey,

    the video about when they turn the engine off but he is fantastic and very useful driver i love the man turn his engine off he is a very good driver i love it.

    and can you send me my comments message tomorrow morning at 10 am.

    thank you! see you tomorrow. good night from Lucy Skuce.

  • @Evansdotcom I don't remember mentioning the prius..? I did say the Chevy Cruze though. Take yourself and your $4000 battery from YOUR pruis, and take your rude-ass comment somewhere else.

  • @adamackels HAHAHA. yes lets talk about maintenance. How much does a new battery cost for one of those priuses. How about $4000? Lawl thats a whole new engine for this car, gtfo and learn before you talk you fucking moron.

  • @adamackels What the fuck are you talking about. Diesels suck!. Its expensive and not a efficient as gas. Thats why I dont buy gas! VW sucks! Thats why Im getting a Jetta. Moron. My cars run on biofuels

  • @heatherandpaul2 Fucking moron huh? look at the new chevy cruze, non hybrid, and getting 42MPG.. double the gas milage huh, so your speaking (42x2) which is 84MPG? I don't think so, not only that, but the maintance cost is higher. I want to see you get a key for these VW's when you have no available, another joke indeed. They (VW) does know how to make a good diesel, but compared to the new gas 4 cylinder cars, it seems like a waste of money.
