x-charset ISO-8859-1Hello all,
Lately I've been hearing rumors of some advanced solar power units being
manufactured inexpensively in China. Does anyone know of an article or a
genuine research source on this?
Thanks in advance,

I would expect to see the first moves from Chrysler, especially now that
they have merged with Mercedes Benz. The Jeep Liberty, for example, will be
available soon with a diesel here in the U.S..
Since most of the recent techno-car-babble revolves around hybrids, and
Toyota has a clear
Exactly, biodiesel will not void your window clip warranty, or the CD player
warranty, but it will void your engine warranty should you make a bad batch
of biodiesel and clog your injectors.

I have an '02 Golf and I know for a fact that using biodiesel in your VW
will void the manufacturer's warranty. Check out www.tdiclub.com for more
information.

With this delay until 2006 (I guess) for the cleaner

I thought it was 2007, so 2006 would be an advance.

On my way to lunch today I heard Paul Harvey mention biodiesel along with
the following points:
Made from ethanol or home-grown soy beans
Better than regular diesel for the motor, injectors, and fuel pump
Lower emmissions
Just thought I'd pass it on!

I agree, there are people on the tdiclub.com reporting over 300,000 miles
with out a hitch in their VWs.
P.S. Diesels will flood the US market once we convert over to ULSD in

VW commits V-10 diesel to U.S.

Automotive News / March 24, 2003
WOLFSBURG, Germany -- Volkswagen AG will introduce its V-10 TDI
direct-injection diesel engine in the United States, VW Chairman Bernd
Pischetsrieder says.
If you don't want to spend $20,000 for a VW you could wait for the Ford
Focus...But as a 2002 Golf TDI owner, it's worth the $20,000 (just get a

Check out www.tdiclub.com if you haven't already, you'll find everything you
need to know about the VWs.
Good Luck!

You'll probably want to relocate the intercooler, I've lost two since last
April by running over tire tread in the road. At $500.00 a piece, I'm
pretty mad they decided to put it 3 inches above the ground. At least maybe
in a Jeep, you might be able to protect it better.

Do yourself a favor and go and get an Upsolute chip. My mileage increased,
