Is this a crock, or is rapeseed BD superior, from a mechanical standpoint, to soybean BD?
-----Original Message----- Thank you for visiting the Volkswagen Web site. We appreciate your inquiry on Volkswagen's position on using biodiesel fuel. B100 stands for 100% biodiesel. It is a diesel fuel derived from biomass feedstock such as soybeans. It can be blended with regular diesel fuel (B20 = 20% biodiesel/80% regular diesel, for example). In Europe our diesel engines are certified to operate any blend of the biodiesel that is available in Europe. European biodiesel is different than biodiesel in the U.S. since it is produced from different feedstock (the rapeseed plant versus the soy plant). Our parent company does not agree with the specifications for biodiesel in the U.S. and does not recommend its use in any percentage. Using biodiesel will invalidate our warranty. If you have any further questions or concerns, please contact Volkswagen Customer Care at 800-822-8987. Thank you for your submission. Dani Volktalk -----Original Message----- Comments : Hi, I own a 00 Jetta TDI and I have a question about VWoA's attitude about the use of Bio-Diesel or any of its blends, and the honoring of any warranty work done on a car that uses Bio-Diesel... I would like to start using Bio-Diesel, but not if it voids my warranty Thank You [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Biofuels list archives: http://archive.nnytech.net/ Please do NOT send "unsubscribe" messages to the list address.
