Hi there,

As my inaugural post, I would like to introduce myself and my new (to me at least) car, a 2008 TDI Jetta, 90KKms, DSG. I purchased the car from the original lady owner in Canberra, which is where the car has spent its life putting around town. To say the car is clogged up would be an understatement. I have driven the car back to Adelaide in limp mode - cruises at highway speed no problems, but struggles with hills.
Myself, I am an engineer, but have little automotive background or understanding, but am very keen to learn. In particular, all things dpf and egr. Aside from the sluggish performance (for now), I really enjoy driving the car, and can see the attraction for these cars / VW community.
Anyway, hope to engage with you all, and whilst I may not be able to offer a lot from an automotive perspective, am happy to contribute from an electronic eng perspective if needed.

Finally, this is my first forum, so if I muddle any etiquette, please feel free to let me know.

Cheers,
Andrew
