Review: 2009 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen SE {Autoblog}
Jul 31st 2008 2:24PM Yea, I also have '02, 525 5-spd w/ sport and premuim package... pretty rare car. It has some miles on it and has recently been having typical BMW issues.
I wish I've bought an E46 as it's not much smaller inside but easier to drive for my wife.
26 mixed city and a little under 30mpg on highway. RWD, nice and balanced handling FTW.

Clarkson considers the MINI Clubman "a toilet" {Autoblog}
Dec 26th 2007 4:38PM I don't get the Mini Clubman. If I wanted a car that is bigger than the Mini, I would buy a car that's bigger than the Mini, not a bigger Mini.

LA 2007: Chevy Tahoe Two-Mode Hybrid wins 2007 Green Car of the Year {Autoblog}
Nov 15th 2007 12:51PM "GM Hybrid SUV for its innovation in demonstrating that a vehicle with lots of people and cargo hauling capability could still offer fuel economy equivalent to that of a much smaller four-cylinder sedan"
This is a joke, right?
The gas mileage still sucks, it gets nothing close to 30mpg (highway) of an avg 4-cyl accord/camry/malibu and is still a bigger vehicle than most people need. (Those that actually use it for towing are excluded).
BMW recalling 5 and 6-series, X5s due to stalling {Autoblog}
Nov 15th 2007 9:39AM Dang it... I have a similar issue in my '01 325i 5-spd... but it's not stalling. In cold/dry conditions, while say coming to a stop, the rpms drop to about 400rpm... and the jump back up to 1000rpm and go back forth a little bit.
I've clean the idle control valve, replaced cam sensors (for other reasons, but was hoping that was would cure it).
Can anyone advise? Engine block to chassis cable... maybe 4-gauge? Hoping for the best here, expecting nothing, I have learned to live with it.
