CARBON BUILD-UP IS ANOTHER PROBLEM YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH IF YOU GO ELECTRIC!

I bought my 5 year old VW Tiguan ("Tiguano') in 2018, a Double Lease Return from the Dealer with but 45.1K miles on her. I bent the poor dealer over backwards because they were desperate to sell the car before LOT FEES from the Bank kicked in (FYI, O-N-L-Y buy a used car or truck Boxer Day (26DEC20xx-04JAN20xx because MGT needs the money and people rarely have money during the NYE holidays.

I drove the car 48K miles during the four years I owned her and I never repaired anything but worn out parts (Brake Pads/Rotors/Wipers/ Tires/Oil Changes & Filters). From 04JAN2023-04JUL2023, I've had to drop about $1,500.00 in six months once the old girl approached 100K miles. According to the Automotive CheapSkate's website, one should allocate $763.00 per year on repairs A-F-T-E-R 100K miles which is fairly generous. Hondas 2013 Civic CRX averages $365.00 year in repairs and Toyota RAV4 averages $450.00 year in repairs, however, neither Honda or Toyota are as fun to drive as my little 2013 Tiggie S!!!

CARBON BUILD-UP is indicative of VW's Direct Injection TSI 2.0L 4 Cylinder Turbo design because fuel is injected BEFORE the Valves as opposed to in them. What this means it that you will have to CHISEL/WALNUT SHELL BLAST to Intake Manifold and associated parts to get all of that 'GUNK' out of it. Don't even THINK of pouring liquid wrenches into yer engine as n-o-n-e of that stuff works. Find a good mechanic or Engine/Machine Shop that has a walnut shell blaster and sufficient elbow grease to chisel it out right.

Once your car hits 120K miles, you need to pitch the b*tch & go electric. And why is that? You will need to de-carbonize your engine every 30-45K miles after 100K [I put 287K miles on my flawless Mazda Maita 1991 N/A before a woman Drunk crushed her to smithereens. When my car became 'infected', all of the gauges (TAC/SPEDO/Media) started dancing around and power because anemic.

I am so jealous of my Attorney's Tesla Model 3 that it is not funny. He goes 200 miles (single motor) at $9.00 SuperCharger one hour. or $50.00 for 1,000 miles. As of today's date, it costs me $70.00 @ 200 miles or $350.00 for the same 1,000 miles and that does not include Oil Change/Filter, Brake Fluid, P/S Fluid, Engine Air Filter, Bi-Yearly Smogging, etc. once the odometer hits 6.5K miles. Fossil Fuel Internal Combustion Engines are bad for the environment & are too expensive to own/Operate...
