Hi fellow Vdub crew!!

I recently brought my first VW Golf GT TDi 115BHP at 80k (2000 reg), (cost a fair bit but a great upgrade from my 100bhp VW Polo!!!!) the car has full service history and only one owner, so consider myself lucky to be able to grab this beauty.

I'm new to both this forum and diesel cars so i need all the advice possible please!!!

The car is great, only had it 1 week, due in for a service and all round check up from VW specialist. Car is a 6 speed and most comfortable drive i have ever experienced!! was doing very high speed on motorway and the car was luxorious not a sound of trouble!!

However :-( i couln't feel the thrust of a GT TDI when i was putting my foot down on the acceleration?? couldn't get that torque feeling?? no power?? any ideas what this could be?? could it be the Turbo?? how much do they cost to replace??

I read somewhere that with diesel cars, especiall PD models they need their oil changing regualrly? something like every 7,000 miles?? is this true? what oil is this referring to??

I would be very grateful if anyone could help, i hope i don't sound ignorant with my lack of knowledge of VW but i have never owned a diesel before so just a little cautious at mo.

Thanks!!!!!
