    Those of us with '09 and newer TDI's who change our own oil- I've been buying Mobil1 ESP from Pep-Boys since they started selling it in early '10, and I've watched the price go from $8.99/Liter to $9.99, and tonight they tried to charge me $11.99 a Liter! The sticker on the shelf at the Rancho/Craig location was still $9.99, so they let me buy out the rest of their inventory at the old price, but he said they would be fixing the sticker asap. Oddly enough, the MB (Mercedes Benz Diesel) Mobil1 Synthetic is still $9.99...
    I know some of you buy your oil online, but I have yet to find an online store that could beat $10/L shipped for the VW507 approved oil for our common rail TDI.
    Also FYI here are some other Pep Boy prices:
    Mk5 cabin HVAC air filter ('09 Jetta): $25
    CBEA common rail TDI oil filter (Purolator): $11.50
    CBEA common rail TDI engine air filter: $25

    Get it from Audi Henderson. Vortex discount is cheaper than pepboys for sure. Better yet I will purchase it and sell to you for a small profit.

    I usually wait for PepBoys to have a sale on Mobil 1 oils and buy all of the ESP they have, but this is another good option. http://forums.tdiclub.com/showpost.p...27&postcount=2
    This is his 10k kit, he also has a 20k kit that includes fuel filter, etc. I buy most of my filters and other misc. parts from him. To see all of his maintenance kits look here: http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=359627 - and click on the pictures to see prices or to order.

    Robert (Fixmy59bug) is the parts manager at Riverside VW in California (and a member here and at TDIClub). He is a nice guy, and a TDI owner, plus his prices are good, and from the LA area standard shipping is pretty much next day to Las Vegas. His website : http://riversidevwparts.com/ is a good place to buy any OEM parts.

    Have Fun!

    When I did ours the pep boys by Arizona Charlie's has it at the $11.99 price, and the pep boys on Lake Mead and Teneya had it for $9.99 but this was right before labor day so they might have gone up as well. Worth a check tho if you're in the area.
