    I know some of you guys use this, so I thought you would be interested in knowing www.tdiparts.com is having a sale on Excellium NF 5 liter bottles. I got 2 for right around 55 before shipping.

    idk. you might wanna also check autohausaz.com. they have them too, its a little more expensive, but if you spend $50, you get free shipping. might end up being the same after its all said and done.

    Actually, you guys are the most expensive out of all the ones listed so far.

    I'm about to buy 4 5L jugs shipped to me at 02139

    TDIparts = 126.58 shipped ($15 shipping).
    autohausaz = 133.48 shipped ($0 shipping).
    PureMS = 143.14 shipped ($40 shipping).

    I do my homework before I buy, TDIparts looks like a good deal to me if you use this oil.

    Have you had good luck with TDiparts? I have tried to order twice and they never shipped my order. I ended up going else where. I wonder if i just caught them on bad days or if anyone else has had trouble? tdiparts sure is closer for us here in new england. but i have always have good luck with mike at purems.

    Re: Elf Oil

    can you beat germanfilters.com?

    let's do a price comparison for 6 quarts of elf (pick the min quality level) and mann 940/25

    germanfilters.com does no tax and no shipping so factor that in.

    Re: Elf Oil

    I've never used tdiparts.com before, but a friend of mine (who coincidentally has a TDI) has and recommended them to me. He has ordered several things from them without problems.

    For the MA guys, I saw they have a local pickup option too, but you would have to live close enough to make it worth your while.

    IF you did your homework you would know that purems sells "ELF EXCELLIUM FULL-TECH" (the 0W-30 one) at $7.25 per liter, while TDIparts sells it at $9.00 per liter..

    make sure you're comparing apples to apples
