What does the red I mean on TDI? Always wondered how different colours on the badges mean different things on VWs

Red 'I' means it's a GT TDI.

Nice and subtle

* you're walking along and you admire from a distance how sexy this car looks, then you realise it's yours

I parked the car today after I got back from lunch and was walking down the path back into work. I couldn't help but look back at the car admiringly where it was parked, I must have been looking at it for 10 seconds not realising where I was walking, and I nearly came into contact with a tree.


I was in a VW gaze.
Vooolkswaaagen.

When people continously tell you "One of your reverse lights are out"...

haha. good call...i have only had about one thousand people tell me that.

or...when you lock your car and your're about to walk away and someone stops to tell you that you left your car lights on...only to have them switch off automatically 1 sec after making them look a tad stupid. kind people, but stupid.

or...when you're at a stop sign on a somewhat steep incline, and its raining, you put your foot down ever so slightly and the GTI has no traction.

[Alfy]

when you constantly go outside to look at it, for no reason whatsoever... my dilemma

and the missuz goes "what is wrong with you, it's not going anywhere!"

LOL she will never understand............

TDI badges have their own secret codes too. The general principle is the more red letters the more powerful the engine. So a car with silver TD and a red I is more powerful than the same model car with all silver TDI badge, but one with all red TDI is more powerful again (guess what colours the letters of my TDI are ? )

You know your driving a VW when people ask you how to open the boot.
