Diesels are very efficent at idle?
I remember someone in the TDI fuel economy forum (tdiclub.com) telling me that when their diesels idle its way more efficent than a gasoline engine like mine idling in N. If that's the case, for a 1.7 liter like mine fully warmed up I waste around .8 liters (.21 gallons)/ hour. I wonder if their idling is much lower then it wouldn't make much sense to idle with no engine off if its really that efficent.
Damn not enough TDI'er trying to prove this theory!
