I get nervous advising anything to this OP for he does not even list a diesel in his sig. His username is 2011VR6NJ. That there does not signify he even has a diesel.

I'm with Yeti. First thing I noticed. Guy clearly lists VR6.....

As for fuel gelling, I've had diesel gel on my before (never in a Touareg though). My experience was always a lot of whiteish smoky exhaust and a stumbly / bumbly idle. That was before DPF's though. Back then (this was a 1980 Dasher Diesel), a little kerosene in the fuel tank and it was good to go. Now - I don't think I'd do that to a Touareg.

I hope I never have to deal with it. Made it through a couple of really cold nights so far this winter (-15F or so) and fired up fine.

But to the OP - I'd make sure you have a TDI.
