Diesels have catalytic converters now too.

I will be traveling from early until late tomorrow, but I just have to have
input on this matter ASAP!

I'm looking at a mailer that Chevrolet sent me advertising a Chevy Cruze
Clean Turbo Diesel, and the brochure compares it favorably (of course) with
a VW TDI.

But here's the part that gets me:

In the section that explains Chevy's 2-Year Schedule Maintenance Program,
there's this entry under the "free" category:

"Diesel Exhaust Fluid Refills"

Huh? Is this to be filed with Johnson Rods and Overhead Muffler Bearing
pranks? What is a "Diesel Exhaust Fluid Refill," and what exactly is Diesel
Exhaust Fluid?

Anxious to find out what my Diesel Westy is missing,

Jim

PS What a Vanagon conversion this Chevy engine would make if it is any good!
I have heard nothing but good from people I know who have driven them.
