Wow... these words strung loosely together by you are not saying
anything to me, I have to read them... But to answer your question,
no I don't read newspapers or car magazines. Well I will look at the
head lines as I walk by & if it really interests me I'll look that
story up on-line. I did read a copy of Rolling Stone cover to cover
the other day (just to see if I could).
As a matter of fact I check out 3 or 4 new sources on line most every
day and none of them mention the DEF I see at the truck stop for
$2.79 a gallon.
If I needed DEF I'm sure I'd have heard about it, or I would have
asked a email list of knowledgeable people what it was... my guess
was diesel exhaust fluid and I don't have a diesel right now...

There are no dumb questions.

I'm willing to bet if your VW needs DEF you are aware of it, maybe
not if someone else installed the diesel in your Vanagon (vanagon
content) but you could always go to the TDI-conversion list & ask
them.  ( http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/TDI-conversion/info )
