Best way to stop diesel clinging to the car

Seconded, what is that?
Golf GT & A4 Avant
is it waxed or sealed with anything? a good layer of protection will help to limit the build up, but nothing will stop it. will make it easier to clean.

As @Yellow Dave has said, get a good layer of protection on there and it'll make it easier to clean. You'd be able to get away with a quick snowfoam in between proper washes.
Is it standard or decatted and mapped ?!

I was going to ask the same question - a standard car shouldn't be doing this.
Mapped etc - well that's just part and parcel of diesel tuning.
Why on earth would you clean your car 3 times a week ? Surely after a point, it doesn't get any worse ?
I'm assuming you can still read the number plate after 2/3 days !? If not - your car is broken.
He had already mentionef he's cleaning it twice per week. With no solution to his question that im aware of, i suggested cleaning it more often to keep it looking nice.
The best tread ever on cliosport, DrR Your the fist person to comment on it back in 2009.

its mostly down to having a 175 with dpf delete and straight pipes, it's only recently been a bit worse since taking in on track, but cleaning wise i regularly take it to the local garage/supermarket for wash. Its due a full decontamination soon just before CSS
