THE CABRIO IS A VERY LIGHT CAR AND DOES NOT EAT UP THE BREAKS.

THE BAD:

REAR RIGHT WINDOW DOES NOT OPERATE - IT IS UNPLUGGED BECAUSE THE MOTOR IS BAD
ABS LIGHT IS ON - IT SPONTANEOUSLY COMES ON AND OFF - THE CODE THAT IS PULLED FROM IT SAYS ITS LOW VOLTAGE TO THE WIRE - CAN BE REPAIRED BY TRACING THE ABS WIRES AND REPLACING THE ONE THAT IS BAD OR DRIVE WITH IT ON, DOES NOT AFFECT ANY REGULAR BRAKING.
RIGHT SIDE OF DASH NIGHT TIME LIGHTS COME ON AND OFF - THIS I BELIEVE RELATED WITH THE ABS LIGHT THAT IS ON, WHEN ALL THE NIGHT TIME DASH LIGHTS WORK I HAVE NOTICED THE ABS LIGHT GOES OFF.
FRONT RIGHT WHEEL 2 LUG BOLTS ARE SEIZED IN HUB - WILL NEED TO REPLACE THE HUB AND BEARING
ALL (4) STRUTS NEED TO BE REPLACED THEY ARE WORN - THE CAR PULLS TO THE LEFT SLIGHT - IT HAS BEEN ALIGNED A FEW TIMES BUT GOES OUT OF ALIGNMENT AFTER A FEW WEEKS BECAUSE THE STRUTS NEED TO BE REPLACED.

THE UGLY:

DRIVERS SEAT HAS TWO RIPS, ONE OF THE SEAT (LEFT SIDE) AND ON THE BACK (LEFT SIDE)
CARE HAS MINOR DENTS ON DOORS AND FENDERS - CAN ONLY BE SEEN UP CLOSE (LOOKS LIKE GROCERY CART HITS)
FRONT BUMPER AND READ BUMPER WILL NEED TO BE TOUCHED UP - GOT CAUGHT BEHIND A SALTING TRUCK THIS WINTER.

LEFT REAR RIM IS MISSING CENTER CAP
LEFT FRONT FENDER IS MISSING WOLFSBURG CAP

OVERALL THIS CAR HAS BEEN GREAT TO ME, AS A MECHANIC I FIXED WHAT NEED TO BE FIXED AS IT BROKE. UNFORTUNATELY I DO NOT HAVE THE TIME OR MONEY TO INVEST INTO THIS GAS SIPPER ANY MORE.
IT IS PERFECT FOR ANY FIRST TIME DRIVER DUE TO ITS SMALL SIZE, VW ENTHUSIAST ( MKIII BODY WHERE A VR6 MOTOR AND TRANS CAN BE PUT INTO IT ALL THAT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED IS THE AXLES) OR ANYONE WHO LOVES THE WIND IN THEIR HAIR AS THEY DRIVE DOWN TO THE BEACH.

VW Group to split brands under four holding companies

Tue, Jun 16 2015

The Volkswagen Group is planning a tremendous shift in its internal structure that will decentralize operations by splitting its 12 brands into four different holding companies. Here's the breakdown. Things will be split logically, considering the inter-sharing of parts, platforms, and engines. The Volkswagen brand, Seat, and Skoda make up a passenger vehicle division led by former BMW man Herbert Diess. Audi, which is tightly intertwined with Lamborghini and motorcycle manufacturer Ducati, will be managed by current Audi exec Rupert Stadler. Porsche and Bentley, which are already quite close, will be joined by Bugatti and run by Matthias Mueller. Finally, a commercial vehicles division will include Volkswagen Commercial, Scania, and Man. Former Daimler exec Andreas Renschler will take care of the big vehicles. The massive move, according to Automotive News Europe, is part of an internal VAG effort to move away from the structure established by ousted Chairman Ferdinand Piech, who favored a compact, but highly centralized, management structure to oversee the independent actions of the company's brands. Criticism of Piech's arrangement stemmed from the company's slow responses to changes in the market, ANE reports. The new structure should make for a more efficient, streamlined company that's better able to make crucial decisions. What are your thoughts? Should VAG decentralize, or did Piech have the right idea? Have your say in Comments.

UAW tactics called into question at VW's TN plant

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

The United Auto Workers is in hot water with some of the very workers it is trying to unionize at Volkswagen's Chattanooga assembly plant. According to The Tennessean, eight Volkswagen factory workers have filed complaints against the UAW with the National Labor Relations Board, claiming the union "misled or coerced" them into formally asking for union representation.
The UAW has instituted a major push at the Chattanooga plant to represent the 2,500 hourly laborers that build the VW Passat by using what's called a card-check process. The tactic is opposed by the National Right to Work Legal Defense foundation, the group representing the workers. The card-check process demands that a company recognize a union that obtains the signatures of more than half its workforce, according to The Tennessean. This tactic is in contrast to the more traditional route, which sees employees vote on union representation.
The workers filing the complaint claim that the UAW told them the cards merely called for a secret ballot, rather than an outright demand for union representation. Workers also allege that the UAW has made it overly difficult to reclaim their signed cards, some of which were signed so long ago that they have been rendered invalid. Although the cards can force a company's hand, federal law still allows the company to ask for a secret ballot before yielding to unionized workers.

Volkswagen Passat gets Wolfsburg Edition, priced from $23,495*

Tue, 23 Apr 2013

Volkswagen has just announced a new Passat Wolfsburg Edition, which slots between the base S and mid-grade SE trims in terms of content and price. The automaker has not released any official photos of the car as of this writing (aside from the badge shot you see here, of course), but the Wolfsburg Passat will be visually set apart from the rest by a unique set of 16-inch alloy wheels.
The big host of upgrades for the Wolfsburg Edition are found inside, where buyers will enjoy standard amenities like leatherette seats (with bun-warmers on the front chairs), a power driver's seat, satellite radio and a media interface with iPod connectivity. Of course, this comes on top of the already standard Passat features like Bluetooth and auto on/off headlamps. The Wolfsburg Passat will only be available with the 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine and a six-speed automatic transmission.
Look for the 2013 Wolfsburg Edition Passat to hit dealerships in the very near future, priced from $23,495, *not including $795 for destination. Have a look below for Volkswagen's official press blast.
