This vehicle is my pride and joy. I purchased this vehicle from a VW/Audi dealer in Newton, NJ a little over 2 years ago. I am the second owner. I will explain this vehicle to the best of my ability and perspective buyers are welcome to inspect the vehicle upon appointment in central NJ.
This is the 2009 MKV Volkswagen GTI. I purchased the vehicle because I needed a daily driver that would be fun to drive, fit my family, and not beat me up on gas. The vehicle has succeeded beyond my wildest dreams. Taking this vehicle to work was simply a joy. It's hard to find a car that's as versatile and fun to drive at the same time.
This vehicle has been maintained and have all records to show. VW recommends oil change every 10k. I have done this every 5K with Castrol Edge 5w-40. Engine is smooth and vehicle starts, runs, and drives perfect as it should.
For the money this vehicle includes things that most cars in it's price range can not compete with.
- Heated seats
- HID adjustable headlamps w/ fog lights
- Ambient lighting
- Air condition glove box
- Sirius radio with ipod input jack
- 10 Speakers
- Automatic speed sensitive wipers
- etc, etc, etc.
The vehicle has had no real issues in the passed. The repairs made in the car are as follows:
- Seat making noise (Fixed under warranty)
- Brake wear sensor malfunction. Replaced with OEM part
Maininence items that have been done include:
- Oil changed every 5k miles
- DSG service completed at 39k
- Fuel filter changed at 39k
- Front brakes have less than 5k (New pads and rotors)
- Rear brakes are BRAND NEW (Still had meat on the pads, just wanted new parts on the vehicle)
- Brake fluid flushed and bled
- Tires have less than 5K on them.
Issues that a buyer may question:
- VIN History shows fleet and/or lease use. This vehicle was a lease return when I purchased it at 19K miles.
- VIN History shows front end collision. The dealer tells me it was a fender bender that was reported to police with no air bag deployment or towing involved.
- There are no TPMS sensors in the wheels. The wheels are from a 2012 GTI which had the TPMS sensors in a different location. They can be purchased and installed if desired. I can also include the factory wheels instead of these but they have curb damage and tires have about 15k on them.
- Smaller than a dime sized ding on the roof from Hurricane Sandy. This was a branch that fell. I do NOT live on the coast or anywhere near water.
- Small chip on shifter bezel. This is a common VW issue and can be fixed easily by it's new owner.
Why you should consider this vehicle over similar GTI's
- All maintenance records are in my possession
- Paint and interior are in VERY GOOD condition. Only high end products used on this car.
- Fuel has only been Shell or Sunoco 93 octane. No cheap gas every used.
- Vehicle is garage kept MOST of the time.
- Transmission still under 10 yr 100k warranty from VW.
- NO mechanical issues. Very quick and fuel efficient vehicle.
- This is a 2009 which includes updated TSI engine. Burns NO oil and has a timing chain instead of a belt on the FSI engine.
Car is priced to sell. I do not want to get rid of it but since I've been driving a company vehicle I have no need for a third car. Price is OBO but please do not waste my or your time with low ball offers or SPAM.

Pontiac Aztek enjoys rebirth thanks to Millennials
Fri, Sep 11 2015Apparently, Millennials – those between 18 and 34 – aren't afraid to look different on the road, and they like performance, too. A new study by Edmunds is discovering some surprising vehicle choices by this group. Among them, the long-derided Pontiac Aztek is getting a new day in the sun with 25.5 percent its buyers coming from this generation in the first half of 2015. For comparison, Millennials represent an average of 16.8 percent of used car purchases. The Aztek is slowly shaking its reputation as a styling abomination, which seems tied to its appearance on Breaking Bad. The show premiered in 2008, and the Pontiac has been on this list for four of the past five years, according to Edmunds. It even led the pack in 2010. A recent Retro Review from MotorWeek also showed that the crossover wasn't always so hated. While it's still a shock to see the Aztek on any popularity list, the awkward-looking crossover only ranks sixth among Millennials. The vehicle with the biggest portion of buyers from the generation is the Dodge Magnum with 27.6 percent. According to Edmunds, the bluntly styled wagon is especially popular in Detroit and Chicago. The Chrysler Pacifica comes in a close second at 27.3 percent. When it comes to used cars, value and utility appear to trump just about anything else for many Millennial buyers," Edmunds analyst Jeremy Acevedo said in the report. Young buyers aren't afraid of sporty rides, either. The Subaru WRX has 26.4 percent Millennial buyers to rank third place on the list, and the Volkswagen R32 takes fifth at 25.7 percent. Just a few points lower in seventh place is the Nissan GT-R at 25.4 percent, and the final performance machine in 10th place is the Lexus IS-F with 24.7 percent. Related Video:
VW recalling 2.64M vehicles worldwide over engine, light issues
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Volkswagen is staging a massive, worldwide recall that's already grown from 1.68 million to 2.64 million vehicles and covers three different issues across a number of vehicles. We already reported on 61,000 Tiguans getting recalled over lighting issues - that was just in the US. Globally, however, VW will be recalling 800,000 Tiguans, according to Automotive News, with the focus on CUVs built between 2008 and 2011. The issue with the Tiguan relates to a simple fuse swap, so this is rather unremarkable, aside from the sheer number of vehicles being fixed. The real, troubling issues relate to gearboxes and pickups.
239,000 Amarok pickups (pictured right) are being recalled over fuel leaks, while 1.6 million vehicles are being recalled to swap the synthetic oil in dual-clutch transmissions with mineral oil. Now, the transmission issue is one for the global Volkswagen Group to address, not just the VW brand - vehicles from Audi, Škoda and Seat use the same seven-speed DSG and are covered under the recall, as well.
Why the switch from synthetic to mineral oil? Apparently, using the synthetic oil in a DSG and then subjecting it to stop-and-go conditions or heavy loads in a hot and humid climate can lead to electronic malfunctions, according to a Volkswagen press release. The switch, from the sounds of it, is largely a preventative measure.
