The time has come to sell my beloved jetta in hopes that someone will get as much enjoyment out of it as i did. It is a 1984 1.6 factory turbo diesel 5 speed. I have done alot of work to the car over the years and taken very good care of it.

It belonged to my cousin who bought it from the original owner out of north carolina. My cousin would drive the car back and fourth from n.c. to lititz pa to visit her family. She eventually gave it to her father who drove it around town on occasion. He had a local vw specialist do all the work to the car before i got it.

Once he sold it to me i drove it around for about a month until the injection pump went out do to bad injectors. The car sat for a couple years until i had the pump fixed and the injectors rebuilt. when I was installing the injectors I cracked the head at the bottom of the threads. I removed the head and had it welded and installed new gaskets and out it back together. The car has been this way for several years now with zero problems. It has 197,000 miles on the motor the trans was replaced with one from an eco diesel and the 5th gear (.71) from the original trans was installed for long distance driving. I still have the original trans but the diff broke so not sure how much is good with it. The pump has been tweaked slightly and a boost controller installed to allow it to run 20 psi of boost with minimal smoke. The exhaust is custom 2.5" mandrel bent from turbo back with no muffler or cat. I have installed aftermarket boost, egt, and oil pressure gauges in the factory center console to keep an eye on everything. The air conditioning has been gone over and all internals cleaned and re-charged with r 134. The heater core was replaced a couple years ago. Both heat and a/c work.

About 2 years ago I had a friend who is a painter sand the whole car down and repaint the car in the original color gambia red. At that time I found a euro jetta front end and clear corners and euro jetta bumpers and installed them. The tail lights are cheap knockoff clear tails that i fixed to keep from leaking and seal to the car and painted red. I have the original tail lights as well. It has raceland coils, all new suspension bushings and new control arms as well as new inner and outer tie rod ends. I bought a set of 2.5" osvw strut caps with mk4 bushings. I just put new brakes on the front and upgraded to the gli pads and rotors.

The interior is all original with the exception of the 4 button turbo diesel steering wheel i got from overseas. It is in good shape for its age with no tears in the seats. The headliner has a couple small tears in it one of which i repaired but it is not sagging. The front windshield seal is new and new chrome was installed in the front and rear seals. It doeas have a factory sunroof that works and doesnt leak. It has a fairly new seal on it as well.

As of now the car has 13" bmw turbine wheels with 165/65-13. I still have the gold rota 15" wheels and will consider selling them with the car for the asking price.

Mueller named Audi boss, too

Mon, Dec 7 2015

Matthias Muller, chairman of the board for the Volkswagen Group, has officially taken the role of chairman of the supervisory board for subsidiary Audi. Muller takes over the role from the disgraced Martin Winterkorn. This appointment should come as a shock to no one, and not just because we told you about it last week. Since Audi is part of the Volkswagen Group, which Muller leads, he's effectively been the head of the subsidiary brand since his appointment in late September. This news simply formalizes his positioning at the Ingolstadt-based company. This, of course, is not Muller's first go-around at Audi. He previously served as Head of Product Management Audi (along with Lamborghini and Seat), before taking the lead on product planning at the entire VW Group. Check out the official press release from VAG. MATTHIAS MULLER BECOMES CHAIRMAN OF THE AUDI SUPERVISORY BOARD Ingolstadt/Neckarsulm, December 7, 2015 – The Chairman of the Board of Management of Volkswagen AG, Matthias Muller, has joined the Supervisory Board of AUDI AG and becomes its Chairman with immediate effect. Berthold Huber will continue to be Deputy Chairman. Furthermore, the two vacant seats for members representing the shareholders will be newly occupied by Julia Kuhn Piech and Josef Ahorner. Matthias Muller has been a member of the Board of Management of Volkswagen AG since March 1, 2015 and its Chairman since September 25, 2015. After completing high school in Ingolstadt, he did a toolmaker's apprenticeship at Audi. He then studied informatics at the Munich University of Applied Sciences. After graduating in informatics, Muller continued his career at Audi in 1978, progressing to become the Head of Product Management for the Audi, Lamborghini and SEAT brands. From 2007 onwards, Muller was Head of Product Management for the Volkswagen Group and the VW brand as well as Executive Vice President of the Volkswagen Group. From 2010 until September 2015, Matthias Muller was Chairman of the Board of Management of Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG. Josef Ahorner (55) is the chairman of the supervisory board and main shareholder of Emarsys AG, and was a member of the shareholder committee of Salzburger Porsche Holding from 1996 until 2008. Julia Kuhn-Piech (34) is a real estate manager and a member of the supervisory boards of MAN SE and the Truck & Bus division of MAN AG.

Skoda racing Up! to Worthersee with Citigo Rally concept

Thu, 17 May 2012

If you thought the Volkswagen Group was about to wind down the endless stream of concept cars based on the new Up! city car, think again. Because not only is the Volkswagen brand itself keeping the train a-moving, so are its sister brands.
Skoda has its own version of the Up called the Citigo. But what racing fans know the Czech subsidiary for best is its rally program that has become a dominant force in the Intercontinental Rally Challenge and the basis for VW's own foray into the World Rally Championship. Now Skoda is bringing the two together with an exciting concept car previewed by the rendering above and confirmed in the press release below.
Following in the footsteps of the tantalizing Fabia roadster unveiled last year, the Citigo Rally concept is to be the centerpiece of the Skoda display at the Volkswagen Group's annual hot-hatch gathering at Lake Wörthersee in Austria. Details are scarce, but the show car will feature rally-inspired bodywork complete with 18-inch white alloys packed into aggressively flared wheel arches, a substantial rear wing and vents aplenty.

VW to unveil diesel-electric Twin-Up! in Tokyo

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

We've received multiple reports that Volkswagen will be bringing a diesel-electric concept to the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show, set to take place later this month. The car, called the Twin-Up!, is based on the Up! city car, with some sources claiming this is a thinly veiled concept that will eventually enter production.
According to Automotive News Europe, the Twin-Up! will reportedly return 214 miles per gallon on the US cycle by combining an 800-cc, two-cylinder diesel and an electric motor. It will also boast plug-in capabilities, and will be able to cover 30 miles on electric power alone.
Autocar has a more complete picture of the Twin-Up!'s powertrain, though, claiming it's a modified version of the hybrid system found in the Volkswagen XL1. The Twin-Up! will get a more potent, 47-horsepower electric motor to the XL1's 27-hp unit, but will retain that car's 47-hp turbodiesel. The battery pack will also grow, from 5.5 kilowatt hours to 8.6 kWh. Both of these increases are necessary due to the increased weight of the Twin-Up! - it's some 900 pounds heavier than an XL1.
