1998 Volkswagen Jetta Tdi Turbo Diesel Low Miles on 2040-cars
Spring Arbor, Michigan, United States
|
I am selling for a friend. This is a great car. Runs and drives great! 45-50mpg highway. This is a one owner car. Non-smoker. It was purchased new in 1998 in California then moved to Michigan, July 2005. Cold A/C. Turbo diesel with manual transmission. Only rust is on bottom of drivers side rear door(see photo). All four tires have good tread. Back tires are weather checked. The "check engine" light is on. According to my mechanic, it is the ecu. It has no effect on running or driving. The code came up as a "random access memory" code. No relevance at all to running or efficiency. The windshield was just replaced because it was cracked. If you check the photos, both corners have scuffing or paint cracking on the rear bumper cover. Another photo shows a very small dent just under the antenna on the drivers side front fender. I have a new front fog light lens cover on order and should be here by auction end .Other than that, there is just minor scuffing and chips. The power steering is noisy at idle and steers hard until the rpms are higher. Under normal driving it is fine. The battery was replaced 6 months ago, then the car sat all winter without being driven. This is a little old lady's car who decided she should no longer be driving. I have tried to describe the car the best I could. $500.00 due at auction end. Then I will accept cash or bank money order for balance upon pick up of car. If you have any questions at all please feel free to email me. Thanks!

Europeans get first crack at new Golf Variant wagon
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Just last week, when we brought you news of a new Volkswagen Golf variant out and testing in Europe, we had no idea we were being so literal with out description. For it seems that VW has every intention of calling its new Golf wagon, making its Geneva debut, the "Golf Variant."
Odd/interesting sobriquets taken as read then, there's a lot to like about this new small wagon from VW. The Variant will shed some 232 pounds in this generation, and will come to market with two efficient TDI engines. Volkswagen isn't giving us displacement figures for either yet, but we're told the diesels will come with outputs of 110 and 150 horsepower. The 110-hp TDI BlueMotion Varient will be good for a whopping 71.3 miles per gallon on the European cycle, when mated to the six-speed manual transmission.
The German automaker has brought along an all-wheel-drive 4Motion version of the Gold Variant to bow in Geneva, as well, and a natural gas-burning TGI BlueMotion is said to be "in the pipeline."
VW confirms new TDI for second half of 2014 in Golf, Jetta, Passat and Beetle
Tue, 18 Mar 2014Diesel lovers rejoice. Volkswagen is bringing the latest iteration of its 2.0-liter four-cylinder diesel engine - dubbed the EA288 - to the 2015 model year Golf, Jetta, Passat, Beetle (2013 model pictured above) and Beetle Convertible, and the cars will be on sale in the second half of 2014.
While it shares its moniker with the old diesel, the new engine produces 150 horsepower, a 10-hp boost, and 236 pound-feet of torque. VW promises improved fuel economy as well, but it hasn't announced specifically what amount yet. The company claims that despite the same displacement, only the bore spacing is shared with the previous version. The mill includes new features like exhaust gas recirculation, an intercooler integrated into the intake manifold and low-friction camshaft bearings.
VW Group of America has had great success with diesels in the US recently. Vee-Dub and Audi sold 105,899 diesel-equipped models in 2013. It was the first time the group ever sold over 100,000 diesels in a year, and they accounted for 24 percent of sales. Scroll down to read the full press release about the announcement.
UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Dec 2012There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
