***This car had the ECU flashed two summers ago with Unitronic Stage 1 flash by a licensed Unitronic Dealer. I have never had any problems with anything throughout the different seasons. It got rid of some throttle lag and some other minor improvements. I got better gas mileage after the flash. It does call for 91 Octane Gasoline though. However, running 87 will not create a problem, it automatically adjusts to the lower grade fuel. Here is the link to the Unitronic website if you’d like to see the numbers and differences. http://www.unitronic-chipped.com/ecu-tuning/Volkswagen-Jetta-MK4-28L-12v-1999-2001

I have a k&n drop in air filter I clean every 15k and usually on highway trips I get 30-31 mpg. City I would say about 25-26. It is a great and reliable car and is fun to drive. I also have the stock radio and some other minor things I will include with the car. The 4 door speakers are aftermarket. They are Alpine 600c. The head unit is a Pioneer DEH-9800BT which includes Bluetooth. I have a microphone for the bluetooth handsfree I will include with the car, I just never mounted it.  

Car was last inspected 1/15 and is good until 1/15. During last inspection headlights were wet sanded and polished so they do not have the foggy look many mkiv's have.

THE BAD:
Drivers door panel is slightly broken and catches when the door is opened. This was due to the door hinge being bent but it was replaced.
The only three rust spots are in the pictures, they are on both fenders, and one window seal. 
Most of the cooling system was replaced however there is still a very slight leak. I only have to add coolant every month in a half or two months though. Mechanic stated it is too minuscule to worry about fixing. 

  I am only accepting CASH and you must pick up the vehicle on your own. I am not accepting paypal, nor am I offering any returns on the vehicle. BUYER is responsible for any fees taxes etc with title transfer.

If you would like to see pictures in higher resolution I can email them to you. If you have any other questions please feel free to message me. Thank you

VW adding particulate filters to gas engines

Wed, Aug 3 2016

Volkswagen is working hard to overcome the PR disaster that is its diesel emissions scandal, and part of its efforts is focusing, weirdly, on petrol engines. Starting in June 2017, the embattled German automaker will add particulate filters to the gas-powered Volkswagen Tiguan and Audi A5. The change will eventually impact nearly every direct-injected gas engine the VW Group makes. Audi? Particulate filter. Seat? Particulate filter. Even Bentley is going to get the tech, all in a bid to reduce soot emissions by 90 percent. In fact, by 2022 VAG expects 7 million of its vehicles to boast the emissions-cleaning tech, which has long been a fixture on diesel engines. "Following increases in efficiency and lower CO2 output, we are now bringing about a sustained reduction in the emission levels of our modern petrol engines by fitting particulate filters as standard," Volkswagen Group research and design boss Dr. Ulrich Eichhorn said in a statement. "In the future, all models will be equipped with the latest and most efficient SCR catalytic converter technology." VW's initial rollout focuses on the 1.4-liter, turbocharged Tiguan and the 2.0-liter, turbocharged A5. Considering the popularity of the 2.0-liter across the VW range, we'd expect it's only a matter of time before VW expands its particulate filters tech to additional gas-powered vehicles.

Subaru WRX vs. Volkswagen GTI | Under-$30K fun

Mon, Aug 7 2017

If financing a new car purchase for 60 months, you'll spend roughly $200/month for those five years on every $10K you finance. Subaru's WRX and Volkswagen's GTI, each with a base price of around $25K (which equates to roughly $400/month with 20 percent down) can easily become $40K (in WRX STI and Golf R trim). That extra $15,000 will cost you almost $300/month over the life of a 60-month payment book. A $40K Subaru or Volkswagen is cheap in terms of enjoying the additional performance, but if your goal is only to get places in a fast hatch or sedan, you can keep your outlay far closer to the base price. Just mind the options. VW GTI: In the increasingly popular hot hatch segment, the GTI was arguably the first. Based on the revolutionary (for the mid-'70s) Golf hatchback, the GTI offered upgraded power, improved handling and just enough cosmetic enhancements to let others know you were driving something special. Consumer response was immediate, and imitators came out of the woodwork. Now in its seventh iteration (as of the 2015 model year), the GTI has consistently evolved. Its 2.0-liter turbocharged four makes 210 horsepower and — more important in day-to-day driving — 258 pound-feet of torque. Its footprint remains comfortably small, with easy access to front and rear seats and, if you need to carry something large, it has an expansive hatch and fold-down rear seat. Like most of the VW/Audi family, its interior design and appointment bat well above the $25,000 price point. Whether selecting the six-speed manual transmission or six-speed DSG automatic, know that a responsive, agile hatchback is just a throttle tip-in away. It's perfect for the in-town commute, weekend getaway or cross-country romp. And it appeals to a wide demographic, so resale value will remain high. Subaru WRX: This once was a performance derivative not shared with American consumers. But with its success globally, Subaru brought the WRX to the States, with the high-performance STI variant not long after. Having been offered in the U.S. as a sedan, wagon and hatchback, today's WRX is available only as a four-door sedan. As on every Subaru available in the U.S. (except the BRZ), all-wheel drive is standard. Power is supplied by a turbocharged flat four displacing 2.0 liters but upping the horsepower to 268, while available torque is numerically identical to the GTI's at 258 pound-feet.

VW LogBox and Race App performance data logger for R models [w/video]

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Now that it's got a 300-horsepower Golf R to brag about, Volkswagen wants you to be able to brag about it accurately with the LogBox and Race App performance data logging combo. Plug the LogBox into your VW's OBD II port and it sends data over BlueTooth to the Race App, measuring variables like acceleration, distance, G-force and engine performance. If you're on a circuit, it uses Google Maps to make a map of the track, and you can record live video in-app to match with the data. Volkswagen says the LogBox will be available for R models and "a range of further Volkswagen cars," so you'll want to hit up your dealer with questions before ordering. It's available from the VW accessories store for 299 euros ($365 US), but right now the free app is only available in German, in the German-language iTunes and Google Play store. We imagine that will be corrected shortly; in the meantime, the video can show you how it works.
