2003 Vw Volkswagen Jetta Gls 1.8t Tiptronic Automatic on 2040-cars
Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania, United States
Upgraded to a newer car, so the old daily driver is for sale.
Car is a 2003 Jetta GLS 1.8T with Sport Package -135,000 miles -Platinum Gray -5 Speed Automatic with Tiptronic -Heated Seats -Black Cloth Interior -Sunroof/Moonroof -Monsoon Stereo -Owners Manual as well as all 3 keys in hand -Monster Mats (rubber) as well as cloth mats included I have installed a couple of cosmetic items which include: -Smoked GLI tail lamps -Smoked front side markers and turn signals -GTI 3 spoke steering wheel -Steering column mounted boost gauge (see pictures) Timing belt was done at 113,000 miles. At that time, water pump, cam seals, crank seal, valve cover gasket, and cam adjuster seals were all replaced. The engine does not leak a drop of oil. Car will come with stock 17 inch wheels with summer tires on them, as well as a set of 15 inch snow tires on separate wheels, obviously. The snows are currently on the car, have very few miles on them, and are virtually brand new. (See pictures) Summer tires are Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric (225/45/17) with about 60-70% tread remaining. Snows are General Altimax Arctic (195/65/15). Car has GIAC software which was done locally by AWE tuning. Software has only been in the car for a few months. Receipt is in the car, as well as the hand held program switcher. You can switch it back to the stock tune if you want to for some reason. Car will come with a fresh PA state inspection, good til 12/2014 Some other items worth noting: -Burns a minimal amount of oil. Been using Mobil 1 0w/40 and Mann filters and car only uses about 1/2 quart between 5000 oil changes. High oil consumption is common with neglected 1.8T's, but this is not one of them. -All transmission solenoids were replaced about a year ago. This is a common 5 speed automatic 09A issue. Can cause delayed engagement of drive and or reverse, as well as a number of no or harsh shift issues while you are driving. All solenoids were replaced (I think there are 9 total) and the fluid was changed at the same time using factory VW fluid. Transmission works great, with no issues. -I replaced the driver's seat bottom foam and upholstery (which includes the seat heater element) a few years ago. That means the upholstery on the driver's seat is in excellent condition with no rips, tears or other damage, which is also common with these cars. Seat heater also works great. The only issues with the car are a minor leak from the passenger side axle seal, and some cosmetic damage to the car. The worst of the damage is a minor scrape on the right rear wheel arch area, and some deeper scratches on the rear bumper. Take a look at the pictures, nothing major here. Car has been well cared for and hopefully will find a great new home. Again, only reason for selling is that I purchased a newer Jetta Sportwagen because I needed the additional room for hauling stuff. Not trying to hide anything. If you have any questions, just ask. If you want to make arrangements to come and take a look at the car, please don't wait until the last minute before doing to. I will do what I can to help. I am also willing to help with pickup of the car if you need it, as in picking you up as long as it is a reasonable distance. I will not deliver the car to your doorstep. Ask me and we can figure something out. Buyer is responsible for fees associated with transfer of the car into your name, which includes anything like title and registration fees. |

Coronavirus prompts VW to stop production throughout Europe
Tue, Mar 17 2020FRANKFURT — Volkswagen Group, the world's biggest carmaker, is suspending production at factories across Europe as the coronavirus pandemic hits sales and disrupts supply chains, the company said on Tuesday. The German carmaker, which owns the Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Ducati, Lamborghini, Porsche, Seat and Skoda brands, also said that uncertainty about the fallout from coronavirus meant it was impossible to give forecasts for its performance this year. "Given the present significant deterioration in the sales situation and the heightened uncertainty regarding parts supplies to our plants, production is to be suspended in the near future at factories operated by group brands," Chief Executive Herbert Diess said on Tuesday. Volkswagen's powerful works council concluded it was not possible for workers to maintain a safe distance from each other to prevent contagion and recommended a suspension of production at its factories from Friday. Production will be halted at VW's Spanish plants, in Setubal in Portugal, Bratislava in Slovakia and at the Lamborghini and Ducati plants in Italy before the end of this week, Diess said. Most of its other German and European factories will prepare to suspend production, probably for two to three weeks, while Audi said separately it would halt output at its plants in Belgium, Germany, Hungary and Mexico. Volkswagen's vast factories in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in Puebla, Mexico, and plants in Brazil were not affected, but that would depend on how the coronavirus spreads, VW said. Volkswagen has 124 production sites worldwide of which 72 are in Europe, with 28 in Germany alone. "2020 will be a very difficult year. The coronavirus pandemic presents us with unknown operational and financial challenges. At the same time, there are concerns about sustained economic impacts," Diess said. Â Production in China resumes Volkswagen Group sold 10.96 million vehicles last year, putting it ahead of Toyota based on the latest figures from the Japanese carmaker. Globally, VW employs 671,000 people and it delivered 4.86 million vehicles to European customers in 2019. Only last month the car and truck maker based in Wolfsburg, Germany, predicted that vehicle deliveries this year would match 2019 sales and forecast an operating return on sales in the range of 6.5% to 7.5%. "The spread of coronavirus is currently impacting the global economy. It is uncertain how severely or for how long this will also affect the Volkswagen Group.
VW teams up with legendary electronic musicians Kraftwerk for 3D Autobahn concert
Fri, Jan 9 2015Electronic music fans know Kraftwerk. To paraphrase a famous TV anchor, they're kind of a big deal. The band is in the midst of an eight-concert show at Berlin's Neue Nationalgalerie, which includes a full 3D accompaniment. Why, you ask, is this on Autoblog, then? Well, Volkswagen is sponsoring it, highlighting the role that its iconic Beetle played on the band's equally iconic fourth album, Autobahn. And besides, it's Friday afternoon, and who doesn't want to listen to the soothing synth notes of early EDM pioneers? Check out the featurette on the connection between VW and Kraftwerk, and then for giggles, scroll down and give the first track of Autobahn a listen. This content is hosted by a third party.

Top 10 small cars with the longest total driving range
Thu, Mar 19 2015Editor's Note: Since this article was originally posted in the spring of 2015, much has changed in the automotive landscape, especially among those shopping for small car economy. With thanks to Volkswagen for their blatant cheating – and subsequent cover-up – on diesel emissions, the largest player in the diesel passenger car segment isn't playing – they're paying; billions are going for both car buybacks and federally-imposed penalties. And for a few VW execs there exists the very real possibility of jail. With the absence of a big player and the abrupt entrance – via Chevy's new Bolt – of an affordable EV with 200+ miles of range, we've limited the diesel listings to Jaguar's new XE. And for those wanting an updated look at efficiency and range, Autoblog has it – or the EPA has it. Long before electric vehicles were part of the mainstream conversation, car lovers and skinflints alike would boast about the total range of their vehicles. There's something about getting farther down the road on one tank of gas that inflames the competitive spirit, almost as much as horsepower output or top speed. Of course, the vehicles with the very best range on today's market are almost all big trucks and SUVs; virtually all have the ability to carry massive reserves of fuel. Top up a standard Chevy Suburban and you can expect to travel almost 700 miles (you'll need to stop before the Suburban stops...), while a diesel-fed Jeep Grand Cherokee manages almost as many. But what about vehicles that are smaller? The EPA has, essentially, three classifications for 'small' vehicles: Minicompact, Subcompact and Compact. All three are measured based on interior volume, meaning that some cars with rather large exterior dimensions and engines slot in next to traditional small cars. But even though impressive GT coupes from Porsche, Bentley and Mercedes-Benz may have much larger gas tanks to feed their powerful engines, that capacity is offset by higher rates of consumption... in most cases. We used the EPA's Fuel Economy Guide for model year 2017 cars as a start, calculating the official highway miles per gallon rating with each vehicle's tank capacity. The resulting numbers aren't necessarily real world, but they do offer a spectrum for total theoretical range. The eventual top ten surprised me on a few occasions, and comprised quite a varied list of vehicles. 10.
