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. |

VW will delay projects to cope with diesel scandal
Tue, Oct 6 2015Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal will require the sacrifice of far more than just executives and money. It's also going to result in the cancellation of various projects, a process that new CEO Matthias Mueller said "won't be painless." "We will review all planned investments, and what isn't absolutely vital will be canceled or delayed," Mueller said while addressing the embattled company's employees. The former Porsche boss also said the money set aside by the German giant – about $7.29 billion – won't be enough to cover recall expenses, fines from governments in affected countries, and the expected deluge of lawsuits from disgruntled TDI owners. According to Bloomberg, that figure probably won't even be enough to match the fines Uncle Sam is likely charge, pegged to be around $7.4 billion, according to one analyst. It's expected that VW could delay a further push for share in the North American market, which would include a $1-billion investment in its Puebla, Mexico, factory. But it will take more than cancellations and delays, analysts claim. "It's going to be tough to find projects they could chop that will actually move the needle," JPMorgan Chase's Jose Asumendi told Bloomberg. "What they really need to do is get costs under control." That, according to Bloomberg, is already setting up a showdown between management and labor. The latter wants a reduction in VW's $17.4-billion research-and-development budget – the world's largest and more than what Ford and General Motors spend combined – while the former wants to slash personnel costs. Bloomberg also spoke to analysts who claimed the company should look into reductions in purchasing costs as well as trimming sponsorships. It's impossible to know just how extreme Volkswagen will need to get with cancellations, delays, and cost-cutting, but it's becoming increasingly clear that the effects of this scandal will likely be felt far longer than the controversies that surrounded other automakers like General Motors and Toyota.

That said, there were other important reveals like the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport and the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek. We also learned some interesting tidbits, such as the fact that VW is considering a pickup, and Jeep owners really are plugging in.

Here are a few of our automotive guilty pleasures
Tue, Jun 23 2020It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway. The world is full of cars, and just about as many of them are bad as are good. It's pretty easy to pick which fall into each category after giving them a thorough walkaround and, more important, driving them. But every once in a while, an automobile straddles the line somehow between good and bad — it may be hideously overpriced and therefore a marketplace failure, it may be stupid quick in a straight line but handles like a drunken noodle, or it may have an interior that looks like it was made of a mess of injection-molded Legos. Heck, maybe all three. Yet there's something special about some bad cars that actually makes them likable. The idea for this list came to me while I was browsing classified ads for cars within a few hundred miles of my house. I ran across a few oddballs and shared them with the rest of the team in our online chat room. It turns out several of us have a few automotive guilty pleasures that we're willing to admit to. We'll call a few of 'em out here. Feel free to share some of your own in the comments below. Dodge Neon SRT4 and Caliber SRT4: The Neon was a passably good and plucky little city car when it debuted for the 1995 model year. The Caliber, which replaced the aging Neon and sought to replace its friendly marketing campaign with something more sinister, was panned from the very outset for its cheap interior furnishings, but at least offered some decent utility with its hatchback shape. What the two little front-wheel-drive Dodge models have in common are their rip-roarin' SRT variants, each powered by turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. Known for their propensity to light up their front tires under hard acceleration, the duo were legitimately quick and fun to drive with a fantastic turbo whoosh that called to mind the early days of turbo technology. — Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski Chevrolet HHR SS: Chevy's HHR SS came out early in my automotive journalism career, and I have fond memories of the press launch (and having dinner with Bob Lutz) that included plenty of tire-smoking hard launches and demonstrations of the manual transmission's no-lift shift feature. The 260-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder was and still is a spunky little engine that makes the retro-inspired HHR a fun little hot rod that works quite well as a fun little daily driver.
