2010 Jetta Sportwagen Jsw Tdi, Dsg, Platinum Gray, Pano, Nav, Rear Air Bags on 2040-cars
Hilliard, Ohio, United States
We are the 2nd owners and my wife uses this car as a daily driver that is garaged at home and at work.
The first was a 74 year old local retired gentleman. We hold the clean and clear title in hand with MY NAME on it ! i have personally driven this car to Chicago and back averaging 47MPG doing ~3mph over the speed limit. 42MPG in real world conditions are easily obtainable if you stick to Energy-efficient driving techniques. My wife does a lot of city driving and naturally refuses to obey any of my instructions on hypermiling and gets an average of around 38MPG. ;-) No repaints, accidents or bodywork of any kind. Garaged EVERY night and EVERY single day at work. The car has minor dents, dings and scratches from every day use that happened during previous owners ownership - but rest assured we are the ones ALWAYS parking furthest from the entrance of the grocery store, restaurant or any structure prone to be frequented by the careless masses. Known as a Mk6 Golf variant on the rest of the planet, but sold as the Jetta Sportwagen here in the US. If you are looking at this listing you must know how coveted these are. I will spare you the plethora of reviews that rant and rave about the superiority of the TDI wagon to any SUV when it comes to fuel economy, utilitarian value, practicality and TCO (total cost of ownership). The car has following options : - Platinum gray metallic Exterior Titan Black Interior - DVD satellite Navigation system ($1800 and worth every penny!) - Panoramic sunroof ($1300) - 6-speed DSG transmission ($1100) - 17" alloy wheels ($450) - Rear Side Airbags (rare) ($350) - Sport & Protection Rubber mats, splash guards & trunk liner ($310) - Media Device Interface for ipod ($200) all in it cost $30,559 plus tax delivered at Byers Imports in Columbus, OH. All maintenance done at local VW and Audi dealerships Byers and Hatfield, all paperwork incl. windowsticker comes with the car. After free maintenance (until 36k miles) always serviced by Jon Hamilton, a TDI-club trusted mechanic and world record holder on Pikes Peak in a 2000 Golf TDI, starting with the 40k DSG service. 2-17-2014 complete timing belt service: replaced timing belt, timing belt cover, timing belt tensioner, small top roller, small lower roller, large upper roller, water pump, serpentine belt and coolant - while the car was out of commission for a few days I went ahead and had a RocketChip Stage 1+ tune done ($1653.57) 12-2-13 60k service incl. brake fluid replacement ($224.70) (all OE parts used, german Pentosin Super Dot 4 brake fluid, etc. etc.) 11-12-2013 all tires were replaced with Continental Extreme Contact DWS All Season tires incl. discount tire free replacement certificates (works at every discount tire in the US, $701). 5-21-2013 DSG (fluid and filter) and 50k miles service ($416.33) please contact me with any serious questions. I can send you a link to the picasa web album with detailed high res pics. I also have a carfax report as well. this pic shows every tool i own in the back of the trunk. I ran out of tools before i ran out of space ;-) I will arrange PPIs at buyers expense (and reserve the right to refuse shops that i deem not trustworthy with my cars) and would be more than happy to accommodate a fly & drive. Closest airport to me is CMH (Port Columbus International Airport). My last TDI (an ALH) with almost 200k miles went to a very happy and satisfied buyer in Texas who flew in and drove it back (never having driven a manual car before) and averaged 56mpg all the way back ;-) in case you are wondering why the timing belt, water pump, rollers and tensioners have been done already - this was due to a timing belt roller bearing failure. as a result : - outer shell "ate" a perfect hole through the timing belt cover - something started cutting into the timing belt - all the balls from the bearing ended up in the bottom half of the timing belt cover HOWEVER no tooth was skipped, belt did not tear and no further damage but boy what a PITA having to do the timing belt 4k miles after warranty ran out. Most guys do not do all this work until 100k-120k miles. So the biggest maintenance item has been done. |

Anti-UAW VW workers move to form own union
Sat, 30 Aug 2014The struggle over unionization at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga, TN, continues to get more complicated. There's now a second union fighting to organize at the plant; although this one is staunchly against the actions of the United Auto Workers. At the same time, the UAW is still signing up voluntary members to its recently created Local 42 at the facility and is reportedly near having a majority of the hourly employees on its side.
The new, anti-UAW union campaign is being spearheaded by employee Mike Burton, according to Reuters, and he calls his group the American Council of Employees. He claims to already have 108 signatures in support of his organization. Burton believes that the UAW is harmful to businesses, and his goal is to force another vote to determine a preferred union among workers.
The UAW was initially defeated (712 to 626) when it attempted a union vote at the Tennessee plant in February. However, UAW secretary-treasurer Gary Casteel told Reuters that Local 42 has already signed up over 700 members. If it can reach a majority of the roughly 1,500 employees, the group hopes VW might consider recognizing it as the factory's union.
Volkswagen CrossBlue Coupe is a green fun-machine we want to drive
Fri, 19 Apr 2013Think back to January's Detroit Auto Show. Those of you that are fans of the Volkswagen brand, impressed with green technology or simply fall into the "diesel geek" category, will almost certainly remember VW's CrossBlue concept with its diesel/electric hybrid powertrain, seating for seven, and somewhat awkward crossover styling. It was an impressive piece of future tech, to be sure, though it left something to be desired in the, well, desirability department.
Here in Shanghai, VW has brought along a CrossBlue Coupe concept that would seem to include most of the goodness of the original, but flavored with more sport and style this time around.
The CrossBlue Coupe makes use of the same electric drive components as the larger three-row concept: two electric motors (front and rear) powered by a 9.8-kWh lithium-ion battery. However, where the original concept made use of a TDI four-cylinder, the Coupe substitutes a 295-horsepower, direct-injection, gasoline-burning V6.
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.
