1997 Passat Sedan TDI Diesel 1.9L engine, 5 speed Manual Transmission, Green Body color, Light Tan interior. I drove for several years. I had to brake hard for deer in 5th gear. When I came to stop sign and went to take off. Drivetrain didn't pull or make a sound. Axles don't turn. I think something is wrong in Transmission. It has over 403,000 miles on it. It always got great mileage 50mpg. I have two other Passats and two Jettas with 4 of us driving in household. This was the best mileage of all Passats. All 4 doors open and close. Sony 10x CD in trunk with cassette at Sony radio. Driver's door lock has been replaced has separate key. Sunroof works. Rear cup holder still good. I picked up a 3rd Jetta so I won't be fixing this one. I am also listing a good transmission with engine see other listings. I am selling as is no reserve.

UAW angered over VW workers getting right to defend anti-union vote
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The United Auto Workers have called a decision by the National Labor Relations Board allowing anti-UAW employees at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga the right to defend voting down unionization at the plant "an outrage."
You'll recall that the union was defeated by a vote of 712 to 626 in a contentious February election. The UAW claims the outcome was unfairly swayed by pro-business, anti-union forces, including Senator Bob Corker and political advocate Grover Norquist.
This new decision by the NLRB essentially gives workers backed by the anti-UAW National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation and Southern Momentum a formal voice in the impending hearing on the UAW's appeal of the vote.

VW says it has sold over 100,000 TDI diesels in America this year
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Volkswagen Group of America has lit oil-burning fireworks to celebrate the sales of more than 100,000 TDI Clean Diesel vehicles in the US between its VW and Audi brands this year. According to VW, that means it is responsible for more than 75 percent of diesel-engined cars and SUVs sold here - perhaps not surprising when the two brands offer a total of 12 diesel models.
What might be surprising is that the number of diesels isn't far off the estimated sales of 90,000 battery electric vehicles and PHEVs, with 15,000 of those accounted for by the Tesla Model S, another 12,000 or so being the Toyota Prius PHEV.
VW's keen to play up the ease of making diesel part of your life, stressing that it doesn't need any change to the refueling infrastructure and that "this is a technology delivering real answers to society's concerns about fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions without compromises."
