This car is a tank with the raw power and the AWD! It puts a lot of smiles on peoples' faces and sounds amazing but I'm selling it since I moved to the city, so the car is no longer practical for me. I keep an organied folder with receipts from repairs. The VF Engineering supercharger kit was professionally installed by AWE Tuning. Very few (I've heard under 2,000) were made in Reflex Silver w/ cloth 2 tone seats. Anybody who knows VW's knows that the mk4 R32's are the highest quality and nicest looking VW's. As long as I've owned it it's always been hand washed, always used 93+ octane gas, always garaged, always driven below 2.5k rpm before warmed up, always maintained by excellent techs. Clean title. Paint is great and NO rust! I've Never had any problems with the supercharger kit. Video of another R32 w/ the same supercharger kit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_10ciXLbbM The following work has all been done in the last 16 months and I have the receipts : All new brake pads and rotors (OEM) New Tires (approx. 80% TREAD LEFT!) New Coolant Temp Sensor New Shifter Plate New Spark Plugs (2k miles ago) New Charger Oil Line (1k miles ago) New A/C Compressor (2k miles ago) New Supercharger Belt (2k miles ago) New Camshaft Speed Sensor (1k miles ago) Tranny fluid flush (2k miles ago) Coolant Flush (2k miles ago) Oil change (2k miles ago) Sunroof drains cleaned out (2k miles ago) * Never dyoned, trcked, etc. but car is rated around 375hp on 93octane Aftermarket: -VF Engineering stage II Supercharger kit (fully polished option) w/ Intercooler (professionally installed by AWE Tuning) -Twin diverter valves option -Flapper Mod (necessary for the high HP) - Audi TT 18" Spare donut tire - pro tint job (it's completely needed since the interior being black gets very hot) -THULE Roof Racks w/ sport visor The Bad: The R32 is officially 10 years old so it's got some flaws: Front bumper lower corner cracked from hitting a curb stop - from previous owner Quarter size dent in driver's side front fender. A few rock chips on hood One of the cooling fans is out but never had problems when the outside temp is below 70 degrees... It only begins overheating if you're in traffic for a long time or running it hard without a rest) Minor Vibration at about 900 rpm sometimes... I've talked to a few techs about the issue and they say it's a vacuum leak (a common occurrence on these supercharger kits) Very difficult to find a high HP, tuned car that was very well cared for. Let me know if you have any questions!

Anti-UAW VW workers move to form own union

Sat, 30 Aug 2014

The 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.

U.S. tariff threat hits European automakers' stocks

Thu, May 24 2018

FRANKFURT, Germany — A U.S. warning that it may introduce tariffs on foreign auto imports hit shares in German carmakers BMW, Daimler and Volkswagen on Thursday, which together have a more than 90 percent share of North America's premium car market. Washington said on Wednesday it had launched an investigation into whether car and truck imports are a national security issue due to signs they had damaged the U.S. auto industry. That could lead to new U.S. tariffs — up to 25 percent — similar to those imposed on imported steel and aluminum in March. BMW and Daimler shares fell as much as 3.1 percent in early Thursday trading, while Volkswagen's dropped as much as 2.5 percent. "(U.S. President) Donald Trump is obviously not thinking about how to prevent a trade war. Import duties on cars would be a nightmare for the German auto industry and would lead to a massive sales impact," said Thomas Altmann at Frankfurt-based asset manager QC Partners. BMW on Thursday condemned the move to consider tariffs. "The BMW Group is committed to free trade worldwide. Barrier-free access to markets is therefore a key factor not only for our business model, but also for growth welfare and employment throughout the global economy," it said. Daimler, which makes Mercedes-Benz cars, and Volkswagen, which makes upmarket Audis and Porsches, were not immediately available for comment. German carmakers produced 804,000 cars at local factories in the United States and exported 657,000 German-made cars into North America last year, according to German auto industry association VDA. China took pains on Thursday to welcome German firms and investments, with Premier Li Keqiang talking up relations after a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel. BMW and Mercedes have expanded production capacity in the United States, but BMW, Audi, Volkswagen and Daimler have also invested billions to build new factories in Mexico in the hope of selling locally produced cars into the United States. German carmakers hiked vehicle production in Mexico by 46 percent to 620,000 cars last year, while production levels inside the United States fell by 6 percent to 804,000 cars because of a shift to Mexico, according to the VDA. BMW has its biggest factory worldwide in Spartanburg, South Carolina, and is the largest vehicle exporter among all the carmakers in the United States measured by value of goods exported. More than 70 percent of BMW's U.S.-made cars are exported.

VW ready to spend $25B on at least 6 EVs in China by 2018

Tue, Apr 22 2014

Standing next to the lovely GTE plug-in hybrid during the Beijing Motor Show, VW CEO Martin Winterkorn announced a renewed, $25-billion focus for the German automaker on electric mobility in China. EVs + China is not a new equation for VW (see here and here and here), but the time is now for the plan to come together, apparently. As Winterkorn said in a statement (available below), "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history." "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history" – Martin Winterkorn With the Porsche Panamera S E-hybrid already in showrooms, the next tip of the spear is made up of the all-electric e-up! and e-Golf, both of which are due later this year. In 2015, the Audi A3 e-tron and Golf GTE will arrive. In 2016, there will be two exclusive-to-China plug-in hybrid vehicles in showrooms: a A6 PHEV and a "new mid-size limousine from the Volkswagen brand." VW Group may even throw in the Bentley Hybrid Concept for good measure. The China-only models will be built in the country and VW is investing over $25 billion between now and 2018, creating an expected 20,000 jobs. VOLKSWAGEN GROUP STARTS ELECTRO-MOBILITY CAMPAIGN IN CHINA CEO Prof. Dr. Winterkorn: "We are launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history." Campaign gets underway with electric up!1 and e-Golf2 Over ˆ18 billion to be spent on new vehicles, technologies and plants up to 2018 Over 500,000 employees at more than 3,600 dealerships in 2018 Vehicle deliveries in China targeted to top 3.5 million for first time in 2014 Wolfsburg / Beijing, April 22, 2014: "The Volkswagen Group is once again assuming a pioneering role in China and launching the biggest initiative for e-mobility in China's automotive history," Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn, CEO of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, announced at the Auto China motor show in Beijing. The initiative gets underway with the launch this year of the Volkswagen brand's electric up!1 and e-Golf2 models. While the Porsche Panamera S E-hybrid3 is already in the showrooms in China, the Group will be launching two further innovative plug-in hybrid vehicles there next year with the Audi A3 e-tron4 and the Golf GTE5.
