2005 Vw Touareg V6 Fully Equipped! 75k Miles Silver/black Leather! Super Clean!! on 2040-cars
Miami, Florida, United States
Offered for sale is my wife's 2005 VW Touareg. I had no intention of selling it until I went to the dealer recently to get it serviced. I happened to sit inside the new 2014 Touareg...I found myself driving it home a few hours later...
This was my wife's vehicle and it only has 75K on it because she never used it for anything more than groceries or dropping off and picking up our 3 kids at school, camp, sports...etc. We also took a couple of road trips in it around Florida, Georgia and North Carolina. I bought it because although it isn't huge, It is quite roomy and built like a tank. It has been very reliable, is clean, very safe and runs very strong. The engine and transmission are excellent and it has been very well maintained. There are no strange noises, rattles or shakes of any kind. Just solid, smooth and quiet. It has the 3.2 VR6 motor which has an impressive power band, good torque and loves the highway. It's also very comfortable, attractive and very well optioned. Every single thing in the car works well and the AC blows freezing cold. It does need a little TLC though to make it perfect again. The headliner is beginning to sag a little in the trunk area but nothing too serious, my daughter Maya had a red crayon incident on one of the rear pillars but I'm working on that with a Clorox wipe as I type this. Carfax will show this vehicle was involved in a collision but NO METAL or body panel on the vehicle was ever damaged or hit. There was very light damage that occurred to the passenger side, lower front bumper area which was dealer repaired. They repainted the bumper and replaced some plastic molding and a fog light. That's it. I recently took it to my VW dealer for service and maintenance, they've always been very reasonable and decent with me, I've been buying from them since 2000 and also own a GTI...this latest Touareg makes this our 9th VW. I had a light come on the dash recently and was told that I need to replace a (small electrical) stepper motor in the front differential, it is associated with "Hill Descent Control" and does not affect the way the car drives but is a common fault on this SUV. The driveshaft on this SUV can also be a problem but I already replaced it with an upgraded Porsche Cayenne driveshaft. Bear in mind these two vehicles share the same chassis platform, along with many of their parts. The battery was replaced 6 months ago. Aside from tires, fresh brake pads and an oil change which I was about to do, my service advisor diagnosed and fully examined the vehicle and here is exactly and only what it needs: Nothing more. He explained these are not critically urgent items that need to be replaced, but for best performance, they should be done within the next 6 months. Vacuum Lines - $20 @ any auto parts store Brake Booster Hose - $87 OEM Part # 7L6611931AN jimellisvwparts website Stepper Motor - $465 OEM Part # 0AD341601C koperformance website All used vehicles will need something, they always do, at least here you know exactly what it is. No surprises, no excuses, no disappointments, just a good car that will not let you down. With everything I have disclosed, this vehicle runs excellent and would still drive you across the US and back if you took it tomorrow morning. You can drive it anywhere. I guarantee it. (I WILL EITHER BUY THE STEPPER MOTOR OR THE TIRES w INSTALLATION FOR THE WINNING BIDDER) Please let me know which you prefer at end of listing. I have disclosed all known issues and described this vehicle to the best of my ability, please feel free to call Dan @ 305-495-1942 if you have any additional questions I have not addressed. I am happy to help. Thank you for your consideration. |

Suzuki and VW finalize their divorce
Thu, Feb 11 2016The rocky divorce between Suzuki and Volkswagen is finally over after working its way through the International Court of Arbitration since 2011, according to the Japan Times. In the final settlement to end the companies' disputes, Suzuki agreed to pay VW an undisclosed amount for not living up to the agreement to use the German automaker's diesel engines. While they won't disclose the exact sum, Suzuki said in a statement that the money "will not have any significant impact" on its 2015 fiscal year results, which will end in March. The arbitration court took the biggest step to end this transcontinental partnership in August 2015 when the body ruled VW needed sell its 19.9-percent stake in Suzuki. However, the Japanese company wasn't entirely off the hook because VW was still allowed to sue for damages over the diesel engine issue. This latest decision finally clears up that dispute. Like most marriages, the union between VW and Suzuki began with stars in both parties' eyes. The Germans paid $2.8 billion to buy 19.9 percent of the Japanese company in December 2009. VW was supposed to get greater access to the auto market in India, and Suzuki hoped to capitalize on access to its partner's advanced technology. By 2011, rumors started percolating that things were contentious behind closed doors. VW allegedly tried to assert control over Suzuki's operations, and the Japanese company reportedly wasn't happy with its access to the German tech. Suzuki even bought diesel engines from Fiat, rather than VW. Later that year, company CEO Osamu Suzuki announced he would end the alliance, and they started working through arbitration. Notification Concerning Resolution of Arbitration by Settlement As Suzuki has reached a settlement regarding the arbitration that Suzuki filed with the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce on 24 November 2011, Suzuki informs you of the following: 1. History from the Request for Arbitration to the Settlement As announced in the "Notification Concerning Arbitration Award" dated 30 August 2015, the Tribunal indicated that it would address the issue of alleged damages arising from Suzuki's breach of the agreement claimed by Volkswagen AG ("VW") in a further stage of the arbitration proceedings. Suzuki reached a settlement with VW in regard to such arbitration proceedings on 10 February 2016. Accordingly, the arbitration proceedings have been concluded. 2.
Recharge Wrap-Up: Tesla, CarCharging and the EPA
Sat, Aug 23 2014Credit Suisse analysts are bullish on Tesla. The group gives the electric car company's stock an "outperform" rating with a target price of $325. For its continued success, Credit Suisse cites the vehicles' superior technology, in turn offering more torque, roominess and reliability. Says analyst Dan Galves said of Tesla's competition with ICEs, "If Tesla can get to cost-parity with Internal Combustion vehicles and still offer $1,400 to $2,500 per year fuel savings to the consumer, it won't be a fair fight." Read more at Yahoo Finance or at Business Insider. In other Tesla news, Tesla Model S owners will be able to unlock and start their car using an iPhone. The Tesla app is adding this functionality soon, perhaps with the update to iOS 8. It's not yet clear how this function will work, but it's one more innovative convenience feature that Model S owners can enjoy. That means drivers will have less to carry in their pockets or purses when they go for a drive. Read more at 9 to 5 Mac. CarCharging Group has remotely lowered the amperage on some of its residential users' Blink charging stations to 24 amps. This will slow down the charging time for affected customers with 6.6-kilowatt charging by about 15 percent. The company cited safety reasons for the move, with concerns about overheating. The amperage reduction is temporary, until CarCharging is able to provide replacement parts for the chargers. Some are concerned about the delayed action, as well as the fact that the reduction was handled without owner permission. Read more at Plugin Cars. Ford is halting test drives and sales of certain C-Max hybrid and Focus models due to a safety concern. Cars made during a single week this month at a Michigan factory may not have enough ball bearings in the steering gear assembly, which could lead to loss of control. None of the affected cars have been sold, Ford says, and about 50 units are currently at dealerships. Just over 600 will need to be recalled. Dealerships have been notified of the problem. Read more at Reuters and the The Detroit News. A new EPA report shows that urban air in the US is becoming less toxic since the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990. The report shows a 66-percent reduction in benzene, almost 60 percent reduction in mercury from man-made sources, 84 percent less lead and more.
