2011 Volkswagen Jetta Sportwagen Tdi Automatic One Owner, Heated Seats on 2040-cars

Year:2011 Mileage:28000
Location:

Currently putting my beloved car up for sale. My wife and I purchased it brand in in 2011 when we moved to Boston from New York. We will be moving back to New York City for a job opportunity, so sadly, the car needs to be sold. 

The car has lived an easy life so far, we walk to work, so the car has never seen a rush hour. About 95% of the mileage is from long distance highway trip to visit family in New York and Ohio. It's a non smoker car as well. We are the original owners, and has been very well cared for (I'm an ex auto technician) and have all service documented. She drives extremely well and is the best car I've eve owned.

You can look up the specs and reviews of this car through Google, very impressive.

It comes with the original carpeted floor mats and the rubber plastic ones as well.

Comes with 2 keys fobs. The 30,000 mile service was just done, and a check over was done by Volkswagen.

The photos were taken right after I cleaned the car myself. Please know, while the car is still for sale, I may use it for chores around town. Also, the car is parked on city streets, so it's likely it won't be spotless if you want to come look at it. I can wash before you pick up.

The car has minor dings, scratches or maybe a minor minor dent on it. Mostly from small bumps from shopping carts in parking lots. Also, there's an army of homeless people that search my neighborhood in search of bottles and cans. They often bump their cars into the back of cars, please see picture of back bumper. Most of which can certainly be buffed out with ease. overall, she's a beautiful car. Please see pictures, they show the worst of the minor imperfections. 

Also, please see picture that shows between front and back passenger side doors. There is some kind of rub mark on the trim. I had the car parked for most of the summer and a branch from a tree was rubbing on it and you can see minor marks from this. I don't know what process it takes to get this out. Also look at passenger side mirror picture, the same happened here.

Also, see picture of one of the tires have a small piece missing from side wall. Likely from hitting curb. I had checked out at goodyear, and they said it's just cosmetic. But please understand I cannot guarantee this. Please check out for yourself.

The only reason I'm selling is because having a car in New York City is impracticable. I originally planned on owning her forever. 

Heated seats keep your bottom nice and warm as well.

I have all service records including the 10k, 20k, and 30k services (30K was just done). Alone with everything that car has been done.

 Vehicle carries the factory 36,000 mile warranty and 50,000 powertrain warranty, please see VW for details. This warranty is through Volkswagen, not me.

This car was purchased in Ohio and is in my wife's name. It is currently registered in Massachusetts and please understand Mass. DMV laws before buying. The vehicle does not come with plates, I will need to personally surrender them to the DMV after the sale.


  
 I have all title in hand and they is clean and free of any previous liens as pointed out on those lame car reports.

 
When you look at any vehicle, please use some basic common sense and think it over.. Do you really want the car ? Is it only about the cheapest one you can find ? Ebay bottom feeders are all over the place.. Do you really want a good car well represented or are you just trolling the bottom interested in price only ?? Or do you want a good car for a good deal that is fair to both parties. If you want a great car from a great owner at a fair price, let's talk. If you're expecting on buying then trying to haggle over petty things, please don't bother.

As someone who used to be an auto tech at a car dealership, I recommend you buy from private sellers. Carfax reports are a joke and so many cars at dealerships were damaged and they never tell you. I'm not hiding any imperfections and I'm being 100% clear about the car.

I am a private seller, but I am willing to work with your schedule and with the trucking company you desire. But keep in mind, I do have a day job, I am not a full time auto seller.

 
Also I am sorry to report that we do not have temp tags in this Massachusetts. I don't know why.

Buy is now price is below Blue Book Value. I'm doing this for quick and smooth transaction for both of us.

It also has bluetooth and xm radio.







The following pictures show the imperfections as mentioned in description:






On the following picture, the purple spot on the bumper is just a reflection from the camera and is not damage on the bumper:

Italian investigators search Lambo headquarters in VW probe

Thu, Oct 15 2015

Italian investigators searched Lamborghini headquarters on Oct. 15 to look for evidence of managers' involvement in Volkswagen's emissions cheating. VW's main office in Verona was also inspected, according to Reuters. Lamborghini is owned by Volkswagen, and Lambo in turn is listed as the owner of VW Group Italia. Authorities wanted to find out if employees were conscious that the vehicles were skirting emissions rules. "It is one thing if I sell water and pretend it's wine, but if I sell water believing it is wine it's different." Verona chief prosecutor Mario Giulio Schinaia said to Reuters. Italian newspaper Gazetta del Sud reported that several managers in Italy were under investigation for alleged fraud. Prosecutors in Germany have also been rigorously investigating VW, and they recently staged a similar raid on the company's headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany. The automaker reportedly turned over documents and other data relating to the software defeat device. Meanwhile, VW's internal investigation has turned up little wrongdoing, though a recent leak suggested otherwise, and at least 30 managers could have known about the defeat device. The automaker has disputed that figure. Volkswagen of America CEO Michael Horn testified before Congress that he believed only a few individuals were involved. The situation hasn't been easy on VW in the US, either. The Department of Justice has also been pursuing an investigation into the automaker. Plus, state attorneys general are filing lawsuits against the company for defrauding customers. VW has until Nov. 20 to explain a repair for the problem to the California Air Resources Board.

Bosch fuel pumps spark recall of 2015 Golf, GTI and Audi A3

Tue, Apr 28 2015

A few weeks ago, BMW and Nissan both issued recalls for some of their vehicles to replace Bosch-supplied fuel pumps. The pumps had nickel plating that could flake off and cause a failure. Volkswagen Group is the latest automaker to be affected by the problem and has a campaign for the 2015 Audi A3, VW Golf and GTI. In total, 6,204 units of these models are in need of repair. The problem with the VW Group vehicles is identical to the previous recalls. It's possible for the pump's nickel plating to come off and cause increased friction. Eventually, this can result in the component's failure. According to documents from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF, here), there are no reports of accidents or injuries from this issue in the VW Group models. Bosch spokesperson Linda Beckmeyer tells Autoblog that these vehicles don't all necessary share an identical fuel pump, but the parts all use the same plating process. The problem also prompted repairs of the 2014 Ford Escape several months ago, she indicated. When asked if the issue could prompt more campaigns, Beckmeyer said that she "can't speak to that" because automakers decide on the recalls. Owners should receive notice of the problem soon, but according to the NHTSA documentation, there currently aren't enough pumps to fix all of these vehicles. "Bosch is working closely with automakers regarding replacement parts," Beckmeyer said. When available, dealers will replace the components free of charge for affected customers.

SUMMARY: Volkswagen Group of America, Inc. (Volkswagen) is recalling certain model year 2015 Volkswagen Golf, GTI, and Audi A3 vehicles. Improper nickel plating of components within the fuel pump may result in the fuel pump failing. CONSEQUENCE: If the fuel pump fails, the vehicle will not start, or if the engine is running, it will stop and the vehicle will stall, increasing the risk of a crash. REMEDY: Volkswagen will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the vehicles and replace any affected fuel pumps, free of charge.

When Android Automotive goes in the dash, Google wins — and automakers lose data

Tue, May 22 2018

You've gotta hand it to Google for the way the Silicon Valley tech giant has made indelible inroads into the car on multiple fronts. The most obvious is with its pioneering self-driving car technology that's caused car companies to get their act together on autonomous vehicles — and also collaborate with Google. Google has more directly extended its influence and data-mining capabilities into the car with its Android Auto smartphone-projection platform that most major automakers have adopted along with Apple's CarPlay. And now it's preparing to dig even deeper into dashboards by deploying its open-source operating system, Android Automotive, beginning with Audi and Volvo. Volvo recently announced that its next-generation Sensus infotainment system will run Android Automotive as an OS and include Google's Play Store for cloud-based content, Maps for navigation and Google Assistant for voice recognition, which can even command a car's climate control. By embedding Google in the dash, Volvo says owners will get an improved connected experience. "Bringing Google services into Volvo cars will accelerate innovation in connectivity and boost our development in applications and connected services," Volvo senior vice president of R&D Henrik Green said in a statement. "Soon, Volvo drivers will have direct access to thousands of in-car apps that make daily life easier and the connected in-car experience more enjoyable." Having Android Automotive onboard could benefit drivers — and provide a big win for Google, since it opens a deep and lucrative new data-mining vein for the company. But it's a wave of a white flag for car companies when it comes to delivering their own cloud-based content and services. It also represents a massive data giveaway and, for Audi, a reversal of earlier reservations about letting Google get too much access to car data. Not long after Android Auto and Apple CarPlay were introduced in 2014 and most automakers eagerly embraced the technologies, several German automakers second-guessed their decision when they realized what was at stake: data. At a conference in Berlin in 2015, Audi CEO Rupert Stadler said car owners "want to be in control of their data, and not subject to monitoring." A few months earlier, Stadler stated that "the data that we collect is our data and not Google's.
