Up for sale is my 2002 VW Passat GLX V6 with 160k miles on it. Car has had one owner and has been serviced by VW since new.

Pennsylvania car, no rust whatsoever. Runs excellent. Shifts flawlessly. No check engine lights or anything like that. Steering is tight, suspension has no clunks or vibration, handles like a new Passat. Every possible option including heated leather, CD, Monsoon sound system, sunroof, and even power mirrors that fold in automatically when you park. Has all original keys and manuals. Had the timing and waterpump done, along with a transmission flush at 105k at the VW dealer in PA. Interior is excellent as seen in the pictures. Seats have little to no wear, and appears as if no one ever sat in the backseat. Exterior is great for the year/mileage. Has dents and dings, scratches, but no rust and as you can see in the pictures for what it is it looks great. I just had the car detailed including a compound of the paint, leather conditioned, they even 'restored' the headlights which was an extra $40. The car has a brand new drivers window regulator ($110) and battery ($140) this past week alone.

If I didn't just buy a new truck and was going to keep this car, I would have two things done:

-One was recommended by VW and is a Valve Cover Gasket at the next oil change, which has been done before but apparently it's a common maintenance item for VW's. I was quoted $130 from a local shop.

-The other is to reprogram what's called the P71 flap, which controls the heat/A/C mixture in the glovebox. The A/C has been working intermittently since the battery was replaced, and I was told the P71 flap motor has to be re-programmed by Volkswagen to the tune of $36. Apparently because the battery was dead for more than 48 hours, it lost it's default setting and needs to be flashed.

Again I'm being as picky as possible to give a detailed description to out of state buyers who can't come to look at the car before bidding. Books for over $4,300 in good shape. The car is located in Rome, NY and I can be reached on my cell anytime for questions at (315) 464-0636.

$500 Non-refundable deposit due within 48hrs of auction end, full payment due within 5 days. Bid with confidence as I have 100% feedback. Please call with any questions or shipping quotes. Thanks and good luck bidding.

Bentley Bentayga bodies to be built in Bratislava

Sun, Apr 12 2015

Volkswagen's plant in Bratislava, Slovakia, has come a long way. After getting its start in 1971 by subcontracting the production of Skoda-branded vehicles, the plant was purchased by VW in 1991, where it was quickly put to further good use as it began producing Volkswagen Passat models for export. More recently, Bratislava has become a bastion for SUVs, assembling the Audi Q7 and Porsche Cayenne, in addition to the VW Touareg. Color us unsurprised, then, to learn that the Bentley Bentayga, which will be built atop the same large SUV platform as its cousins from Audi, Porsche and VW, will also be used for at least part of the production of Bentley's first SUV. Surely, though, one of the hallmarks of the Bentley brand is that its cars are handmade in England. Won't the Bentley-buying populace feel slighted by production in Slovakia? Not to worry. As is the case with the Porsche Cayenne, all that will be produced in Slovakia is the Bentayga's body. According to a report from Automotive News, bodies for the Bentayga will be shipped from Bratislava to Crewe, England, where they will be finished into fully operational vehicles. In order to accommodate the additional work, VW will reportedly invest 500 million euros into the plant in Slovakia and hire hundreds of workers.

Dyno run hints VW GTI power might be significantly underrated

Wed, Feb 4 2015

Are you one of the lucky owners of the 2015 Volkswagen GTI? If yes, you should be happy, because your 210- or 220-horsepower hot hatchback might actually have more like 260 ponies under its hood. That's according to a dyno test from a vendor on, of all places, a Ford Focus ST enthusiast forum. The company is estimating a 15-percent drivetrain loss with the GTI's best result a whopping 263 horsepower and 314 pound-feet of torque at the crank. That's a tremendous difference from the 210 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque that Volkswagen claims. Of course, this is merely one dyno session on one car. We'll have to wait until more 2015 GTI owners get on the rolling road to see if Volkswagen really was as conservative about its hot hatch's output as FocusST.org claims.
