2005 Volkswagen Passat Gls Sedan 4-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Saint-Edouard-de-Napierville, Quebec, Canada
|
Up for sale here we have a Passat TDI 2005, 2.0L Direct Injection Diesel with 5 speed automatic transmission. It currently has 171000 miles or 273000km. Mechanically there is nothing wrong with the car, everything functions as intended with no exceptions including the A/C. I personally replaced the Timing belt, all idlers and water pump on the car so it is good for another 60k miles. Oil change has been done with proper 5w40 Synthetic oil from Germany. The alternator is very recent, one of the CV axles as well. The brakes have more than 80% life left, tires are also ok for another year or so. The transmission had also some issues which were corrected, i had the valve body rebuilt (bill can be provided ~800$) and I replaced the B clutch assembly (reverse gear) which is prone to failure. The transmission has also been cleaned up internally and new oil and filter put in. I did most of the repairs myself, I do all maintenance on my personal cars with meticulous care and attention to detail. The Passat also comes with a small trailer hitch and wiring already installed.
The interior is clean no stains, or tears in the leather, it is a non-smoker car, carpets are also very clean. The only few imperfections on the car are: -Small bubbled paint spot on driver's side door under trim -Piece of trim missing on rear left door and signs of bubbled paint under trim -Tiny spot of bubbled paint on rear left fender arch -Front bumper has a parking lot scratch -Few tiny stone chip locations on top of windscreen, they have been touched up with same color paint to prevent rust. Note: These cars carry a 12 year unlimited mileage anti-corrosion warranty, it is highly likely the rust issues will be covered. If you want more information please contact your local VW dealer. The winning bidder also will get a set of summer brand new original Schwaben carpets and the already in car Monster type winter mats. I will also include a set of winter tires made by Nokian in Finland (75% life left), mounted on 15" steel rims. The car is located in Quebec, Canada at very close proximity to the Champlain NY border. It can be exported, the same car was sold in the USA as well, but as usual please check with local DMV and US Customs what this involves. If you are looking for a very comfortable, quiet, large and ECONOMIC car then look no further as there is no car that will compare with the fuel economy of TDI Diesels. Also rest assured that with proper maintenance these cars do not lose their value as compared to their gasoline counterparts. I have a local listing for this car as well, and reserve the right to end this auction at any time. If you have any questions please ask before bidding. Serious bidders only. |

Volkswagen planning Up! hybrid model using XL1 powertrain
Sun, 24 Feb 2013Even though we've finally gotten a look at the production version of the 261-mile per gallon Volkswagen XL1, this aero-shaped two-seater was never intended for high-volume sales. Fortunately, it sounds like the same isn't true for the car's diesel plug-in hybrid powertrain, which, according to a report from AutoCar, could make its way under the hood of another Volkswagen model: the Up! minicar (shown above).
A potential Up! Hybrid would likely be able to return some of the same impressive fuel economy numbers as the XL1, but it would be a more realistic car with more passenger space and greater production capacity. The hand-built XL1 will use a 47-horsepower, two-cylinder TDI engine paired to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and the 27-hp electric motor and lithium-ion battery helps deliver an all-electric driving range of 31 miles.
One of the core pillars of the XL1's design is its lightweight construction with a 1752-pound curb weight, which makes the Up! a perfect recipient for using this powertrain since it weighs just 300 pounds more. The report says that the Up! Hybrid is still in the developmental phase, so a production version isn't expected for at least another 18 months.
Carlex Criollo is a Volkswagen Multivan shrine to Alcantara, leather and... fish
Wed, 10 Jul 2013A keen angler recently went to Polish tuner Carlex Design (the same folks who did that steampunk Mini Countryman a while back) for a revamp of his Volkswagen Multivan. What resulted is perhaps the most striking - yet fishing-unfriendly - interior we've ever seen in a van. Below the shoulder line, if a surface isn't covered in cross-stitched Alcantara, then it's covered in cross-stitched leather. Even the steering wheel airbag boss. And the seat supports. And the cupholders.
The brown hue of the Multivan's interior is called Criollo, named for an especially fine specimen of cocoa. The finishing touch on the overhaul is a fileting knife that Carlex made for the owner. We imagine he'll use the knife for the marine life, but keep his van far away from it.
VW admits 430,000 2016 models have implausible CO2 ratings
Mon, Nov 16 2015Volkswagen finally explained more details about its CO2 rating scandal in Europe and admitted that 430,046 of the estimated 800,000 affected vehicles with "implausible" figures came from the 2016 model year. They included some from Audi, Seat, Skoda, VW, and VW Commercial Vehicles, according to the automaker's list (as a PDF). The problem mostly impacts diesel engines, but the inventory also shows some gasoline mills. VW will next determine the accurate CO2 emissions for these vehicles, and the German Federal Vehicle and Transport Authority will supervise that process to ensure the data's veracity. The automaker will also launch websites in Europe to let owners enter their model's VIN to check whether it's affected. Because governments there often link vehicle taxes and CO2 production, the company promises to work with regulators in each country to cover any fees that result from the inaccurate figures. VW announced the CO2 scandal earlier in November and estimated the equivalent of $2.2 billion to fix it at the time. A later report claimed that a group of engineers were responsible for fabricating the emissions data. They allegedly couldn't meet reduction goals from Martin Winterkorn, and between 2013 and this spring the workers did things like overinflate the tires during testing to achieve the desired results. VW is also closer to a fix in the diesel emissions scandal. According to an anonymous insider to Bloomberg, the company has a repair for the 1.6-liter engine that's reportedly neither very complex nor expensive. German regulators would still need to approve the solution before it could roll out to owners. Next step in clarifying the CO2 issue Affected Volkswagen Group models of the current model year have been identified Customers being informed via website Discussions with the authorities have begun The Volkswagen Group reports that the vehicles of the 2016 model year affected by the CO2 issue have been identified. There is thus now clarity about the new vehicles of the current model year out in the marketplace. On 3 November 2015, the Group had already reported that irregularities may have arisen in determining the CO2 figures for type approval of around 800,000 vehicles. This was identified during its own currently ongoing investigations and had been made public. The internal investigations into the current vehicles of the 2016 model year provide results for narrowing down the actually affected vehicles with implausible CO2 figures.
