HI! 
Up for sale I have a 2005 TURBO DIESEL VW Passat. I have owned this car for 3 years. I am the third owner. Since I have owned the car I have fixed everything that has or could go wrong. 

Mechanically:
this car runs and drives VERY smooth. The transmission was replaced and installed NEW in 2012. $4000 (receipt to prove) all work done by VW. Next, I replaced the notorious (for this year) Camshaft. Since I had the head off this car I replaced all valves, guides, and followers essentially a BRAND NEW head (1800$). I then replaced all belts, tensioners, and gaskets (intake/exhaust/valve cover) with brand new OEM equipment (all ordered from BORAparts.com). Brand new GATES timing belt, timing tensioner, serpentine belt, serpentine tensioner. Last I replaced the tires, brakes, and the starter ( the old starter was ok but slowly going out, the new one has a LT warranty from Oreilleys) The only other issue that I had was the flap motor (another notorious failure of this car) I replaced this with the new upgraded flap motor from BORAparts.com ($490). All of this work has been done within the last 5000 miles in my shop by Everett and Brett Palmer (please feel free to read up on either of them in TDI forums user name is diesales one of the best TDI Techs around). The last of the notorious BHW failures is the much controversial Balance Shaft issue. Brett Palmer pulled off the cover to the oil pump and verified the Balance Shaft is in PERFECT mechanical condition. Some cars have it but many do not. Many of these Passats that have over 300 even 400,000 miles with the original Balance shaft. I believe there was a bad "batch" of Passats that had this unfortunate Balance shaft issue. Rest assured, mine has been inspected by a TRUSTED Mechanic and has been cleared as mechanically perfect. Fresh oil, coolant as well as air filter oil filter fuel filter and cabin filter were all done within the last 5000 miles. The car had an alignment done within the last 10,000 miles and drives beautifully down the road. This car is ready for another 100,000 miles!!!!

Interior:
The interior of this car is a 8.5/10. The leather seats are still in great condition with no rips. The heated elements work great on both driver and passenger side. The carpet is VERY nice considering the mileage. The original carpet mats are still in VERY good condition as well. Monsoon stereo cd/tape player. Steering wheel controls for the stereo are an extra benefit to this car. Automatic windows and locks, as well as automatic sunroof. 

Exterior:
The paint on this car is absolutely beautiful. The previous owners took extremely well car of this vehicle. I have a two inch stack of maintenance paperwork that included EVERY 10,000 maintenance from 10,000 all the way to 190,000 and any replacement in between. The tires have 90% tread life left on 80,000 mile rated all season tires. These tires include transferable warranty thought discount tire. Equipped with ESP, in conjunction with the tires, there is nothing this car cant plow through rain or snow this winter season. The only flaw to the exterior is a 12 inch by 1 inch dent in the rear passenger door. 

This car needs NOTHING. Hop in and drive anywhere. Highway mileage is 42mpg, city is around 35mpg. This is a very luxurious Turbo Diesel car, in excellent condition. Car is currently located in Ida, MI (just north of Toledo, OH) Feel free to email or call with any questions. 419-345-1732

Weekly Recap: 2016 CTS-V gives Cadillac new momentum for the new year

Sat, Dec 27 2014

It's been a rough year for Cadillac. The historic luxury carmaker been in the news for all of the wrong reasons: Declining sales, ditching its advertising agency and the relocation of its headquarters from Detroit to New York. But in late December, Cadillac reminded everyone what it does best: Build some of the rawest and most compelling luxury sedans in the world, as evidenced by the 2016 CTS-V. This monster churns out 640 horsepower from a supercharged 6.2-liter V8. Sound familiar? That's the Corvette Z06 engine, and it makes this CTS the most powerful production Cadillac ever. It also puts the sporting divisions of the Germans on notice. The new CTS-V easily overpowers the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S 4Matic and its 5.5-liter biturbo V8 rated at 577 hp, and the BMW M5 (with the competition pack) and its 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 that pushes out 575 hp. The rear-wheel drive Cadillac can sprint to 60 miles per hour in 3.7 seconds, which is close to the 3.5-second time turned in by the 4Matic-driven E63 S, and a bit quicker than the 4.1 seconds posted by the M5. With Magnetic Ride Control, General Motors' stout eight-speed automatic transmission (also used in the Corvette), Brembo brakes and a carbon-fiber option package that pretty much builds your car out of carbon fiber – it's clear this Cadillac means business. Truth be told, we expected this CTS-V to deliver. It's been a serious sports sedan for a decade, and the recent generation and its 556-hp arrogance have been particularly memorable. But notice what we're doing here? We're talking about product. Not who makes Cadillac's ads, or if the brand's headquarters has a mailing address in NYC. Like the 2016 ATS-V that's due in the spring, the debut of the 2016 CTS-V (on sale in late summer) is a shot in the arm for Cadillac, and its arrival comes during time of transition. The brand is trying to reinvent itself as a modern luxury maker. It wants new customers, a different image and obviously more sales. Those things are going to take time, but with a 640-hp sledgehammer of a sports sedan on tap for next year, Cadillac can still maintain some of its swagger through all of the change. Other News And Views 1984 Audi Sport Quattro heads for the auction block If you're into '80s rally cars, you're really a car person. But if you're into that stuff – and we are – this 1984 Audi Sport Quattro is sure to get your blood flowing.

Volkswagen says goodbye to Eos, Routan in 2015 updates

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Usually automakers announce changes to their lineup individually on a vehicle-by-vehicle basis, but sometimes it all comes at once - especially when the changes are ones we either expected or might not otherwise notice. That's the path Volkswagen has gone with changes to its US lineup for 2015.
The biggest change is what we already knew: that the new Golf arrives for the 2015 model year, bringing with it the new GTI, Golf R, e-Golf and Golf SportWagen (to replace the previous Jetta wagon). But there are some new details as well.
For starters, Volkswagen has finally confirmed that both the Eos and the Routan - both long rumored to be on their way out - will be exiting this year. The Eos hardtop convertible, pictured above, will linger for one last year, its Sport trim replaced by a new Final Edition with 18-inch wheels, two-tone leather interior and enhanced equipment.

Skoda unveils Volkswagen Up!-based Citigo

Tue, 27 Sep 2011

This is the all-new Skoda Citigo, and if you're thinking that it looks rather familiar, that's because its Volkswagen-badged kin recently debuted at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. That's right, the long-rumored Skoda version of Volkswagen's new Up! city car has finally arrived.
Buyers will have a choice of two 1.0-liter three-cylinder engines - one with 59 horsepower, the other with a 74 hp and a blistering 106 mph top speed - both mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Powerful they are not, but these three-bangers should prove to be extremely efficient, with Skoda quoting fuel economy numbers of 62.8 and 60.1 miles per gallon, respectively (on the European cycle).
Being a Skoda, the Citigo will go on sale in its home market of the Czech Republic this fall, with the rest of Europe getting the car next summer. Follow the jump for Skoda's official release.
