97 Passat Tdi Diesel on 2040-cars
Marietta, Ohio, United States
|
You are looking at a nice 97 Passat tdi 5 speed. I have owned this car for around 8 years now and in that time it has been well maintained. The car has been garaged since I have owned it. Also I have run mobil 1 synthetic oil 5w40 and changed every 10,000 miles. The tires on the car are practically new purchased earlier this year. Also last year I replaced the headliner in the car because it was sagging. It has leather seats with aftermarket heaters in them which work good. The interior of the car is very clean with no rips or tears or stains and hasn't been smoked in. It has working a/c I replaced the compressor 2 years ago the heater works but it doesn't get real hot. The moonroof works good and all the windows work as they should also all the door handles work. The cruise control does not work hasn't worked since I bought it also the check engine light is on and has been for 8 years or so.The engine and transmission are in good shape timing belt and tensioners were changed last at 172,000 miles and the injector pump was resealed earlier this year. The exterior of the car is in good shape with some minor fading spots on the hood and clearcoat peeling on the rear wing also some rust on the right front fender I have takin pictures of these spots. The car averages 44-45 mpg and cruises down the road straight with no shimmy and stops smooth. I have installed keyless entry a few years ago which works great. I would trust this car anywhere without a second thought its very reliable. |

VW adding particulate filters to gas engines
Wed, Aug 3 2016Volkswagen is working hard to overcome the PR disaster that is its diesel emissions scandal, and part of its efforts is focusing, weirdly, on petrol engines. Starting in June 2017, the embattled German automaker will add particulate filters to the gas-powered Volkswagen Tiguan and Audi A5. The change will eventually impact nearly every direct-injected gas engine the VW Group makes. Audi? Particulate filter. Seat? Particulate filter. Even Bentley is going to get the tech, all in a bid to reduce soot emissions by 90 percent. In fact, by 2022 VAG expects 7 million of its vehicles to boast the emissions-cleaning tech, which has long been a fixture on diesel engines. "Following increases in efficiency and lower CO2 output, we are now bringing about a sustained reduction in the emission levels of our modern petrol engines by fitting particulate filters as standard," Volkswagen Group research and design boss Dr. Ulrich Eichhorn said in a statement. "In the future, all models will be equipped with the latest and most efficient SCR catalytic converter technology." VW's initial rollout focuses on the 1.4-liter, turbocharged Tiguan and the 2.0-liter, turbocharged A5. Considering the popularity of the 2.0-liter across the VW range, we'd expect it's only a matter of time before VW expands its particulate filters tech to additional gas-powered vehicles.

VW delivers first XL1 in Germany
Mon, Jun 9 2014Volkswagen has delivered the first XL1 diesel plug-in hybrid to a customer from Berlin, Germany. Dr. Christian Malorny received his Oryx White XL1 with black and grey interior from Volkswagen Germany's director of sales and marketing for passenger cars, Thomas Zahn, at the company's Transparent Factory in Dresden. The super-efficient XL1, which first debuted at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, is powered by a 0.8-liter, two-cylinder TDI engine and electric motor, with electricity supplied by a 5.5-kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Power is delivered to the rear wheels via a seven-speed DSG transmission. With a curb weight of 1,753 pounds and a drag coefficient of just 0.189, the XL1 is rated at 261 miles per gallon on the lenient European cycle. It is capable of traveling solely on electric power for up to 31 miles. "The XL1 has inspired me from the beginning and I am very pleased to now be driving my own," said Malorny, (translated). "With its visionary design and high-tech appearance, Volkswagen has dared something new and innovative." The futuristic XL1 seats two passengers, and can carry 4.2 cubic feet of cargo. It features a carbon fiber reinforced plastic body, and a low center of gravity. It is diminutive of stature, as you can see in the photo, measuring 153.1 inches long, 65.6 inches wide, and just 45.4 inches tall. It is being billed as the world's most efficient production car, but it's unlikely Dr. Malorny will be making his money back on fuel savings any time soon; despite the first sale and the vehicles appearing on the German VW site, Volkswagen has not officially announced the price tag for the XL1. In the past, we've heard it will cost approximately $145,000. Only 250 are being produced.
