This car runs perfect, and has completely straight body with no dings, excellent paint (some rock chips on the hood) with still bright clear coat, good clean upholstery, new full-size spare tire, CD and cassette/FM high fidelity sound. The weathered headlight assembles were replaced new to give it that "showroom" glow. We average 34 mpg, with 42 mpg on trips to the coast. We just bought a new diesel and it is time to sell the Passat after enjoying it for the last 80,000 miles. Remember, it is a used car. Free AUTOCHECK!"

This 2005 TDI wagon needs absolutely no repairs or conditioning and has had oil and filter changes every 10,000 miles using only genuine Total Quartz 504/507 5/30w oil and German made Mann filters. If you are a TDI lover you know what I'm talking about. If not, it just means that with this maintenance these engines easily go 300,000 miles. 
The car has 139,998 miles on it.
All of the following maintenance have been serviced recently: New constant velocity joints, rubber boots, front wheel bearings, brake pads, fluid and rotors, alignment, new tension pulley, all new belts, glow plugs, and all new under cowlings, and a new hood liner. 
The timing belt and water pump were all replaced at 90,000 miles. The  battery and  tires are 75% new (Les Schwab, 80,000 mile all-season radials). This car has always run perfectly, and has a completely straight body with no dings, no accidents, excellent paint (some rock chips on the hood) with still bright clear coat, good clean upholstery, new full-size spare tire, CD and cassette/FM high fidelity sound. The hazy headlight assembles were replaced new 2 years ago to give the headlights that crystal clear "showroom" glow. Nothing needs to be done to this car. I have always used a MightyVac pump to change the oil and filter from the top without getting dirty and without having to go under the car or remove the cowlings, and I can describe how you can DIY and save lots of money. The only reason I had the cowlings replaced is because the one time I had Jiffy Lube do the job they did not put them back on correctly and they fell off on the highway!!!
We average 34 mpg to and from work, with 42 mpg on trips to the coast (62 mph speed limit) and 38 mpg on summer trips to the Columbia Gorge (70 mph speed limit). We just bought a new SUV diesel and it is time to sell the Passat after enjoying it for the last 80,000 miles. Remember,  it's in great condition but it is a used car and has minor blemishes accumulated over the last 139000 miles. Thanks for looking.

US prepares to sue Fiat Chrysler over diesel emissions testing

Thu, May 18 2017

NEW YORK - The Justice Department plans to file a civil lawsuit against Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV over excess diesel emissions as early as this week if no agreement is reached with the Italian-American automaker, two sources briefed on the matter said on Wednesday. The Environmental Protection Agency in January accused FCA of illegally using undisclosed software to allow excess diesel emissions in about 104,000 cars and SUVs, the result of a probe that stemmed from regulators' investigation of rival Volkswagen AG. The EPA and California Air Resources Board have been in talks with FCA about the excess emissions and whether the agencies would approve the sale of 2017 FCA diesel models. A federal judge in California has set a May 24 hearing on a series of lawsuits filed by owners of vehicles against Fiat Chrysler and the Justice Department is expected to file its action by then if no agreement is reached. FCA said on Wednesday it believed that any litigation would be "counterproductive" to ongoing discussions with the EPA and California Air Resources Board. The company added that "in the case of any litigation, FCA US will defend itself vigorously, particularly against any claims that the company deliberately installed defeat devices to cheat U.S. emissions tests." The Justice Department took the same procedural step in early 2016 against Volkswagen, nearly four months after the German company admitted using software to emit excess diesel emissions in nearly 500,000 vehicles. The Justice Department has had an ongoing criminal investigation into FCA's conduct since last year, Reuters reported in January. The probe has turned up internal emails written in Italian and other documents about engine development and emissions issues, sources briefed on the probe said. U.S. regulators said FCA failed to disclose engine management software in 104,000 U.S. 2014-2016 Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Ram 1500 trucks with 3.0-liter diesel engines. The European Commission has launched legal action against Italy for failing to respond to allegations of emission-test cheating by Fiat Chrysler in a procedure that could lead to the country being taken to court. The EPA has said the maximum possible fine against FCA could be $4.6 billion. In February, FCA said it had received requests for information and subpoenas from U.S. federal and state authorities, including the Securities and Exchange Commission, for diesel issues.

Volkswagen Group names Paefgen head of classics program

Tue, 04 Oct 2011

You may remember the name Franz-Josef Paefgen. Until recently, the German engineer and executive was head of both Bentley and Bugatti. Before that he was chief executive of Audi, after working for several years at Ford. He technically "retired" earlier this year, but like the cars he helped create, an executive like Paefgen could never really retire. So it should come as little surprise that the Volkswagen Group has named Dr. Paefgen head of its Classic program.
In his new capacity, Paefgen will oversee the historic automobile activities of the entire VW Group, including those of Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Audi, Lamborghini, and of course Bentley and Bugatti. It strikes us as a suitable semi-retirement for the man responsible in no small part for the Bugatti Veyron and Bentley Mulsanne, to name just two, and who was decorated in 2006 by the ACO as the "Spirit of Le Mans" for his contribution to endurance racing. Read the official announcement after the break.

VW internal investigation finds 'no evidence' against suspended engineers

Tue, Oct 6 2015

Volkswagen is still working out the chain of events that led to emissions-evading software being installed in 11 million diesel vehicles worldwide and deciding who was responsible for the treachery. So far, the German automotive giant's internal investigation hasn't publicly named many suspects, and three suspended executive-level engineers have been found not to be culpable in the wrongdoing, according to an anonymous insider speaking to Reuters. VW knows that the software began being installed in the EA 189 engine in 2008. The internal investigation has found that the emissions-evading tech was created because the powerplant was found to fail US standards. Plus, the diesel mill wasn't meeting cost targets, according to Reuters. The automaker responded by suspending over 10 employees, but three top engineers among them might not have been involved. Those put on leave include Heinz-Jakob Neusser from VW, Ulrich Hackenberg from Audi, and Wolfgang Hatz who led Porsche's research and group-wide engine development. The internal detective work hasn't turned up any evidence against these three men. In addition to VW's own inquires, government investigators in both the US and Germany are taking a serious look into the company's actions, too. So far, the automaker is setting aside about $7.3 billion to pay to fix the vehicles with the evasive software. Depending on what authorities find, the costs could grow quickly. Beyond the financial implications, the scandal has led to a serious shakeup in VW's corporate structure. Related Video:
