 2004 Volkswagen Golf TDI PD Diesel


Up for sale is my 2004 VW Golf TDI PD. I bought this vehicle several years ago in place of a 2007 Prius. I originally sold my Prius because despite it being a great vehicle, this actually got better fuel economy and was by far more fun to drive. I purchased it at that time with a salvage title with approximately 60k miles. I am a certified ASE Master Tech and have performed all maintenance myself. It has had religious oil changes as are recommended with the higher end and rare PD engine. Always using oil that is 505.01 spec , Pentosin Brand to be specific. During the time I have had the car I have made some tweaks. It currently sits on Porsche 911 Twist style wheels ($700), has Bilstein Performance Shocks and Struts ($600), H&R Lowering Springs ($300), Seibon Carbon Hood custom painted to match with Aerocatch hood latches ($2,000), MK5 R32 Style Front End ($400), Euro Glass Headlights ($250), Leather Seat Conversion from MK4 Jetta with Power Front Seats ($800), Pre Wire for Escort/Valentine One Radar Detector, Black Headliner and several other small bits done here and there. This is the only year of the Golf MK4 which offered the higher output TDI PD engine as well. My main reason for buying this specific car.

 Unfortunately, last month on my way to work, a gentleman decided to make a left from the oncoming lane into the drivers rear door. This pushed me off the road somewhat and caused the shown body damage.

At this time, the front bumper has a crack in the lower lip, right front fender lightly dented, drivers door scratched, drivers rear door is dented and would need replacement unless you are handy with body work, the left C Pillar area is dented and will require body work to repair and the rear bumper cover is torn. Obviously, the left rear wheel is scuffed however still spins straight. I have already picked the vehicle up and checked underbody for damage and found none aside from alignment being needed now due to the total toe being out of spec on the rear and steering slightly off center from the left side wheel impact. Obviously as you can see from the inside, I have taken very good care of the car. Im in many ways sad to see it go however I frankly do not have the time right now to repair it and need the funds for much more important manners (ill family).

It regularly got 40+MPG often returning 600 Plus miles per tank. Prior to the accident, it didn't have any mechanical issues. In fact, after the accident I drove it for another week until I was able to finish engine work on my other vehicle. It is driveable in this condition should you not want to perform the body repairs BUT an alignment WILL be needed to correct the rear toe.

KBB on the vehicle places its value currently at $8,131. Given the fact that I could part it out for a substantial amount im not looking for lowballs despite the body damage. For anyone in the body repair field, this would be an excellent deal. If you have any questions please email, or text 828 275 9681 and I will be more than happy to send additional photos, answer questions, etc. Title is in hand.

In general, I will not ship this. If you need it shipped, you are free to make arrangements and I will work with your shipper when they come to get it. I will only accept cashiers check (certified funds) or cash in person, cash preferably.


Thank you for your time.

Recharge Wrap-up: Mercedes gets F1 efficiency, EV charging in Vermont, VW e-Golf to use Bosch

Mon, Jul 14 2014

Efficiency equals performance, especially in the case of Formula 1 racing. The Mercedes AMC Petronas team points to several key efficiency technologies it uses to get the most out of its cars. And if their utter dominance so far this season is testament to this relationship, perhaps we should pay attention. Mercedes highlights hybrid tech, turbocharging, aerodynamics, lightweight construction, tribology (both in making internal components and lubricants more slippery) and simulation as crucial to getting around the track faster than anyone else. These just happen to be some of the same things that make the cars we drive on public roads more fuel-efficient. Learn more in the press release below. It's a good read. Brammo, maker of sweet electric motorcycles, is teaming up with TEAM Industries to make drivetrains for electric vehicles. TEAM, which specializes in drivetrain technology, will also become an investor in Brammo as part of the partnership. "The electric vehicle market is a growth market," says TEAM CEO and President David Ricke, "and TEAM and Brammo will be providing a wide range of solutions for OEM manufacturers." Read more over at EV World. Vermont celebrated the installation of a new EV charging station as part of a Green Energy Corridor between Boston and Montreal. When finished, drivers will be able to make the whole trip in an EV with access to charging along the way. For $5, customers can charge their vehicle in about 30 minutes at the Red Hen Baking Company in Middlesex. There are currently only about 700 EVs on the road in Vermont. The state has a goal to get 90 percent of its energy from renewable sources by 2050, and getting more EVs on the road is crucial to that mission. Vermont hopes that expanding the charging infrastructure will convince more people to go electric. Read more at Vermont Public Radio's website. For it's new e-Golf, Volkswagen will use Bosch chargers for home installation and ChargePoint stations at its dealerships. Bosch will have various 240-volt options for the home, and will also provide installation. e-Golf customers will also get a free ChargePoint membership, and will have access to the company's network of charging stations worldwide. The 2015 e-Golf goes on sale in the US later this year. Read more in the press release below.

Volkswagen Routan dead, pour out a sippy cup for your little homies

Thu, 28 Mar 2013

America's minivan wolfpack has just gotten smaller by one. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen officials have confirmed what we've suspected for some time - the Routan is dead. Essentially a lightly reworked version of the Dodge Grand Caravan, the Routan actually hasn't been rolling off of Chrysler's Windsor, Ontario production line at all this year, but VW had yet to confirm its discontinuation. However, Jonathan Browning, CEO of VW America, has reportedly admitted that the Routan is being axed, with remaining units expected to be funneled into corporate functions for "internal purposes."
The move isn't unexpected - the Routan has never been a big seller, with just 57,650 examples moved since sales began in 2008 - peak yearly sales totaled under 16,000 units, and that was back in 2010. And while many have talked of the minivan segment shrinking, Automotive News points out that the segment actually grew 14 percent last year to 597,118 units, though it should be noted that most segments have been on sales upticks as the US economy chugs out of its recession.
So, is volume-crazy Volkswagen prepared to pass on large family vehicle sales? Probably not - the German automaker has signaled that it plans to build a three-row crossover in North America soon, and we wouldn't be surprised if it looks an awful lot like the Crossblue Concept from January's Detroit Auto Show - minus the fancy plug-in diesel powertrain.

Volkswagen drops "GTi" lawsuit against Suzuki

Tue, 02 Oct 2012

Way back in 2004, Volkswagen took umbrage with Suzuki being granted permission to use the nameplate "SWIFT GTi" for a performance variant of its small-car offering (2012 equivalent seen here). Now, eight years and surely some very steep legal bills later, VW has finally dropped its claim against Suzuki.
The General Court of the European Union stated, back in March of this year, that Suzuki's GTi registration could not be confused with VW's "Golf GTI." Volkswagen had appealed that ruling, though has now reportedly called off the dogs. In fact, Germany's Die Welt reports that the appeal has been dead for several weeks now.
This news comes amongst continued arbitration acrimony between the two automakers, all revolving around VW's forced divestiture of nearly 20-percent stake it purchased in Suzuki some two years ago.
