1990 Vw Jetta GL DIESEL

198000 miles

5 speed

1.6 liter NON TURBO diesel ENGINE - ( NOT TDI )

Red body - gray interior

NO Sunroof model

Manual windows

14" tires that are not great but they are OK.

Body:

Im sure there is some rust some where but i dont see it as you can see in the pictures the panels are rust free - even the rear apron where they tend to rust - im sure there might be some on the undercarriage but this car is NOT rusty.

There is a dent in passenger fender - see picture - missing the trim piece as well

Dent in hood - one above driver headlight - smaller one closer to passenger headlight on the edge ( hard to see it in the pictures)

Dent in rear quarter panel driver side - again hard to see in the pics - but its there.

Paint on the top of the driver fender is " peeling " so that probably means it was repainted at some time.

Dent in lower valance by driver front tire - see pic..

Passenger side view mirror has ROUND mirror in place of factory square mirror

Both rear door handles do NOT work from outside

Driver door handle is weak and about to break as well.

But all the door open and lock manually

Windshield is good no big cracks or anything that stands out

Rear passenger tail light has a spider web crack in the center

I did just go back out to look at the windshield and noticed driver side lower part of windshield has a few small bubbles or rust - very very minor but it is there like on most older Mk2's

Missing the passenger side rear wheel center cap - this wheel also has a curb shot on it -

Engine / Mechanical :

Wanted to say first - that i do not know any history of this car - timing belt looks ok but no record of it being replaced.

Fires right up on first try. Sounds like a diesel.. First thing i notice is the glow plug light is always on - not sure what that means but it starts up everytime, i always wait a minute before starting it after turning key to accessory position.

Injection pump is what i believe they call a " high altitude " injection pump - similar to the older turbo pumps - it looks dry around fittings.

Battery looks new. Engine bay is pretty clean and doesnt looks like anything obvious is missing. AC does NOT work - all components are there maybe it needs charged up? Maybe it needs more? The Oil Dip Stick is held on with a bent up close hanger to hold it down , the only oil deposits i see are where the dip stick tube goes into the block there is alot of oil around the base of the dip stick tube.

Overall - get in and go - 70 MPH no problem.

Interior:

Dash has crack right down the middle. Missing both interior door mirror caps ( oh yes the passenger door mirror has some sort of round aftermarket in place of the factory glass ) Shift boot is tore up pretty bad. There is a TAPE player in the dash - but it does not work - does not even power up - i am going to check fuse and will update details if i get it to work. Seats are in great shape , as with the door panels. Missing passenger side sun visor. This is a NON-SUNROOF car so the headliner is all there and in decent shape as well. carpet is dirty and has stains but no big holes - its also missing the inner driver side front lower carpet trim piece that goes between the door and the carpet.

Forgot to mention that the driver side upper seat belt receiver on the driver door DOES NOT WORK - the lab belt works - but the receiver on the driver front door will not ACCEPT the shoulder belt - i am going to look to see if i have a spare one.

Located in Lincoln Nebraska 68516

Sold as is where is - do not see any reason why this can not be driven across the country. But it is a 23 year old Vw with almost 200k

VW Super Bowl teaser with Jimmy Cliff is like a less-mean Tosh.0 Web Redemption

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

Reggae super-duper-star and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Cliff has been using music to send positive vibes out into the universe for decades now, so its no surprise that his message on behalf of Volkswagen is one of redemption.
Dubbed Sunny Side, this web-spot is VW's warmup of sorts for what promises to be another blockbuster year in the world of Super Bowl commercials. Without giving away the game, the euphonious commercial sees Cliff opening his arms and his heart to some YouTube 'celebrities' that might see courser treatment from the likes of Tosh.0, for instance. We can't help but be reminded of Coca-Cola's legendary 1971 Hilltop spot with the "I'd like to buy the world a Coke" lyric, too.
Enjoy the pre-Super Bowl VW spot below, and don't forget to pay it forward... your karma will thank you. For those of you that just can't get enough of commercial-making magic, we've included a "making-of" video, as well.

Recharge Wrap-up: Toyota Prius airbag recall, Peugeot launches eU01s e-bike

Fri, Sep 16 2016

Toyota is recalling 7,600 Prius vehicles for an airbag issue. Certain examples of the 2016 Prius could have malfunctioning inflators that could cause the passenger side airbags to deploy accidentally. There are no known injuries from the faulty airbags, but Toyota says, "This has been observed when the vehicle is parked and unoccupied for a period of time." Toyota also says this issue is unrelated to the massive recall of airbags supplied by Takata. The automaker will contact affected owners to arrange free repairs. Read more at Automotive News. Peugeot is adding another e-bike to its portfolio with the eU01s. What sets this electrically assisted bicycle apart from both regular bikes and other pedelecs is its ability to propel the bike to 28 mph under electric power. It comes with either a 400- or 500-Wh lithium-ion battery, providing 47 or 59 miles of range, respectively. It also offers an optional on-board computer with its 4.3-inch screen, through which riders can customize the electric assistance, get directions, receive sports coaching, and connect their smartphone. Earlier this year, Peugeot also launched its e-Kick scooter and folding eF01 e-bike. Read more at Green Car Congress. BYD is expanding its manufacturing facility in the US. In the second of three phases for the plant, BYD is adding onto its factory in Lancaster, California, where it currently builds electric buses. The Chinese company plans to triple the number of employees, up from the current 400, as it expands the facility by 40,000 square feet. BYD plans to build medium- and heavy-duty trucks at the plant, but declined to comment on whether it has plans to build light-duty vehicles there. Read more at Automotive News. The German states of Hesse and Baden-Wuerttemberg are suing Volkswagen over the Dieselgate scandal. The states are joining other investors seeking damages over losses incurred because of the automaker's emissions cheat device. Hesse Finance Minister Thomas Schaefer said the scandal cost the state about $4.4 million in stock losses, while Baden-Wuerttemberg likely lost closer to $450,000. Bavaria said earlier that it would sue Volkswagen on behalf of its pension fund for civil servants, which lost around $780,000. Read more from Automotive News Europe.

VW promises 7-seat CUV for America in 2016

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

On the eve of the Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen chief executive Martin Winterkorn has confirmed the imminent arrival of a new crossover. The model, previewed at the same show last year by the CrossBlue concept pictured here, will be unique to the North American market when it arrives here in 2016. The new three-row, seven-seat crossover is part of an ambitious expansion plan on the part of Volkswagen and Audi in North America, where the two brands aim to sell a million vehicles by 2018.
That's a mighty big increase over the 600,000 vehicles which the Volkswagen Group sold here last year, but it's moving in the right direction: That number is already a 100-percent increase of what it sold here just five years ago. At that rate, VW should have little trouble meeting its goals, particularly with the arrival of the new crossover and the introduction of Golf production at its assembly plant in Puebla, Mexico. Read the full statement below for more.
