2004 Volkswagen Jetta Tdi Sedan 4-door 1.9l- Mobile, Alabama on 2040-cars
Fruitdale, Alabama, United States
|
Avg 40 mpg. I am the third owner and bought the car at 106K in Feb 2009. Cam shaft and followers replaced at about 100K by previous owner and I have the receipt. Runs great, very cold A/C, very good tires, new battery, new alternator. I have receipts for all repairs I've made, tires, battery, etc. I have only used synthetic oil. According to the previous owner (a dealer who had been using this as a family car for two years), the timing belt was replaced at 90K, but I don't have that receipt. I had it checked by a mechanic recently and he said it looks fine. I have only made minor repairs.

This has been a very reliable car. It has great power and very cold A/C. I bought a Prius from a friend and no longer need the Jetta. Comes with Autel Maxscan VAG405 computer code reader. There are two glow plugs that need to be replaced, which make the check engine light come on. I bought the reader because I recently had a bad diagnosis of faulty transmission (caused by low battery/alternator - both replaced) and wanted the ability to check the codes myself to sure there are no additional problems if the check engine light comes on. Private party value: Edmunds $4937, KBB $4489. |

2013 Volkswagen Golf R Cabriolet
Thu, 07 Mar 2013The Golf VI's Last Hurrah Is Pure Niche
This was in the heart of the ultra-chic Côte d'Azur during winter. The car to be tested was the not-for-North America 2013 Volkswagen Golf R Cabriolet. Prevailing weather conditions here this time of year are bizarrely pleasant, as though a dome of Swarovski crystal has been placed over the entire region to protect it from any real winter spoiling things. And the zippy Golf R Cabriolet is a sports car designed precisely for this area's preciously narrow winding streets, as well as for the lofty budgets of its property owners.
So then why was it snowing like we were in northern Michigan? The weather front hit from the north like a swift kick to the Jordaches. The roof was open on this Candy White Golf R Cabrio and I, as is my wont, was determined through thick or thin to keep it retracted. It had been raining and sometimes sleeting like the End of Days, but I kept the lid cracked because the 261-horsepower cabrio - the most powerful convertible ever built by Volkswagen - was snipping along nicely as the bad weather blew over my head and wetted only the rear headrests.
Toyota reclaims global sales crown, GM and VW not far behind
Mon, 28 Jan 2013TheDetroitBureau.com reports Toyota has retaken the global sales crown. The Japanese automaker turned out 9.75 million vehicles last year, putting it just ahead of General Motors, with 9.29 million vehicles. Volkswagen, meanwhile, filled out the podium by building 9.1 million units in 2012.
Still, Toyota numbers fell just below projections the automaker made earlier in the year, due largely to a fierce territorial dispute between Japan and China that has seen mainland buyers shun Japanese goods. But the news marks a substantial comeback for Toyota. The company fell to third place in the global production race in 2011 after tragic earthquake and tsunami caused several plant closures.
In Japan, Toyota enjoyed a sales increase of 35 percent over the previous year, while the company's worldwide sales jumped by 23 percent thanks in part to new additions to the Prius line. The automaker is forecasting yet another increase for 2013, with the company projecting to reach 9.91 million units this year. Neither Volkswagen nor GM have released their own projections just yet.
