Passat wagon for very cheap, now is your opportunity. This 2001
Volkswagen Passat GLS V6 is now available for NO RESERVE. The wagon is perfect
for anyone that needs cargo room, passenger room, and wants good fuel economy.
You don’t have to sacrifice one for the other anymore! Please read the full
description. INTERIOR:
The cloth seats are in good shape with no rips or tares. The
sunroof works perfectly and the heat blows hot. The heated seats are very
effective and feel great. The radio is showing signs of no power so it will not
come on. The driver master switch is missing; a new or used one will plug right
up and work just fine, the other windows work. There are no offensive odors coming from the interior.
The unique wood grain is still in great shape. The fabric on the door panels is
not adhering on the door properly. A simple labor charge by a professional can
glue this right back together. The original window sticker is still with the
vehicle along with the owner’s manual. This is usually a good sign. EXTERIOR:
The body is straight and there isn’t any rotting from any rust.
There are some close ups on the minor imperfections below. Other than a few
bumps and dings, the body is still presentable. The tires are in good shape
with a lot of tread left, and I haven’t noticed any slow leaks. These will not
need replacing anytime soon. MOTOR/HANDLING: I drove this wagon for 30 minutes without any issues. The Passat was difficult to jump start after is sat for a couple
weeks. After the car warmed up, it stayed idling with no issues. It was hard to
see but there was some very light smoke coming from the engine bay. This didn’t
have a strong odor, but it went away after some time and then came back. When
the car is warmed up it ceases to stall, rpms are steady, and it starts
accepting a charge from the alternator. Putting it into gear has a slight jerk
to it sometimes and the acceleration is not all that responsive at very low RPM’s.
After about 2k rpm’s the car acts normal. The acceleration is fine, the
transmission shifts very smooth and when it should. The brakes are quiet and
are very effective. The powered steering is smooth and quiet, same with the suspension.
Currently the brake warning
light, abs, and check engine light are on. The brake light will flash. We do
not know what the issues are and we are willing to let the car go to anyone who
has the patience or time. This is not far from being a great car, a little bit
of time and this could be a great deal to the right person. If you are
interested in purchasing it, feel free to message me so we can create a deal. Please remember, I am not a mechanic. Thank you for looking and happy bidding!

Bentley considering diesel engine for new SUV
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Turns out, in case you didn't know, the rich are just like regular people. They too are concerned about the environment, even when tooling around town in their super-luxurious Bentleys. So the automaker is weighing the idea of offering a diesel engine in its SUV offering, which could help satisfy customers' demands for more fuel-efficient engines.
Chairman and CEO Wolfgang Schreiber told Autoblog in a roundtable interview at the Geneva Auto Show that the automaker is researching whether or not a diesel engine makes sense for the brand. Bentley, owned by the Volkswagen Group, could in theory use a diesel engine from anywhere in the Volkswagen Group family. We at Autoblog have hopes they'll revive the V10 TDI used in the VW Touareg until 2010, but ever-stricter emissions laws would likely make that problematic.
But rich people aren't so much like us that they'll be worried about petty things like pricing. Schreiber admitted the diesel engine could be a $15,000 option, which he said customers would probably find "acceptable." Given that the cheapest Bentley today starts at $177,000, typical customers probably won't be diddling around worrying about an extra 15 grand.
Poor headlights cause 40 cars to miss IIHS Top Safety Pick rating
Mon, Aug 6 2018Over the past few months, we've noticed a number of cars and SUVs that have come incredibly close to earning one of the IIHS's highest accolades, the Top Safety Pick rating. They have great crash test scores and solid automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning systems. What trips them up is headlights. That got us wondering, how many vehicles are there that are coming up short because they don't have headlights that meet the organization's criteria for an "Acceptable" or "Good" rating. This is a revision made after 2017, a year in which headlights weren't factored in for this specific award. This is also why why some vehicles, such as the Ford F-150, might have had the award last year, but have lost it for this year. We reached out to someone at IIHS to find out. He responded with the following car models. Depending on how you count, a whopping 40 models crash well enough to receive the rating, but don't get it because their headlights are either "Poor" or "Marginal." We say depending on how you count because the IIHS actual counts truck body styles differently, and the Infiniti Q70 is a special case. Apparently the version of the Q70 that has good headlights doesn't have adequate forward collision prevention technology. And the one that has good forward collision tech doesn't have good enough headlights. We've provided the entire list of vehicles below in alphabetical order. Interestingly, it seems the Volkswagen Group is having the most difficulty providing good headlights with its otherwise safe cars. It had the most models on the list at 9 split between Audi and Volkswagen. GM is next in line with 7 models. It is worth noting again that though these vehicles have subpar headlights and don't quite earn Top Safety Pick awards, that doesn't mean they're unsafe. They all score well enough in crash testing and forward collision prevention that they would get the coveted award if the lights were better.
UAW tactics called into question at VW's TN plant
Thu, 26 Sep 2013The United Auto Workers is in hot water with some of the very workers it is trying to unionize at Volkswagen's Chattanooga assembly plant. According to The Tennessean, eight Volkswagen factory workers have filed complaints against the UAW with the National Labor Relations Board, claiming the union "misled or coerced" them into formally asking for union representation.
The UAW has instituted a major push at the Chattanooga plant to represent the 2,500 hourly laborers that build the VW Passat by using what's called a card-check process. The tactic is opposed by the National Right to Work Legal Defense foundation, the group representing the workers. The card-check process demands that a company recognize a union that obtains the signatures of more than half its workforce, according to The Tennessean. This tactic is in contrast to the more traditional route, which sees employees vote on union representation.
The workers filing the complaint claim that the UAW told them the cards merely called for a secret ballot, rather than an outright demand for union representation. Workers also allege that the UAW has made it overly difficult to reclaim their signed cards, some of which were signed so long ago that they have been rendered invalid. Although the cards can force a company's hand, federal law still allows the company to ask for a secret ballot before yielding to unionized workers.
