No Reserve Auction

First bid can own it

Im selling my 2003 Vw Passat GLX 4 motion AWD. It has 76000 miles on it and runs and drives great. The engine is the 2.8 V6 with automatic transmission. The car has heated black leather and power seats, moonroof, cd player with tape player also. The car has every option available except the V8 engine. Everything works except for the power trunk release. I use the key to get in the trunk. The passenger rear door only opens from the inside right now. I was going to pull the door panel off but it has been raining the last couple days. The handle is not broke. I think the rod came loose. I will try and fix it before the car is picked up. The car has new front brake pads and rotors on it. New oil change with Mobile 1 oil. The check engine light is on saying cam position sensor. The sensor is good. From what ive read online the chain tensioner on all these engines loses pressure when parked. So when its started the chain has slack in it and throws the code. It runs perfectly with no bad effects. Im driving threw mostly town and im averaging almost 25 mpg. So if you drive highway then it will be better. The body is almost perfect except it has a scrape on the rear bumper driver side. I took a picture of it to show it. It isn't bad and not really noticeable. The ABS light is on but my scanner wont pick it up. I hear the pump run when the car is started. So its a sensor. The light wasn't on until the pads went bad. So I think it needs cycled or turned off with a scanner then it will be fine. The car is a R title. It was rebuilt by a professional shop at 7000 miles. So there was no back yard work done. There is no evidence of any damage that I can see. It has had almost 70000 miles put on it since it was rebuilt. So any problems would have shown them selves and been fixed by now. The cars low book value is $6700. So its almost half price of low book. You could buy this car and trade it in on a new car and make money.

VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.

VW joins Daimler's protest of new A/C refrigerant as EU deadline for compliance passes

Sun, 06 Jan 2013

The case of Dupont and Honeywell's refrigerant R-1234yf is doing the exact opposite of keeping things cool. The two chemical companies have spent years and hundreds of millions of dollars developing R-1234yf to replace R-134a, the new refrigerant shown to be 99.7-percent kinder to the environment than the one it is meant to succeed. Part of that development has been years of testing by governments, outside safety agencies and automakers to approve the chemical for use in cars. It passed the protocols necessary for the European Union to declare that new and significantly revised cars from 2013 onward needed to use R-1234yf, and mandated that every car as of 2017 must use it.
Enter Daimler AG. The automaker created a head-on collision test with a B-Class at their Sindelfingen test track that would lead to the pressurized refrigerant being sprayed on the engine. The result in 20 out of 20 test was that the refrigerant burst into flames as soon as it hit the hot engine, while Daimler says that R-134a does not catch fire in the same test. Another unexpected result of the R-1234yf test was the release of hydrogen flouride, a chemical far more deadly to humans than hydrogen cyanide, emitted in such amounts that it that turned the windshield white as it began to eat into the glass.
Said a Daimler engineer in a Reuters piece, "It was scarcely believable. The most complicated lab tests conducted using the most sensitive measuring instruments around found nothing and all we do is drive a car around a couple of times, open a tiny hole in the refrigerant line and the next thing you know the car is on fire." So Daimler said it wouldn't use the refrigerant, and it recalled the cars it had already shipped with R-1234yf.

Tanner Foust checks out his new VW Beetle GRC rally car

Thu, 11 Sep 2014

Racing driver and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is a very busy guy. After all, he's competing in rounds of both Global Rallycross series and FIA World Rallycross Championship, not to mention his TV duties. However, we probably shouldn't feel too sorry for him, because his job puts him behind the wheel of some truly crazy machinery.
Case in point is his latest ride in Global Rallycross - the Volkswagen Beetle GRC. The German company claims that this all-wheel drive Bug makes around 540 horsepower from its 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder and can shoot to 60 in under 2 seconds. Plus, if this video is any indication, this Volkswagen sounds like a machine gun when throwing revs at idle, and it can do some wonderfully easy four-wheel drifts.
Previously, Foust was driving a VW Polo for Andretti Autosport in GRC, but the team unveiled the look of the Beetle GRC at the Chicago Auto Show. Now, Foust is finally getting to show off his new office to the public, and like VW's tagline for the new car claims, it's way hotter than Herbie.
