 2004 Volkswagen Passat GLS TDI

Impeccably maintained by me and the one other original owner. Volkswagen imported this TDI model into the US only two years. They remain very desirable road cars and are well-built. Don't let the mileage scare you away from a great car with many years and miles ahead of it. I have all service records since the car was purchased new! It has been a good car but my wife wants a Lexus. Below are some of the highlights and features of this Passat:

Upgrades

Overhead dome light upgrade from a W8 Passat - red twilight illumination of console at night
Xenon headlights - these are true projector HIDs, not the blinding reflectors that some converted cars have
Balance Shaft Module replaced at 176,000 miles - if you dont know about the BSM, do a search on TDIclub.com. This replaces the chain driven BSM with a geared one.
VDO Boost gauge mounted in A-pillar pod. Gauge illuminates in correct VW blue.
Rocketchip RC1 Tune  for improved fuel economy and acceleration

Maintenance Highlights

Only proper 505.01 full synthetic oil used since the car was new

Camshaft (OEM not cheap Chinese), camshaft bearings, followers and seal replaced this month and carries a 3-year unlimited mileage warranty from the service facility- cam broken in properly with Joe Gibbs break in oil

All four injectors replaced with Genuine VW PD earlier this month

Driveshafts replaced in November 2010. These are German rebuilt axles from Raxles, not the cheap Chinese knock-offs from the auto parts store that don't balance

Torque converter was replaced at 210,000 miles

Transmission was power flushed at 226,000 miles

Oil was just changed. I used Schaeffer's 9000 5W40 with a new filter. The buyer will be good on an oil change until 240,000 miles

Serpentine belt replaced this month

Timing belt, water pump, tensioner, and roller were replaced at 176,000 miles

Fan clutch replaced at 176,000 miles

New Kumho tires were installed less than 5000 miles ago.

AC compressor replaced three years ago-air blows cold

Everything on this car works- every switch, button, and light. But it is a 10-year old car with a few scratches, dings, etc. I have tried to represent these in my photos.

I welcome pre-purchase inspections and test drives. I have bought and sold several cars and motorcycles on eBay and desire a happy buyer with no surprises. I value my perfect feedback. I do reserve the right to end the auction early since it is for sale locally. Mileage may increase since it is my wife's daily driver. For the winning bidder, I can meet your shipper or pick you up at the ATL airport if you want to do a fly and drive.

Paypal is OK for the deposit but balance has to be cash or verifiable funds

Don't buy that crossover! Buy a cladded wagon instead!

Fri, Nov 10 2017

If you're looking to buy a car soon, and you're like most Americans, there's a strong chance you're considering buying a crossover SUV. That's what people want nowadays. People like the tough, tall exterior that suggests adventure and preparedness, they like the high seating position, they like the all wheel drive many have and they like the practicality. Because of this, crossovers have rapidly supplanted typical cars such as sedans, wagons, and more as the most popular vehicles in the country. But they're compromised, too. They're often heavy, thirsty, and expensive compared with more conventional cars. The good news is, there's an alternative, a happy medium between the straight crossover and the traditional car. They're lifted wagons, and they're the best crossover SUVs around. And for those who may not know what we're talking about, we're talking about cars and wagons that have been given a suspension lift for more ground clearance and a higher ride height, and often have all wheel drive standard or optional. They also usually have chunky plastic body cladding to make them look tough and durable. Examples include the Subaru Crosstrek, Audi A4 Allroad, Buick Regal TourX, and Volkswagen Golf Alltrack, among others. Because of the suspension and body modifications, these vehicles fit the trendy crossover mold quite well. And in the case of long-running nameplates such as the Subaru Outback and Volvo Cross Country models, they even have some heritage as outdoorsy machines. They also provide the higher driving position that crossover buyers love. And in some cases, such as with the Golf Alltrack, we've learned they offer better ride quality than their road-oriented siblings. View 9 Photos So these tall wagons offer the key things crossover buyers want, but what makes them better than traditional crossovers is that they have the advantages of the cars they're based on. For instance, the aforementioned Golf Alltrack still drives mostly like a Golf, which is to say, it's nimble, feels peppy, and is easy to maneuver because of its relatively small size. We can't really say the same for the Tiguan, which feels generally more sluggish and uninteresting than the Alltrack. And we mention Volkswagen's compact crossover because it starts at nearly the same price as the Alltrack. Some of the difference in giddy-up can be explained by weight. Normal crossovers can be fairly portly, while these lifted wagons are notably lighter.

World Car Awards finalists snub American-branded vehicles — except for Bronco

Fri, Feb 2 2024

The list of World Car Awards has been whittled down to 10 finalists, but only one American brand — Ford — appears among the remaining nine carmakers for this yearÂ’s top award. The Bronco is there, and it also is balloted as a finalist in the design category. The other categories are performance car, urban car, electric vehicle and luxury model. Each category has five finalists except World Car, which has 10. One brand conspicuous by its absence in any category: Tesla. The winner in each is scheduled to be crowned March 27 at the New York International Auto Show in Manhattan. This year marks the 20th year of the World Car Awards and the partnership with the New York show. The selection process involves 100-plus automotive journalists from 29 countries who vote, as they review and test-drive the eligible vehicles for the 2024 awards. Their journey is captured virtually on World Car TV. If youÂ’re counting, the brands that appear most on the six finals lists are Mercedes-Benz (four times), BMW (also four), Hyundai (three), and Volvo (three). HereÂ’s the full listing. A video clip showing all of them is here: World Car -BYD Seal / Atto 4 -Ford Bronco -Hyundai Kona / Kona Electric -Hyundai Santa Fe -Kia EV9 -Mazda CX-90 -Subaru Crosstrek -Toyota Prius -Volkswagen ID.7 -Volvo EX30 World Car Design of the Year Ford Bronco Ferrari Purosangue Toyota Prius Volvo EX30 Zeekr X 2024 World Electric Vehicle BMW i5 Kia EV9 Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV Volkswagen ID.7 Volvo EX30 2024 World Luxury Car - BMW 5 Series / i5 - Lexus LM - Mercedes-Benz CLE - Mercedes-Benz E-Class - Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV 2024 World Urban Car  - Abarth 500e - BYD Dolphin - Lexus LBX - Suzuki Fronx - Volvo EX30 2024 World Performance Car - BMW M2 - BMW XM - Ferrari Purosangue - Hyundai Ioniq 5 N - Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid

Next-gen Volkswagen Golf R spied while running the 'Ring

Tue, 16 Apr 2013

The launch of a new Volkswagen Golf is never a small thing, and things are already looking up for the subcompact hatchback after it was named 2013 World Car of the Year. While we've already seen the base and GTI versions of the next-generation Golf, now we're getting our first look at the sportier Golf R.
Although this prototype wears GTI lettering on the front fenders, it's more than just the roll cage and Sparco racing seat hinting that this is something a little more serious. Unlike the Golf and GTI, this car shows that the Golf R will continue to flaunt massive air intakes on each side of the fascia, and the rear of the car (though it's hard to see) has quadruple exhaust outlets. We still don't have an official word on power, but rumors indicate that the next Golf R could be pushing close to 300 horsepower, making it the most powerful production Golf ever. As much fun as we had during our first drive of the Golf R Cabriolet in the cold, snowy French Riviera last month, more power is a warming idea.
