2005 GL TDI
181,000 Miles Recent additions: -4 Brand new Michelin Primacy Tires (over $500) -Rebuilt front end, all new control arms, etc. -All four new shocks/struts -Changed oil, fuel filter, air filter, cabin filter, in the last 500miles. - changed Thermostat, thermostat housing, coolant sensor and a hose in the back of the engine. (we had a small coolant leak and I went overboard in fixing it, no leaks now tho!) At 130,000miles we had a ton of work done on the car, -Water Pump, timing belt, alternator pulleys, etc He also Installed the BHW Balance shaft retrofit kit (so no annoying chain, just gear to gear). This costs several thousand dollars but fixes a design flaw of this car. Not doing this repair, often results in engine damage. -I also had a small leak in the EGR cooler at this time so I bypassed it. This does not effect the operation of the car, but you get a little emissions warning light. -Had the RocketChip installed at this time. This was an awesome upgrade and makes the car MUCH more fun to drive. No worries about accelerating onto a highway, plenty of passing power. -Installed updated Steel glowplugs. We literally have a book full of all the things we've done to the car in the last 4 years. I have always used the proper VW spec oil, coolant, and all other fluids, so no worries there. The things that need to be addressed as they are not perfect: -CV joints need to be done sometime in the near future as they are just starting to click on hard turns. -Car door locks are starting to act funny with the key fob or sometimes with the switch on the door. I've heard this is a common problem but have not looked into it yet. Doors and rear hatch all function perfectly when used with the key (manually). -Small piece of trim (1 inch) is broken by the rear driveside door. We looked into replacing it as it is a fairly common and thus cheap to fix issue, but honestly it never bothered us enough to worry about. Otherwise, the car is a 2005. It has been used. Minor scuffs from usage. So expect what you would expect from an 8 year old car that has 181,000 miles. I am aware of no mechanical defects other than what I have outlined above, I would trust driving it to wherever it needs to be driven. This VW is very good for long road trips. Has 12V connections in the back of the car which we used for a cooler, is comfortable to drive long distances with, and gets good fuel economy. Fuel usage from the factory is stated as 24 city 37 highway. We kept a logbook where we manually entered fuel economy. On long road trips I could break 40mpg, in town only we never actually got below 29mpg. I would expect an average of 34 or so real world MPG. This isn't as high as a Golf or Jetta, but the car is so much more comfortable and it feels much more stable at highway speeds. Reason I'm selling it? Simple. We recently got into restoring an old camper with the idea of doing a lot more traveling and camping before the kids get too old. Can the VW tow it? Perhaps, but the wife and I would feel more comfortable doing it in a larger vehicle. So we got a Ford Explorer that will be better suited to that duty. Sure going to miss our zippy little car and great fuel economy tho :P Last two pictures are the small damage. Last one is a scratch in the surface of the paint. It is hard to see but I wanted to show it. Second to last picture is where that piece of trim is missing. Thanks for looking! Drew |

The Volkswagen Group switches official language to English
Wed, Dec 14 2016The Volkswagen Group can't be fairly thought of as entirely German anymore, so the news that the company is switching its official language to English to help attract managers and executives is a rational, if surprising, decision. While many VW Group companies are still staidly German in character and culture, consider the other companies that it controls: Bentley (British), Bugatti (French), Ducati and Lamborghini (Italian), Skoda (Czech), Scania trucks (Swedish), and SEAT (Spanish). Not to mention the large Volkswagen Group of America operation, which constructs cars in Chattanooga, TN. Volkswagen's explicit motivation is to improve management recruitment – making sure the company isn't losing out on candidates for important positions because they can't speak German – and that's inherently sensible in a globalized economy. Particularly considering, like it or lump it, that English is the lingua franca of said global economy. It also should make it inherently easier to communicate between its world-wide subsidiaries and coordinate operations. It's hard to say for sure if this will have any impact on the consumer, although it's easy to see the benefits if, say, VW Group hires some American product planners or engineers and they push for features and designs that more closely suit American needs. After all, the US is a hugely important market for any manufacturer, and so the switch to English almost certainly has something to do with the outsized influence of the US in the global economy. And there doesn't seem to be a downside from a purely rational perspective, although it could mean that the Group's corporate culture becomes less German. Whether that's a good or a bad thing depends on your perspective.
