**This vehicle is in need of significant mechanical repair** While this VW does run and drive, it will need significant repair before it can be driven and I would highly reccomend that you have it trailered away from our dealership. Read sections below for more details regarding condition. Vehicle Description: This Turbo Diesel VW will make a great project car for someone looking to save huge money on fuel! This VW has had 3 previous owners and 0 accident history per autocheck. At 241,581 miles, the exterior of this vehicle is in fair condition for this age and miles. The exterior does show signs of rust - especially on the hood, fenders and hatch (see pictures & video). The passenger side mirror housing is cracked and it is missing the rear wiper. The windshield is cracked along the top. The interior is in above average condition for the year and miles -- there is some wear on the plastic covered items on the interior like the door handles and radio buttons but overall the interior is clean. The tires are in very good condition, one of the wheel covers is cracked (see pics). The rear hatch is currently not opening from either the inside or outside. The driver side door lock is unable to be engaged (when you hit the lock button, it moves down a bit but will not go all the way down to be locked). The radio is not currently turning on, but it did work when I first got the car. The Air Conditioning is ICE COLD. Mechanically, this car needs transmission work -- from what I have read and been advised it will need a clutch/flywheel replacement. It is difficult to get into gear at times. At idle, the engine shakes which I have also read is a sign of the flywheel needing to be replaced. The check engine light is also on for turbo overboost so it doesn't have full power at higher RPMs. The engine has a slight tick that I have tried to capture in the video. The airbag light is on. I am not a mechanic, but I have tried to describe the mechanic issues as fully as I possibly can but I am not 100% positive that the diagnoises I have provided are accurate - they are just my educated guesses. You are welcome to come check out the car for yourself, but due to the fragile mechanical state that it is in there will be no test-drives. Check out the pictures & video for more information or feel free to email/call me (Michael) at 734-717-3653 with specific questions.

VW confirms development of 10-speed dual clutch, 134-hp/liter diesel
Fri, 26 Apr 2013Each year, the Vienna International Motor Symposium showcases some of the up-and-coming technologies automakers are engineering for the use in passenger cars, and Volkswagen AG CEO Martin Winterkorn revealed some big developments VW is working on for its future products. Winterkorn discussed a multi-faceted approach that VW is looking to reduce its fleet fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
Some of the bigger news he discussed included a "high-performance" diesel engine that will produce 134 horsepower per liter and a 10-speed DSG automatic transmission. While no specific applications were mentioned, we can only hope this is for the Audi R4 we keep hearing about.
Another topic he touched on that caused us to perk up our ears was had to do with VW's plug-in hybrid technology. While we know the PHEV versions of the Audi A3 and Porsche Panamera are on the way, Winterkorn also said that these two models will be followed up by Golf, Passat, Audi A6 and Porsche Cayenne plug-in models. Scroll down for a press release highlighting the automaker's future fuel-saving initiatives.
NA auto output to reach 11-year peak
Thu, 13 Jun 2013According to Automotive News, automakers are expected to manufacture 16 million light vehicles in North America in 2013. That's up 500,000 units from last year and marks the largest number since 2002. The prediction comes courtesy of LMC Automotive and IHS Automotive, which point to the improving US economy as a bellwether for total production. LMC Automotive says North America will produce 16 million vehicles while IHS has a slightly more optimistic forecast of 16.1 million units. A total of seven automakers are slated to increase production on the continent this year. Nissan is set to see the largest jump at 20 percent over last year.
Volkswagen, meanwhile, is one of the only manufacturers predicted to scale back production. Analysts expect the German company's output to fall by 23 percent to 170,000 units, thanks in part to slow demand for the Volkswagen Passat and Jetta.
Editors' Choice: Top Five 2013 Geneva Motor Show Debuts
Fri, 08 Mar 2013We've returned from a very busy week in Switzerland, and in going back over all of our 75 stories from the Geneva Motor Show, our editors have gathered up their personal favorite debuts from the European expo.
The wonderful thing about the Geneva show is just how wide of an array of vehicles are on display - everything from funny little one-off EVs to the most exotic of supercars to, well, truly ridiculous displays of coachbuilding. And because of that, this list of our editors' favorites might not be as predictable as you think.
But we don't want to give anything away just yet. Scroll down to have a look at our team's favorites from Geneva.
