2006 Vw Jetta Tdi 5-speed Manual Red Htd Seats New Body Style Mechanics Special on 2040-cars
Saint Louis, Missouri, United States
|
Car is located in suburban St. Louis, 11 miles east of the Arch. Runs and drives but will need to tow. Has low power and black smoke when warm. Exterior has a few dings and one small dent. Paintless Dent Removal said all can be addressed. A few scuffs on rear bumper. Windshield cracked. Interior is good with no rips or cracks. Some wear on buttons. Brake pad light on. I bought this car to fix up for my daughter but thought it was a 5-speed automatic, when it is actually a 5-speed manual. So I am selling it as I bought it. I am disclosing everything I know about it. But please keep in mind that I have only had it a few weeks and have limited knowledge. This is a car that will can be made nice with some work. I bought it with that in mind. This car is loaded, with sunroof, heated seats, leather, Satellite Radio, and most options. It is definitely a mechanic's special as it has been diagnosed needing a new camshaft and O2 sensor, as well as front brake pads. The camshaft replacement is necessary on most of these and the kit with bearings, lifters and cam is about $450. The engine sounds good with no knocking. The job is about 4 hours with easy access in car for a mechanic. Starts right up. I drove it a couple of miles and it drove well, except that it is low on power and put out black smoke after a bit of driving. Clutch is fine. Has had timing belt replaced. But it has the common camshaft wear so it is low on power, per the shop. I will be glad to cooperate with shipping but my price is firm. Trying to get out what I have in it. Clear title in hand. |

1000-hp Mk1 VW Golf is terrifyingly cool
Tue, 04 Jun 2013There are plenty of things to love about the Mk1 Volkswgen Golf. The machine's horsepower isn't one of them. From the factory, the little hatch cranked a breathy 112 horsepower from the most robust form of its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine. Boba motoring, however, has taken that figure and multiplied it by a factor of nearly 10. If 1,000 horsepower sounds terrifying in a machine with a wheelbase of just 94.5 inches, it should. A massive Garrett GTX4202R turbo force-feeds the little mill through a tweaked 16-valve KR head. The crew calls the beast the 16Vampir, and we think that's fitting.
Of course, we'd wager you quit reading right about the time you set your eyes on that headline. Those of you who've stuck around this long can point yourselves below to see the maniacal creation in action. You won't be disappointed.
VW investigating Golf water leak discovered by car magazine
Sat, 07 Sep 2013Volkswagen is in a spat with German magazine Auto Bild over claims that its new, seventh-generation Golf may already need a recall. The German weekly reports that new Golfs can leak water into front-passenger footwells due to a faulty drainage tube in their air conditioning systems.
And while the fix itself doesn't sound too terrible, because Volkswagen bases so many cars off the same platform as the Golf, Auto Bild is claiming that 300,000 models could be affected, including the Audi A3 and Seat Leon. That's a very bold claim. For its part, VW is vehemently denying that number, according to Reuters, saying it's aware of the problem and claiming only 46 Golfs need fixing. In addition, it denies that any Audi or Seat models are affected by the issue.
Either way, regardless of how pervasive this leak issue is, North American buyers should rest easy knowing that the problems ought to get fixed by the time the Mk VII Golf finaly reaches our dealerships.
Auto execs surveyed say VW, BMW most likely to grow
Thu, 17 Jan 2013A new survey of top global automotive executives indicates both Volkswagen and BMW are the most likely to grow their market share over the next five years.
Tax advisory firm KPMG LLP has released its 14th annual Global Automotive Executive Survey, which includes responses from over 200 executives. A total of 81 percent of respondents said they expect to see Volkswagen make gains, compared to 70 percent last year. BMW, meanwhile, saw 70 percent of those surveyed say they believe the company will increase its market share. That's a jump of 7 percentage points over last year. This is the first time in the history of the survey that BMW has claimed the second-place spot.
Meanwhile, Hyundai has seen its perceived market share potential slacken for the third year in a row. Around 61 percent of those surveyed predicted gains for Hyundai, down from 63 in 2012. Toyota also has a surprising year, but for just the opposite reason. While the manufacturer had slipped in ranking since 2011, it enjoyed the largest increase of any company in the 2013 survey, jumping to 68 percent from 44 percent last year.
