1996 Volkswagon Passat Tdi 1.9 Liter Diesel 1z Ahu Turbo Ready To Swap on 2040-cars
Venice, California, United States
|
I bought this Passat because I was going to swap it's incredibly bomb-proof TDI engine into my VW Caddy / Pickup. A brand new job has me wondering when I'll ever have the time. I rebuilt the injection pump, tuned the engine and commuted 30 miles a day in Los Angeles rush hour traffic for 4 months with this car to see if it's engine was worthy. This is the '96-97 TDI engine that swaps into MK1 and MK2 Rabbit's, Jetta's and VW Pickup trucks with commercially available mounts. These things are German Legos. It has never let me down and worked like a champ. Been sitting for the last month and started instantly this afternoon. Clutch is solid as is the O2J transmission. Brakes could use new pads. Interior is horrible. Dash needs some new plastic parts but could easily be new with a few small parts. Car cruises at 80 mph all day and gets 45 mpg doing so. You could drive it across the country tomorrow. Are you going to use the whole car? You'll need to fix the electric windows. A/C is there but un-charged. You'll need to do something about the interior. The electric sunroof works perfectly! Running synthetic oil and new filters while I've owned it. Timing belt will need to be changed in 5-10K. Clear title and California registered until 2015. No smog necessary.

VW updates Scirocco with revised styling, new engines
Sun, 16 Feb 2014The Scirocco is undoubtedly one of the better-looking models in the Volkswagen lineup, but introduced back in 2008, it's now been on the market - some markets, anyway - for the better part of six years. VW is said to have an all-new replacement in the works, but before that arrives, the German automaker has announced a facelifted version with revised styling and a new engine lineup.
Set to be revealed at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Scirocco benefits from updated styling front and rear, high-tech exterior lighting, a revised cabin space with some throwback retro touches, some new technologies and, of course, an array of fresh wheel options ranging from 17 to 19 inches.
The updated Scirocco will be offered with a wide array of engines right from the get-go, including four gasoline options and two diesels, spanning from 125 horsepower all the way up to the 280-hp Scirocco R. The 2014 model hits European showrooms in August, but unfortunately isn't any more likely to make the transatlantic voyage Stateside than the version it replaces. Still interested? There's plenty to see in the high-res image gallery above and details in the press release below.
Carlex Criollo is a Volkswagen Multivan shrine to Alcantara, leather and... fish
Wed, 10 Jul 2013A keen angler recently went to Polish tuner Carlex Design (the same folks who did that steampunk Mini Countryman a while back) for a revamp of his Volkswagen Multivan. What resulted is perhaps the most striking - yet fishing-unfriendly - interior we've ever seen in a van. Below the shoulder line, if a surface isn't covered in cross-stitched Alcantara, then it's covered in cross-stitched leather. Even the steering wheel airbag boss. And the seat supports. And the cupholders.
The brown hue of the Multivan's interior is called Criollo, named for an especially fine specimen of cocoa. The finishing touch on the overhaul is a fileting knife that Carlex made for the owner. We imagine he'll use the knife for the marine life, but keep his van far away from it.
Volkswagen Multivan Alltrack Concept takes the luxury van life off road
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Volkswagen dug into its commercial vehicle fleet for its latest Geneva Motor Show concept, blending the versatile body of the T5 MultiVan with a luxuriously appointed interior, 4Motion all-wheel drive and a thrifty diesel powertrain.
That 177-horsepower diesel engine routes its power to the AWD system through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Based on that alone, we'd expect the Multivan Alltrack's behind-the-wheel experience to be somewhat familiar. That all-wheel-drive system and van body contribute to the 21-degree approach and 15-degree departure angles of this soft-roading MultiVan.
What wouldn't be familiar is its exquisite cabin. Volkswagen opted for a nautical theme for the concept's interior, featuring grey-blue leather seats from Poltrona Frau and a floor finished in real wood. The dark wood trim can also be found throughout the interior, running below the windows and on the dash.
