1999 Volkswagen Passat Gls Sedan 4-door 1.8l on 2040-cars
Fredericksburg, Virginia, United States
|
READ CAREFULLY! This is a 99 Passat 1.8l that needs a transmission! I bought this car as a quick project to get a car together for a family member but, they no longer need a car and I don't have time for the car. The car does drive, although if you purchase this car it will need to be towed to your location. Someone put the wrong transmission fluid in the car and it has burnt up the transmission pump. I have driven the car just to check that it goes through all the gears but I do not know the extent of the internal damage to the transmission by putting in the incorrect fluid. When I got the car, first thing I did was replace the fluid with the VW trans fluid. I didn't drop the pan but there was not any metal that was in the fluid. I set the fluid level and that is when I drove the car to check. It seems to shift fine however, the transmission pump screams when the car is started and when going down the road. As you can see in the picture, this is not a pristine car, the drivers seat bolster is ripped and was repaired with duct tape, the arm rest in the center consol is worn down as well as the door panels. I would say its pretty standard wear and tear for a car with 173k. Under the car is fairly clean, only leaks are from the transmission, engine seems pretty clean. Tires are all in good shape, fronts are about half worn and rears are fairly new. 4-5 32nds in the front 7-8 32nds in the rear. Let me know if you have any questions. This is a good opportunity to get a good car cheap! |

VW previews retouched 2014 Touareg for Beijing
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Volkswagen is in New York this week showing off its new Jetta and Golf TDI SportWagen concept. But in less than a week, the German automaker will be off to China for the Beijing Motor Show, where it will showcase the revised Touareg you see here.
A subtle update on the Touareg that's been on the market in its current form for four years now, the facelifted model features reworked styling front and rear, an updated interior and a host of new technologies to keep it current in the highly competitive SUV market. Among those new features are larger bi-xenon headlights, coasting function, Google Maps integration and a post-collision braking system designed to prevent a second crash.
VW will offer the new Touareg with a variety of engines around the world, but in North America it'll carry over the same six-cylinder powertrain options as the outgoing model: a 3.6-liter V6 with 280 horsepower, a 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 with 240 hp (though torque isn't listed, we'd expect around 406 pound-feet, same as last year) and a hybrid that marries a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 to an electric motor that combine to deliver 380 hp.
Volkswagen Golf R 400 Concept is a 201-mph hot hatch
Sun, 20 Apr 2014This, friends, is what happens when you shoehorn 395 horsepower into a Golf. You get a three-door hatch that will happily scurry to 62 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds and on to a top speed of 201 mph. Oh yes, we like you, Golf R 400 Concept.
As we explained in our original post, the R 400 is the long-awaited successor to bonkers Golf creations like the GTI W12 from 2007 and, more recently, the Design Vision GTI. It's powered by the same 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder found in a number of Volkswagen (and Audi, SEAT and Skoda) products, although it's been heavily massaged to pump out 332 pound-feet of torque along side its amplified horsepower.
Naturally, it's been lowered and now rides on 19-inch wheels. Outside of those changes, though, mums the word on suspension and chassis enhancements. While this is a bummer, the striking looks of the Golf R 400 more than make up for it.
Volkswagen and Funny or Die take humorous spin in 2015 Golf
Wed, 10 Sep 2014Volkswagen is partnering with Target and Funny or Die in a bizarre ad for the latest Golf starring comedian Rob Huebel, probably best known for his work on Childrens Hospital on Adult Swim.
The commercial is titled The Way Too Helpful Neighbor and stars Huebel as the eponymous neighbor. The challenge is for Huebel to help improve his buddy's apartment before the guy meets his girlfriend's parents for the first time. The obvious way to do that is to slide a new Golf through an actual Target in Texas, while simultaneously showcasing the store's goods and the car's features.
The commercial is airing online now and on TBS during breaks in Conan O'Brien's show, with sneak peaks during other programs on the network. Auto advertising is becoming pretty normal for Funny or Die at this point, though, with the site previously partnering with Fiat for several videos. Check out the ad above and see if you think it works. Scroll down for VW's announcement.
