2002 Volkswagen Golf Gls Tdi 5 Speed Manual Sunroof 50+ Mpg No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Niantic, Connecticut, United States
|
2002 Volkswagen Golf GLS TDI This has the high demand 5 speed Manual Transmission Clutch is fine, no issues. 1.9 Liter Turbo charged ALH engine Timing belt and water pump, tensioner was done around 75,000 miles. It had the 100,000 mile belt installed Turbo works excellent. The glow plug system works fine. I installed a larger battery to assure it starts up on the coldest of winter mornings. Power windows all work fine, as well as the power sunroof, gas door and rear hatch release. The brakes feel good. The front brake pads have about 60% left. Rear brake pads have about %40 left. Shocks are great up front. The rear are still good but I would replace them when you do the brake pads, they were replaced maybe 5 years ago. The rest of the suspension is good. Steering feels great and responsive. Tires were just rotated. Two tires are about %80, Two tires I would replace soon. They are worn at one side because the car needed an alignment, which was done last year. It is due for an oil change next month. The fuel filter was replaced in November. The car needs a small hose from the PCV valve on the top of the valve cover gasket to the intake tube (can be clearly seen on the engine picture). The car had another key/cluster programmed something with the security system would not let the car start with the key. The body is very good for its 12 year old age and northern environment. The pictures should depict so. If you have any questions please let me know. This car is very reliable. I would replace the tires before taking it on a cross country journey. Despite the tires, the car drives excellent on the highway. The cruise control works The AM/FM works. I never used the CD or TAPE player. No reason for me to think it would not work. The glove box latch is NOT broken Head lights, turn signals, brake lights are good. This car reliably will get me 50-55 MPG with reasonable highway driving If you do not know much about the TDIs you *WANT* to buy a PRE-2004 TDI (2003 and down). WHY? the 2004+ ALH motors have a newer, more problematic pumpe-duse fuel injection system. The camshaft (upper engine) also fails prematurely on the 2004+. The 99-03 model Jetta, Golf, Passat, Beetle TDI are the ones to look for and buy. The car is located in Niantic, CT (near New london, New haven - southern CT) though I commute to Providince, RI so I can meet you anywhere in that general area if that helps. The TF Greene airport in Providence is pretty close (PVD). The Amtrak train also is very close (New London). TERMS OF SALE: Winning bidder must contact me within 12 hours after close of auction.

J.D. Power customer survey of dealers counts Cadillac, Buick as big winners
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Cadillac and Buick have taken the trophies in J.D. Power's latest Customer Service Index Study examining satisfaction with dealer service. Surveying more than 90,000 owners and lessees of 2009-2013 model-year cars, the study found that those with pre-paid maintenance packages were ten percent more likely to buy their next car from the same brand.
Dealer satisfaction scores have improved overall, Cadillac nabbed the luxury segment ahead of Audi and Lexus, taking the crown that Lexus held last year. Buick keeps the mass-market dealer satisfaction win in the family, finishing ahead of Volkswagen and last year's winner GMC. The study also found that service department use of tablets increased customer satisfaction, as did "best practices" like "providing helpful advice." Who knew?
You can find details on those and more findings in the press release below.
2013 Volkswagen Golf R Cabriolet
Thu, 07 Mar 2013The Golf VI's Last Hurrah Is Pure Niche
This was in the heart of the ultra-chic Côte d'Azur during winter. The car to be tested was the not-for-North America 2013 Volkswagen Golf R Cabriolet. Prevailing weather conditions here this time of year are bizarrely pleasant, as though a dome of Swarovski crystal has been placed over the entire region to protect it from any real winter spoiling things. And the zippy Golf R Cabriolet is a sports car designed precisely for this area's preciously narrow winding streets, as well as for the lofty budgets of its property owners.
So then why was it snowing like we were in northern Michigan? The weather front hit from the north like a swift kick to the Jordaches. The roof was open on this Candy White Golf R Cabrio and I, as is my wont, was determined through thick or thin to keep it retracted. It had been raining and sometimes sleeting like the End of Days, but I kept the lid cracked because the 261-horsepower cabrio - the most powerful convertible ever built by Volkswagen - was snipping along nicely as the bad weather blew over my head and wetted only the rear headrests.
VW midsize crossover production headed for Chattanooga
Fri, 10 Jan 2014Potential labor woes aside, it looks like Volkswagen's Chattanooga, TN factory must have done something that impressed the bosses in Germany, because it sounds like the three-year-old factory is set to score a second model.
The factory currently builds the Passat, and has been in the running alongside VW's Puebla, Mexico factory to build a new crossover vehicle, likely based on the CrossBlue Concept. According to Bloomberg, a pair of unnamed sources have confirmed that Chattanooga is the favorite ahead of an official announcement.
When last we heard about the CrossBlue Concept, word was that a production decision had been delayed over concerns about the three-row CUV's business case. That August 2013 story claimed that a decision regarding the CrossBlue would be pushed back until early in 2014, which means we're ripe for some sort of news, whether good or bad.
