 I am selling my rare 2001 Jetta GLX. These are top of the line for the Jetta's. It has power everything including sunroof, heated leather seats, Monsoon stereo, etc. I will give you a breakdown of everything on the car:

Mechanics: The car has 149683 on the odometer. The car runs great with plenty of power. It has a 5 speed manual transmission and VR6 engine. The check engine light is on and it reads emissions workshop on the onboard computer. I am assuming this means it needs an O2 sensor. I just replaced the seals for the oil cooler, put a new coil pack on it (old one had a crack), and new Bosch Iridium plugs. It has a small coolant leak that I believe is coming from the "crack pipe." Besides those two issues everything is great on the car. All the power works and has a great sounding stereo for factory. It has brand new BF Goodrich tires all the way around.

Body: Body is in pretty good shape. There are no major dents on the car. The driver side fender has some peeling clear coat on the top and there are two small spots on the front of the hood that the paint was chipped and it has some surface rust that can be knocked off and touched up. There is no rust on the frame or anywhere on the body.

Interior: The interior is in great shape on the car. The seats are perfect with no tears or rips anywhere. The dash does not have any cracks in it anywhere. The floors are clean with just a vacuum needed to make it perfect. The trunk carpet is good as well. I think the front seats had covers on them most of the time and the covers are still in the trunk.

All in all the car is in good shape and is fun to drive. I bought it as a gas saver due to my other vehicle being a full size truck. I just do not know very much about VW so I am selling it to buy a car I know more about how to work on. I do have it for sale or trade locally so if it is gone before the auction ends then I will end the auction.  If you have any questions about the car you can email, call, or text me, 864-254-8572

I took the car to Auto Zone today to have them read the check engine light because I noticed it had a little skip. They hooked up the OBDII and it is not an O2 sensor that is bad. It is actually the Cam Shaft Position sensor. I thought this was good news because the part is $68 on ebay, see the link below, which is cheaper than the O2 sensor. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Audi-Porsche-VW-EuroVan-Jetta-Phaeton-Touareg-Engine-Camshaft-Position-Sensor-/190707088822?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A2001%7CMake%3AVolkswagen%7CModel%3AJetta%7CSubmodel%3AGLX%7CEngine+-+Liter_Display%3A2.8L&hash=item2c67073db6&vxp=mtr

VW offers $2,000 to keep owners loyal

Tue, Oct 6 2015

Volkswagen stands to lose a large portion of its customer base in the aftermath of the diesel emissions scandal, but the German automaker isn't about to sit back and watch its customers defect to other brands. To that end, VW is offering significant incentives to keep its buyers coming back. This latest incentive program will award a $2,000 loyalty bonus to existing VW drivers in the United States, to be applied to towards the purchase or lease of a new gasoline- or hybrid-powered vehicle. What's more, the offer can be combined with any other incentive on offer (save for employee or fleet discounts). The automaker is offering discounts of between $2,000 for a Passat to as much as $4,000 for a Touareg, CC, or Eos. The incentives are aimed to stave off a potential dip in sales as public trust of the company plummets in the wake of the diesel scandal. Despite the admission that it had manipulated emissions testing, Volkswagen's sales in the US actually increased in September. But they could stand to drop significantly over the course of October. The discounts may soften that blow some, but the manufacturer is not likely to be able to keep up those incentives in the long run. The move follows a similar initiative undertaken by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles in Europe. There the Italian-American automaker is offering owners of Volkswagen Group vehicles – diesel or otherwise – significant discounts of up to $1,700 to trade into an FCA vehicle. Related Video:

Who wants to pay a million dollars for a VW Beetle?

Mon, Jun 1 2015

The Volkswagen Beetle was always envisioned as a cheap mode of transportation, but now one is being offered for over $1 million by a dealer in the company's home base of Wolfsburg, Germany. So just what makes this Beetle so special? It's not the first one made, and it's not the last one made – but it comes close: This particular example is an Ultima Edicion – one of the final Bugs made in Mexico before production ended even there in 2003. It's decked out in beige with a black fabric interior and none – repeat, none – of the bells and whistles. With less than 75 miles on the odometer, it offers one wealthy buyer the rare opportunity to get an original Beetle (not some modernized incarnation thereof) in factory-fresh condition, which no one has been able to do for over a dozen years now. Does that make it worth the million-euro ($1.1M) asking price? Not if you ask us, no. But then we wouldn't count ourselves among the most dedicated Beetle fanatics out there.
