2006 Volkswagen Jetta Tdi--black--120,xxx Miles on 2040-cars
Frankfort, Indiana, United States
As listed above, I have a 2006 VW Jetta TDI. The car has 120,XXX miles. It is not in perfect condition, the paint is good some swirl marks but could be buffed out with high speed buffing. The front bumper bottom air intake has a small crack in one of the slates. The wheels have scuff marks where it scrubbed a few curbs. The front tires will need replaced soon, the back tires are almost new. The trunk has an issue, sometimes it won't unlatch. The interior is in good condition, there are a few little tears in the center console leather. The back passenger seat belt has a fray in it. The headlights on the front are glossed over from the sun (seems to be an issue with 06 TDIs). The car has always been garage kept, and serviced at all intervals.
Now, to get to main part... This car has never had an issue until about three months ago. My mother was driving it, and it fell on its face and was dumping black smoke. I pulled it in my shop, threw a new fuel filter on it, started up, but wouldn't stay running for more than a few minutes. I replaced the ASV (Anti-Shutter Valve) and Mass Air Flow sensor. The car started and ran, but still sluggish. I inspected the crank, the timing, etc. etc. everything is in good order there. I recently rebuilt the turbo, and cleaned all the vacuum lines for the N75 valve. At this point, the car runs and drives, but doesn't have the get-up-and-go it use to have. I am sure it is the N75 went bad or something fairly cheap and easy, because I have inspected everything else. I have 2 trucks and this car, and I need to quit putting money into this, so would just like to sell it as is to someone who wants to fix it up and have a very nice fuel efficient vehicle. Like I said, the car is in pretty good shape overall for the year and miles, but it does have a slight issue still. I'm not looking to give it away, so don't send me low-ball offers. Message me with any other questions or more pictures.

VW Jetta TDI Value Edition drops price of diesel ownership to $21,295*
Wed, 08 Jan 2014Getting a new diesel-powered car just got a bit easier. Volkswagen has announced a new Jetta TDI Value Edition for 2014 that trims over $2,000 off the starting price of a Jetta TDI, making the most affordable diesel-powered car in America even more so. Prices start at $21,295 (*plus $820 for destination) for a Value Edition with a six-speed manual transmission, while a six-speed dual-clutch automatic adds $1,100 to the price. For that money, owners will get 140 horsepower, 236 pound-feet of torque and 42 miles per gallon on the freeway.
Despite the lower price and being down on content versus the previous base Jetta TDI, the Value Edition does come quite well equipped, with standard heated cloth seats, a six-speaker stereo with a Media Device Interface, satellite radio, and one-touch, up-down power windows on all four doors. Customers will be giving up some notable stuff though, including tilt/telescopic steering, Bluetooth streaming audio, power seats and a multi-function steering wheel.
Still, if you're aching to get your hands on a new TDI, this is now the most affordable way to do it. We suspect having the lower MSRP will help the German manufacturer make even further diesel-powered inroads here in the States, a land where they cleared their decks of over 100,000 TDI models in 2013.
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.
An inside look at VW's new California R&D center
Thu, 18 Oct 2012Less than two months ago, the Volkswagen Group opened a new facility in Oxnard, California (about an hour's drive west of Los Angeles). The $27 million investment, touted as Test Center California (TCC), serves as a research and development lab testing emissions for all brands under Volkswagen's umbrella, including its newest member, Porsche. While still not fully operational, we toured the new 64,000-square-foot building last week and had a first-hand opportunity to see just how much work is involved testing engines and meeting increasingly stringent government emissions standards.
Replacing a similar facility established in 1990 in Westlake Village (about 20-minutes east of the new location), our guide explained how Oxnard was chosen for its temperate climate, varied regional terrain for test drives and low altitude. (The area is only a few feet above sea level - a critical parameter when instrument testing emissions.) The new facility is capable of analyzing hundreds of vehicles, prototypes and customer-owned vehicles, annually.
Most interesting to us was the huge stainless steel climate chamber, with a massive four-wheel dynamometer that allows VW to test running vehicles in both scorching desert and freezing climates without ever leaving the building (an Audi Q7 was running in place during our visit). We were also mesmerized by the countless storage tanks and intricate plumbing of chemicals, stored in both liquid and gas states, needed to perform the variety of tests. Lastly, we took a look at Bugatti's service center on the west coast, located completely within the new center. While there were no supercars on site, the facility is equipped with plenty of spare forged wheels (mounted with expensive Michelin PAX tires) and a Veyron-specific repair jig that allows the vehicle to be completely disassembled, if needed. It is a shame that the facility, which set off all of our automotive geek alerts, is closed to the public.
