VERY RARE V10 TWIN-TURBO DIESEL WITH LOW MILEAGE. Hi, we have decided to sell our 2004 V10 Diesel Volkswagen Touareg with only 85,173 miles on it. It was primarily her car and she, being a substitute school teacher, drove this back and forth to the various schools in our area with the occasional trip out of town. This car has been meticulously maintained by our local Volkswagen dealership with all maintenance done at the specified intervals. We are the second owner and purchased this vehicle with a little over 7000 miles on it.

This vehicle is one of the finest examples of German engineering and is highly sought after because of its rarity and fine reputation. It has a very powerful 315bhp twin-turbocharged diesel engine with a HUGE 553lb-ft. of torque which is better that most trucks have. This is a heavy SUV and full of all sorts of safety features. Despite its weight it gets excellent fuel mileage at 22-26 mpg Highway and 18-20mpg around town. It is a very comfortable and easy-to-drive vehicle for in town driving or open road touring. This model has the 'winter package' which has both front and back, left and right individual climate controls. It even has a pass-through from the rear luggage area through the back seat complete with bag for skis and poles for ski buffs.

It has every option available including navigation (NAVI) with discs that include all USA and Canada, premium factory sound system with the optional 6-disc cd player, keyless entry with two remotes, front and rear parking sensors, power heated memory front seats with three memory settings, heated steering wheel which is also power adjustable, heated and remote controlled outside mirrors, and it even has a cooling feature in the glove box to keep a water bottle cold. It features an adjustable/removeable luggage rack, all-weather floor mats and rear cargo tray. It also has the powered moon roof and window shades for the rear door windows.

This has the Tip-Tronic automatic transmission with a manual mode. It has adjustable height suspension for off-road use (which we never used). It also has high and low speeds in four wheel drive mode. The tires are NITTO TERRA GRAPPLER All-Terrain tires with a little over 20,000 miles on them so still have good tread life (see pictures).  It is a non-smoker vehicle and interior upholstery is in excellent condition.

The outside finish has minor imperfections from normal road use but is in overall very good to excellent condition. This has been one of the best cars we have ever owned and it is with regret that we are selling but it is time to move on. It is a bargain compared to the new ones which I believe are in the 70k+ range and with such low mileage should give someone years of enjoyment. I have included lots of pictures to show as much as possible about this vehicle. This vehicle has never been in an accident.

Volkswagen Multivan Alltrack Concept takes the luxury van life off road

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Volkswagen 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.

UAW tactics called into question at VW's TN plant

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

The United Auto Workers is in hot water with some of the very workers it is trying to unionize at Volkswagen's Chattanooga assembly plant. According to The Tennessean, eight Volkswagen factory workers have filed complaints against the UAW with the National Labor Relations Board, claiming the union "misled or coerced" them into formally asking for union representation.
The UAW has instituted a major push at the Chattanooga plant to represent the 2,500 hourly laborers that build the VW Passat by using what's called a card-check process. The tactic is opposed by the National Right to Work Legal Defense foundation, the group representing the workers. The card-check process demands that a company recognize a union that obtains the signatures of more than half its workforce, according to The Tennessean. This tactic is in contrast to the more traditional route, which sees employees vote on union representation.
The workers filing the complaint claim that the UAW told them the cards merely called for a secret ballot, rather than an outright demand for union representation. Workers also allege that the UAW has made it overly difficult to reclaim their signed cards, some of which were signed so long ago that they have been rendered invalid. Although the cards can force a company's hand, federal law still allows the company to ask for a secret ballot before yielding to unionized workers.

2015 Volkswagen GTI: Clicking, beeping, and trying to stay cool [w/video]

Mon, Aug 3 2015

My first car didn't have air conditioning. Well, that's not entirely true. The car had A/C, it just didn't work. Nevertheless, I survived summer after summer of sweating behind the wheel – par for the course in a 15-year-old Mitsubishi with 235,000 miles on the odometer. But it's another thing entirely when that same experience happens in a 2015 Volkswagen GTI after just 7,000 miles of use. That's how Autoblog kicked off summer with the long-term GTI: sweating in plaid seats. The car went to Suburban Volkswagen in Troy, MI, where the technicians told me the air-con just needed a recharge (despite asking them to inspect it further). They recharged it, the air blew cold, and 48 hours later, the A/C stopped working again. (Surprise!) The problem was a leak in the compressor/condenser line, so a new one was installed, the system was charged, and now it's fixed. For real this time. Unfortunately, that second-coming happened during a road trip with editor-in-chief Mike Austin at the helm. His logbook comments are, as you'd expect, appropriately salty. "Everybody loves the GTI, right? Not quite. I drove to Toronto for a weekend. On the way home, the A/C quit working. This wasn't too much of a problem until we hit the border control line to re-enter the United States. I always pick the slow line, somehow. Thusly baked in the heat, with outside temperatures above 80, the GTI didn't cool back down for the rest of the trip. Then I learned we already fixed the A/C once." "Of course, any car on that day with a surprise A/C failure would earn my ire," Austin notes. "It just seems a little more irritating on a new car. Otherwise, yeah, this is a great car." A great car, indeed. Everyone loves spending time with the GTI. It's got plenty of power, it's quiet, it's comfortable, and it eats up highway miles. We've got just over 10,000 miles on the odometer as of this writing, and as summer carries on, many editors have requested extended periods of seat time in the GTI for weekend getaways and longer road trips. But it's still not perfect. Following the A/C fiasco, there's another, more curious problem plaguing the GTI. Every time the car starts, a weird, varied-tempo, loud clicking is heard from the dash. We think it's coming from the direction of the glovebox, and it's not the same click patten every time. Sometimes it's one or two knocks, sometimes it's several. See what I mean in the video below. Weird, right? Another trip to Suburban Volkswagen offered no help.
