2003 Volkswagen Passat W8 Variant (Wagon) B5.5
- 164,702 KM (+ possibly 1 or 2km as the car has been moved around a few times since the photo) - Blue exterior - Black leather interior - Climate Control - Power Locks, Power Windows, Power heated mirrors - Viper Valet remote start - 2+ keys - Sunroof - HID's - R-Line Grill (OEM Grill also included) - Compact spare tire - AM/FM/CD/Cassette/6 disc changer (Factory Monsoon with steering wheel controls) - Cruise - Heated Seats Overall, the car is in decent condition but it does have some issues. - Car is not driveable. Engine runs extremely rough. Possibly the timing chain skipped as is seems to be misfiring on the entire left bank. Codes include misfires, cam sensor, cam adjuster, torque converter. - Shifter will not physically go into the lowest gear. Feels like the cable is stuck on something. However the car shifts into all gears fine when in Drive or by using the TipTronic shift. The car was running fine and dandy. I stopped somewhere and turned the car off. When I returned it would barely start and did not have enough power to drive. Makes a lot of noise around the timing chain area. Mechanic is confident that no valves are bent at this point. - Drivers door sensor is not functioning. This means that the car does not know when the drivers door is open. With this car, when you unlock it, it has a time delay where it expects to see a door open. If a door doesn't open in this time period it re-arms security. Since it can't tell if the drivers door is open, you have to put the key in the ignition within this time frame to prevent auto re-arming. - Drivers heated seat not working properly. The control has 5 levels. On 5 (highest) the seat gets uncomfortably hot. On 4 its off. Thought to be the switch. - Various scratches (See photos) - one "flap" on the left dash vent doesn't operate - New passenger tie rod end, alignment and 1 tire less than 3000 km ago. (all season tires) - New R-Line grill. OEM grill included. (But not the W8 grill badge. I would like to keep it for sentimental reasons) - Interior in good overall condition. Minor scuffs here and there. - Homelink not broken! - New K&N Air filter - Not even installed yet - 3 new K&N oil filters - New balance belt and tensioner - in box, not installed. - Passenger HID intermittently won't stay lit. (The car has Daytime Running Lamps. When you turn on the key, the headlights ignite. At this point the passenger headlight always lights. Once you start/crank the engine, the headlights go out then reignite when the key is let go. Its at this time they headlight doesn't always come back on. Seems to be a common problem as you can read about it on forums. ) - Car has adhesive oil pan heater in place. Untested by me as I have not had the car through a winter. - Has a "gorilla gear" cargo liner in good shape. Slight curling on some of the corners. - Fuel pump controller in perfect condition. When I got the car I checked it out and it was dry. I bagged it and sealed it to prevent future problems. - Remote starter transmitter battery is getting low. It intermittently doesn't send a signal. (There is only 1 remote for the starter) - Everything else works fine. (Sunroof, radio, climate control, door locks, etc etc. ) - Note the fog light grill is out as that is where the tow hook is and we needed to winch it on the trailer. The OEM fog light grills are in bad shape. I have new aftermarket ones from ebay to be included. - Right hand fog light has been modified to accept a Vision X Solstice Prime LED light. The intention was to do the other side as well. I would like to keep the light and as such there will be no RH foglight. Foglights can be found on eBay for about $35. Should you wish to keep the Vision X light, there will be an additional $175 payable above the auction price. You will also get the other Vision x Light for the left side, new in package. You can see the difference in the 10 watt LED versus the OEM 55 watt halogen. Bright! Car is currently equipped with a cellular mount / amplifier and a dashcam. These items are not included. I live about 60 miles North of International Falls, MN in Ontario Canada. Car is currently located in Winnipeg, Manitoba. For all intents and purposes, the pickup location will be Winnipeg. Winnipeg is a big centre and has rail and truck transportation for automobiles. Depending on your plans, you may need to budget ~$100 to have it towed to the carrier. It fits fine on a Uhaul Auto Transport. Car can be seen and started with an appointment during normal business hours. Awesome car. I just am not in a position to fix it and it will be missed dearly. Car is as-is / where-is with no warranty and is currently not in a drivable condition. Short of the engine problem the car will pass Ontario and/or Manitoba safety inspections. Suspension, Steering, Brakes, Lights, Glass, etc are all good.

Volkswagen reveals Golf GTI Clubsport concept at Worthersee
Wed, May 13 2015The various brands under the Volkswagen Group umbrella are bringing a slew of hot hatch concepts to the GTI-Treffen in Worthersee, Austria, this week – but the gathering wouldn't be complete without a version of the headline Volkswagen Golf GTI. And here it is. Previewed with initial details and a trio of design sketches last week, VW has now released a proper array of images showing the GTI Clubsport concept. The enhanced GTI packs an upgraded version of the stock version's 2.0-liter turbo four with 261 horsepower on tap, favorably splitting the difference between the standard GTI with the Performance package and the more potent Golf R. An overboost function even kicks in an extra 10-percent more horsepower to bring peak output up to 287 hp – just a few horses shy of the R's 292, but driving only the front wheels. As you can see, the Clubsport concept also features a more aggressive aero kit as well as upgraded rolling stock with semi-slick rubber. Most, if not all, of these enhancements are earmarked to find their way onto a 40th anniversary edition GTI, but we're unlikely to see that model in US showrooms. World premiere of the Golf GTI Clubsport at Lake Worthersee - Exclusive anniversary model for 40th birthday of the GTI - Golf GTI Clubsport debuts with 265 PS and boost function Next year, the Golf GTI celebrates its 40th birthday. Volkswagen is marking this historic event with a progressive anniversary model: the new Golf GTI Clubsport. Volkswagen will be showcasing the Golf GTI Clubsport on 14th May as part of the legendary GTI meet at Lake Worthersee, when it will make its world premiere in the form of a near-production concept car. With a power output of 195 kW / 265 PS (35 PS more than the Golf GTI Performance) and top performance temporarily increased by around a further 10 per cent thanks to a boost function, the Golf GTI Clubsport is set to take off at the start of 2016 as the most powerful production 'GTI' yet. The anniversary model is being launched not only with an extremely powerful engine, but also with an individualised interior and exclusive bodywork details. The design modifications include a completely new front bumper, new side sills, a new and aerodynamically highly innovative roof-edge spoiler and a specially developed rear diffuser. All of these features were designed with the aim of further enhancing the GTI's performance and of thereby bringing form and function into perfect harmony.
Sunday Drive: Variety is the spice of life
Sun, Nov 12 2017If there's any one new vehicle the entire world is anxiously waiting for, it's the Jeep Wrangler. Yes, of course the iconic off-roader has a loyal following here in America, but you could plop a Wrangler pretty much anywhere on the globe and everybody will know what it is. Put simply, the redesigned 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL has big, muddy shoes to fill, and the readers of Autoblog are just as interested in the Wrangler's rebirth as anyone else. Moving along, we were fortunate enough last week to spend a bit of time in nearly every version of the venerable Volkswagen Golf all in one day. There isn't a Golf we don't like, but there's one, easily identifiable by its three-digit name, that stands above all the rest: GTI. We think it's the best Golf you can buy, even if there's an R-badged variant that slots above the GTI in VW hierarchy. Rounding out our recap are three vehicles that could hardly be more different. The 2019 GMC Sierra, which was seen wearing pretty light camouflage, is a truck. The Lamborghini Terzo Millennio – which isn't going to go on sale, ever, at any price – is a conceptual supercar. And the Honda CB1000R is a retro-themed naked standard motorcycle. Variety really is the spice of life. 2018 Jeep Wrangler spy shot mega gallery Driving nearly every VW Golf: Base, GTI, R, Alltrack — here's what we learned 2019 GMC Sierra spied sporting just a thin wrapping The Lamborghini Terzo Millennio is a brutally fantastic EV supercar concept Honda unveils 2 new motorcycles, including retro-flavored CB1000R Image Credit: Brian Williams GMC Honda Jeep Lamborghini Volkswagen Technology Truck Convertible Crossover Hatchback SUV Performance sunday drive vw golf gti lamborghini terzo millennio
