HI! Up for sale I have a 2005 TURBO DIESEL VW Passat. I have owned this car for 3 years. I am the third owner. Since I have owned the car I have fixed everything that has or could go wrong. Mechanically: this car runs and drives VERY smooth. The transmission was replaced and installed NEW in 2012. $4000 (receipt to prove) all work done by VW. Next, I replaced the notorious (for this year) Camshaft. Since I had the head off this car I replaced all valves, guides, and followers essentially a BRAND NEW head (1800$). I then replaced all belts, tensioners, and gaskets (intake/exhaust/valve cover) with brand new OEM equipment (all ordered from BORAparts.com). Brand new GATES timing belt, timing tensioner, serpentine belt, serpentine tensioner. Last I replaced the tires, brakes, and the starter ( the old starter was ok but slowly going out, the new one has a LT warranty from Oreilleys) The only other issue that I had was the flap motor (another notorious failure of this car) I replaced this with the new upgraded flap motor from BORAparts.com ($490). All of this work has been done within the last 5000 miles in my shop by Everett and Brett Palmer (please feel free to read up on either of them in TDI forums user name is diesales one of the best TDI Techs around). The last of the notorious BHW failures is the much controversial Balance Shaft issue. Brett Palmer pulled off the cover to the oil pump and verified the Balance Shaft is in PERFECT mechanical condition. Some cars have it but many do not. Many of these Passats that have over 300 even 400,000 miles with the original Balance shaft. I believe there was a bad "batch" of Passats that had this unfortunate Balance shaft issue. Rest assured, mine has been inspected by a TRUSTED Mechanic and has been cleared as mechanically perfect. Fresh oil, coolant as well as air filter oil filter fuel filter and cabin filter were all done within the last 5000 miles. The car had an alignment done within the last 10,000 miles and drives beautifully down the road. This car is ready for another 100,000 miles!!!! Interior: The interior of this car is a 8.5/10. The leather seats are still in great condition with no rips. The heated elements work great on both driver and passenger side. The carpet is VERY nice considering the mileage. The original carpet mats are still in VERY good condition as well. Monsoon stereo cd/tape player. Steering wheel controls for the stereo are an extra benefit to this car. Automatic windows and locks, as well as automatic sunroof. Exterior: The paint on this car is absolutely beautiful. The previous owners took extremely well car of this vehicle. I have a two inch stack of maintenance paperwork that included EVERY 10,000 maintenance from 10,000 all the way to 190,000 and any replacement in between. The tires have 90% tread life left on 80,000 mile rated all season tires. These tires include transferable warranty thought discount tire. Equipped with ESP, in conjunction with the tires, there is nothing this car cant plow through rain or snow this winter season. The only flaw to the exterior is a 12 inch by 1 inch dent in the rear passenger door. This car needs NOTHING. Hop in and drive anywhere. Highway mileage is 42mpg, city is around 35mpg. This is a very luxurious Turbo Diesel car, in excellent condition. Car is currently located in Ida, MI (just north of Toledo, OH) Feel free to email or call with any questions. 419-345-1732 |

Car and Driver shows off awesome 1960s ads
Fri, Sep 11 2015Someone must have recently rediscovered the keys to the archives at Car and Driver, and the access has been put to good use. Following last month's fantastic look at automotive ads from the '50s, there's now a new gallery running from March 1960 through December 1969. This collection provides a great overview of a decade full of iconic cars. If you're a fan of Carroll Shelby, particularly his Mustangs, then there's a lot to love among this group. One ad from July 1965 aimed to sell the GT350, but with an ocean of text and a tiny picture, it probably could've used a once-over by Don Draper's team. By December '65, the copywriters ironed out the problems with a spot proclaiming boldly "Shelby GT350 is 'Son of Cobra.'" The company offered some great accessories, too. For those into European motoring, there's a humorous attempt to sell the Alfa Romeo Giulia as both a racecar and family hauler. Toyota also boasts about the winning record for the 2000GT. Among the best text comes from BMW for lines like: "What's BMW got? The most advanced high-performance engine in any production car, for a cruising speed of 100 mph." Of course, Volkswagen's famous "Lemon" ad for the Beetle also gets its due here. Separately, each of these ads is fascinating, but taken together they tell the story of a great decade of motoring. Go give them all a read at Car and Driver.

Volkswagen Touareg hybrid axed for 2016
Fri, Aug 7 2015Volkswagen is axing the Touareg hybrid for the 2016 model year. At a starting price of $67,905 (after $910 destination), the 2015 version sat at the top of the Touareg range, but it didn't offer significantly improved fuel economy for the extra money. The hybrid was only three miles per gallon city and one mpg highway better than the base V6. Another hurdle for potential buyers: the entry-level diesel had even better highway mileage and cost over $14,000 less. Earlier this year, Nissan made a similar decision to scrap the Pathfinder hybrid, and the future for the QX60 hybrid is murky. Volkswagen has a few other adjustments in store for the 2016 Touareg. The biggest change is that the whole lineup sees about $2,000 sliced off the price. According to Car and Driver, the adjustment knocks $2,090 off the base price to bring things to $42,705. In addition, the Lux and Executive trims now get standard 14-way power adjustable and ventilated seats, and the two of them are also offered with new, 21-inch wheels. The Executive also now gets power adjustment on the steering column and a suite of safety tech, including adaptive cruise control, forward collision warning, autonomous emergency braking, and lane departure warning.

Tanner Foust drifts in with new VW Passat [w/video]
Thu, Apr 9 2015Tanner Foust, like many drifting and rallycross names, may have had a long track record with Ford, campaigning Blue Oval drifters in Formula D, the X Games and the Global RallyCross Championship. He won a few medals with Nissan too. But these days he's all about the Volkswagens. He drives a Beetle in the aforementioned GRC, but is now set to return to Formula Drift with the Passat you see here. The Top Gear USA co-host's new ride is ostensibly based on the German sedan we all know, but instead of a 1.8 turbo, a V6, a TDI or even a W8, this one packs a 7.4-liter V8. That mammoth mill sends about 700 horsepower to the rear wheels through a four-speed transmission, but will churn out a good 900 hp on nitrous. In short, it should be better suited towards drifting than the Passat 4Motion this writer tried to slide so many times in his youth. The beast is sponsored once again by Rockstar Energy, and we're looking forward to watching Tanner use it to try and retake the titles he won in 2007 and 2008.
