DieselGate -> TDI pricing

TDIBone · Nov 23, 2015

Anyone have any recent experience in finding better deals on TDIs now the word is out on dieselgate? I haven't seen any noticable price drops in various ads, but that doesn't mean dealers aren't anxious to unload what they have.

There is a stop sale on all new VW TDI's from dealerships.

TDIBone · Nov 24, 2015

I know that. Just hoping someone has been TDI shopping recently and could share what they are finding. I ask here since US is totally different.

mjhandy · Nov 24, 2015

You're only option is to look at private TDI sales. I image prices will or have dropped as people try dumping their vehicles.

From what I've been seeing on kijiji nothing has changed unfortunately... All prices seem to have stayed around the same... The ones that are cheap raise concern since there isn't much of a description in the ads

mjhandy · Nov 24, 2015

it would be interesting to see how long a sale takes with everything going on.

If anything used prices will be going up, not down.

mjhandy · Nov 24, 2015

I was thinking they would drop if the used market become flooded. I wouldn't be surprised if people started to dump their TDIs.

Dealership send a letter to me ... they want my TDI ... says they are lacking inventory of used cars. I like my 11yr old TDI ... not selling or trading

We can only hope, but I just don't see it happening. I guess only time will tell.

Same here... Did not get a letter, but we love our TDI and it will not be SOLD at this time..., and if, I sell it PRIVAT

I picked up a 2012 Golf TDI (Comfortline) from a Toyota dealership a few weeks after 'dieselgate' happened. Deals can be found if you stay on top of what's for sale and you act quickly.

I found this car on Car Guru's.

Interesting read.

dealers are selling used TDI just not as CPO.

Any programs or incentives being offered to dealers from VW to help move inventory? Any V6 diesel programs like in the US where some dealers are slashing prices by $15k?

mjhandy · Nov 25, 2015

The can't sell any new or certified pre-owned, so not sure.

Even V6 diesels? Was hoping Moldova would be able to give us a little bit of insider info....

MoldovaDIZEL · Nov 25, 2015

$2000 customer appreciation for TDI 2.0 owners 09+ looking to trade theirs or buy another car with a gasoline motor is the promotion for new side+current other month to month incentives

For pre owned there are certainly good deals to be had, just financing is bank rate, so if paying cash or in need of financing a line of credit is best to use....

Yes even V6 TDI are selling but again not through the CPO program so no VW Financing/no VW certification standard/no vw extended warranty option, just sold as Ontario certified and e tested.

The V6 TDI is a communication issue between manufacture and federal agency, a quick easy fix....

Not bad, as long as the trade in value hasn't been depreciated due to this. Thought they call get my TDI from my cold dead hands

WolfsburgGolfTDI · Nov 25, 2015

Kinda sucks that people who may find a TDI for steal, won't be eligible for the $1000 from VW as of November 8th. Granted if they got a good deal on the car, the $1000 might not be worth it.
Happy I got my CPO a month before the dieselgate came to light.

LNXGUY · Nov 25, 2015

I think my next diesel is going to be a 335d, I just need to let Ken talk me into one

mjhandy · Nov 25, 2015

i like the X5d, we tried to look at a used M class diesel before we got the Treg.

WolfsburgGolfTDI · Nov 25, 2015

Neighbor just got a 335d and she loves it. The typical female putting diesel in her car stories as you see on here but still funny.

TDIFred · Nov 26, 2015

I also know a young woman who loves her diesel, had VWs before, leases and loves a BMW now, but says she is going back to VW...addicted to torque I guess. Not a bad addiction... :-D

They SAY that, but have read several stories of when push comes to shove the dealer give them the old "poor resale value" excuse.

Have been think 335d for a while now, but concerned about repair costs. Getting harder to find one with acceptable mileage that is not a base model. Since CAN/US$ conversion sucks, importing one is not feasible.

A local used car lot has two '13 Jetta TDIs with x <70k miles for around $14,500. That's what my VW dealer offered me for trade-in a few weeks ago. Before this news broke....a ~3 model year old Jetta TDI would have been around $17,500 in my area.

I saw this post, and hte comments we're great. Seems people didn't actually read the part about it being a fix for Europe, not NA

which would work for the exporter, not the importer. the dollar 'parity' or lack thereof, would make them too expensive
