2005 Passat TDI Wagon - Nashville TN
EDIT :This was my sisters wagon since 20,000 miles. I bought this from her and drove it a little the last year and a half. It still has less than 150,000 miles. It's time for the balance shaft delete or upgrade I think. It recently started shaking a little more at low rpms -- nice and smooth at higher rpms still so I parked it. Asking $6000 obo. I have an alh oil pump. If you buy the car and want to do the balance shaft delete, you can do it in my shop. I have too many cars and don't have time to do it and I want to invest in my old 4x4 truck that needs a lot of work. And i know if i do i'll want to keep the car
Email me for pics.
Here is the original post:
My sister is selling her 2005 TDI Passat wagon. She wants something that seats 7. It has been in the family since it had 20,000 miles and has been perfectly maintained with VW spec oil.
The timing belt was done by MoGolf i believe at 100,000 . It has lifetime warranty RAxles. The dealer replaced the turbo at 75,000 miles (probably unnecessarily). I just replaced the 300.00 turbo boost hose from turbo to intercooler pipe this week. Really, that hose was 300.00 after tax at the dealer and that was the shop price.
We also did all the brake pads and I believe rotors last month and did a power flush with my cool new power bleeder.
1 month ago the transmission was rebuilt as it wouldn't go in reverse. That was 2500.00 and done by a great transmission guy here in Nashville who does a lot of VW and Audi and Mercedes. It still has 11 months on the warranty. It shifts perfect and drives perfect.
I replaced the radiator about 6 months ago with a brand new one. Also, the upper boost hose elbow was replaced a year ago and the other boost hose on the intercooler side was replaced last year.
All the glow plugs and computer tune for updated glowplugs were done this week at dealer under the recall. It has Yakima roof rack bars. It has the gorilla gear rear cargo cover mat and the rear sliding cover to hid your stuff in the trunk area.
Maintenance wise, this thing is ready for the road. It's never seen any wvo (but it would if i bought it). Its loaded with heated leather seats and radio controls on steering wheel, Monsoon sound system. Email me and i'll send you pics.
The car is in Nashville, Tn. Asking $11500.00. Email peterspeltz@gmail.com or call or text 615-585-2715 . Thanks.
