2001 VW Jetta TDI GLS
Auto - 203k miles - Clean Carfax - $1800
Atco NJ
Aftermarket Bluetooth CD player with Aux and USB
Runs and drives great but needs work
I had to move on to the next project, and have a few more before I will get back to this. It's just gonna sit for a while - figured somebody might want a deal that will end up being a nice little car. Especially for the manual transmission challenged or just tired of shifting. I know the manual is preferred and the auto is hated, but I'll tell you its nice to kick back and just push the go pedal. Tranny shifts fine.
Have records/receipts from previous owner going back 3 years and to 177k miles - $6200.00 worth of work done
Sep 2015 - 196k - replaced serpentine belt, roller, and tensioner pulley, LOF
May 2015 - 189k - replaced G68 trans speed sensor
Apr 2015 – 187k – replaced LR wheel bearing and speed sensor and LF lower ball joint
Jan 2015 - 182k - replaced fuse block on top of battery
Dec 2014 - 181k - Installed complete OEM Timing Belt Kit
Sep 2014 – 177k – replace front and back brakes, flush brake fluid, 4 new tires and alignment
Aug 2014 – 177k – replace glow plugs and LOF
The bad:
BODY
Has a little body rust - didnt care
Right front bumper loose - just needs some new fasteners
Bad pinstripe removal - didn't care but I'm sure it would come out with compounding
Dings like an old commuter - didn't care
Glove box broken - have new one
One vent broken - have whole dash
Suspension shot - have all the parts
MOTOR – 2 codes and blows smoke on heavy acceleration
17964 - Charge Pressure Control P1556 - 35-00 - Negative Deviation
Not burning oil so it’s definitely fuel. Planned to clean intake, flush injectors with Lubri Moly Diesel Purge, check for bad vac lines and air leaks, etc etc etc
16764 - Glow Plug/Heater (Q6) Circuit P0380 - 35-10 - Malfunction – Intermittent
Prob just clean/spray everything since it has recent glow plugs - worst case needs harness
A/C Compressor getting pretty noisy - have new one
Asking $1800 – which includes:
-New A/C Compressor
-Complete good replacement dash
-Complete good replacement glove box
-New shocks and struts
-New shock and strut install kit from ECS Tuning
-New sway bar bushings, brackets and links from boraparts
