• The TDIClub classifieds section is a heavily trafficked section of the forum that encompasses want-to-buy (WTB) and for-sale (FS) threads for the entire world. Due to the demanding nature and fast pace of this section, it is imperative that you know and understand the rules. It is also important to remember that this is the only parts classifieds section.

    Cross-posting and posting classifieds in the regional sections (except the dedicated thread in Ontario) is not permitted.

    Multiple items should be sold in one thread. Make sure to provide a description for all items in your post along with pictures and prices. If you start multiple threads with individual items, they will be locked or combined at the discretion of the moderators.

    Here is a quick outline of the classifieds section rules. If you don't follow these rules, you subject yourself to thread deletion, thread combination, infractions, or posting privilege revocation.

    Thread titles:
    • Put FS or WTB in your thread title. This will let other users know if you are selling or buying.
    • Briefly describe what you are selling. Thread titles have limited space. Be as descriptive, yet succinct, as possible.
    • Put your location in the title.
    • If space allows, put your price in the title

    Title example (single item): "FS: 2004 Mk4/BEW cylinder head - Portland, OR - $500"
    Title example (multiple items): "FS: MK6 fog lights, front bumper, headlights, grill - Detroit, MI"
    Title example (car part-out): "FS: Mk3 Jetta parting out engine & interior - Dallas, TX"

    Thread text descriptions and pictures:
    • All for-sale threads must include pictures of the items that you are selling. One picture is sufficient, but multiple pictures with different angles will help buyers. A picture is worth a thousand words. If you don't know how to post pictures on TDIClub, see this thread: http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=286691
    • All for-sale threads must include a description. We don't charge per-word, so be as descriptive as possible. The more information you can provide, the easier it will be for buyers.
    • All for-sale threads must include a price. Auctions and bidding are not allowed. If you want to auction something off, use eBay.
    No picture, no price, NO SALE!

    Thread maintenance/updates/bumps:
    • When you sell something, update your thread with "SOLD!" Moderators will close the thread and update the title.
    • If you have multiple items for sale, update your thread as each item has been sold. When everything has been sold, updated the thread with "ALL ITEMS SOLD!" Moderators will close the thread and update the title when all items have been sold.
    • If you bump your thread, please delete old bumps by clicking on EDIT and then deleting the old bump. This will reduce clutter in your thread and make it easier to read. It also makes you look less desperate.
    • If you drop your price, please update your first post in addition to posting the new price. If you would like the thread title changed, click on the report post icon and let a moderator know what you would like the title changed to.

    Moderator intervention and infraction points:
    Moderators will be monitoring the classifieds section. If a moderator determines that you have not been following the rules listed above, corrections will be made and infraction points will be assessed to your account.

    What is an infraction point? Simple - it's a system of keeping track of user behavior. A moderator can assign a point value based on the severity of the infraction, as well as an expiration date on the points assessed. If you accumulate a certain number of points, the system will auto-ban you for a predefined amount of time. The more points you accumulate, the longer your ban period will be.

    One example of points is as follows: multiple threads will be combined into a single thread, with the number of infraction points assessed corresponding to the number of threads merged. If we merge four threads into one, then you will be assessed four points that expire in 30 days. When you reach five points, the system will auto-ban you for one day.*

    *This is an example based on the current infraction system structure. We reserve the right to modify the infraction system at any time without notice or updates to this announcement.

    Thank you for your cooperation, and good luck with your sales and searches! :)

Please read below this is for sale , along with the wire harness, and the European Tow springs to make this a complete package (Brake controller is NOT included) Bought a bigger trailer and truck , and parked the Jetta due to the TDI emissions.
Spent well over $1000 canadian to have this built
i will also include the lower Valance if we swap ours , as it need to be cut out
all of this for $500
Custom Hitch
4 pin wire harness
7 pin Connector
Euro Tow springs
and Valance swap if needed
Contact me for any questions smaislin@rogers.com
I had posted a few replies on some other threads about my 2" hitch I made
well I made another version of it , and this time I actually used it to tow my 2016 Forest River Cherokee Wolf pup 16bhs 3077# trailer 377# tongue weight. (just once , but was on several major highways and she towed perfectly).
I designed and built a custom hitch the 2.0 version was made of 2"x 21/8" sold steel , which slid into the frame of the car and was bolted in with 4 per side 1/2-13 x2" long grade 8 bolts with fender and lock washers (2 from the side and 2 from the bottom using existing holes.
YES this does fit with the DEF tank as the bolt holes are there, and I have had 2 TDI's 2011 and 201[/B]5
I had the main brackets water jet cut out to my dimensions and then had the parts drilled and tapped , I test fit it and tack welded it in place , once everything was good I had it professionally welded (as i am not), it was then coated with truck bed liner to protect it
I powered the tail light 4 pin converter and the 7 pin trailer connector , with a 4 awg cable ran from the battery to a 3 way re-settable breaker in the trunk
I towed the trailer with Curt 600# weight distribution with anti sway Tekonsha prodigy RF brake controller , I used the European Rear tow springs , installed crossed drilled and slotted rotors, with Carbon ceramic pads in the front.
The car towed it perfectly with this set up, yes you feel it , but had no issues on the 2 hour drive back from the dealer where i picked it up from (used the 400,407,401,24,9 hwy's)
The sad part is I only got to tow it once , I sold the trailer the next day
(to good of an opportunity to pass up and purchased a much larger trailer , which I am not going to tow it with the Jetta, I know the limits )
So now I will take the springs and the hitch off and return her back to a non towing monster (hitch and springs can be for sale)
I have a family and I feel perfectly fine towing this unit with them in the car
Hitch was over built and the trailer had it own brakes. The westy hitch was very thin and still was rated for 3500#'s but not enough tongue weight
The Tow springs made a huge difference and really helped prevent sag. The DSG worked great! when i towed it home I also had many many pounds of tools on the trunk to help simulate what I would have in there on a trip.

Where in Canada?
Also, would you sell the tow springs separate? Are the springs new, or used?
