Know it’s bad form to join and sell, but we are keeping one TDI (2002 manual Jetta), just have to offload the Passat for a snow-friendly car for a move to MN. I also don’t want the winter up there to tear up this car.
194k
40/34mpg (we’ve clocked for the last year)
2019 AC
2019 tires
No-leak moonroof
Heated, gray leather seats
Roll-up rear storage shade
One inch hitch
Roof rack
CD/cassette (broken digital readout, but all functions great)
Two years of repair receipts only, as we bought it January 2017
Ricky at Diesel Power of VA estimates $800 to replace fans, all else works as it should.
A couple deeper paint dings (Craigslist ad for all pics: https://richmond.craigslist.org/cto/d/maidens-vw-passat-tdi-gls/6909933267.html ), and, as ad says, family not included. $4200 OBO
Not an expert but respect TDI enthusiasm so trying to find a buyer who appreciates this car. Welcome all questions.

For that era Passat diesel, 2 questions should always be addressed in a Classifieds posting.
What has been done about the balance shaft?
What has been done about the transmission?


I do like the looks of a nice while B5 Passat wagon.

Look at pictures
Not leather
GL was no SR, no alloy wheels, and IIRC correctly, cloth seats
Leather was a package above GLS, with steering wheel buttons, and ugly wood trim.

Per a few "online resources" for Passat changes over the years

2005: W8 engine dropped. Leatherette trimmed seats replace cloth in the GL and GLS. Heated front seats are standard in the GLS.
