Keep letting that oil drain Oilhammer because we like you posting! (y)

That's a great deal!

Saying, "As nice as the day it drove off the show room floor" would be an insult to this beauty! GLWS!

The rant must make the price of the car go up!

Any side photos with the doors closed? Car looks great. GLWS and to your pending lawn mowing business!

Lots of variables to consider. How many miles does it have? what's the body like? any rust? I always figure that in most areas of the USA, a running car is worth at least $2000 dollars.

What stations sell it? Just Mobile stations?

I had what I thought was a miss that usually showed up around 70mph and was intermittent. It threw no codes on VCDS. I changed the injector harness because I had over 250k and that fixed it. How many miles are on your car?

The mechanic that offered scrap value of $100 sounds like a real high class human. /s

Educate me on this: does that mean the original owner sold it back to VW???? What are the advantages of not having VW perform the upgrades???

What was the selling price?

GLWS!

I had been around diesels (not a mechanic) for many years before I heard that trick. Thanks for posting it to teach anyone else that hasn't heard it.

I had a similar issue with mine. I changed the injector harness despite not having any codes and it did cure it. Those intermittent things can be so hard to nail down. I had about 244k on the original injector harness so I figured a new OEM one would last the rest of the lifetime of the car...

I've always heard the quote about, "driving torque" as in it gives you that seat of the pants acceleration. In these tests what is the difference in numbers between stock and open exhaust? It surely can't be much. Also I would think it would be incredibly loud.
