    Kenwood Stereo with Sirius for Passat or Jetta FS

    I gotta get some sort of cred for thread longevity in the classifieds, don't I? I really want/need $100 in my hands when we're done. That plus actual shipping and PP fees? Bonus for local exchange (buyer bearing beer...)

    3 Glow Plugs FS

    Greets. I've been absent for a good while from the board, and the car that these are from is long gone. But, I thought somebody might be able to use these: The part number is visible; Bosch 0 250 202 022-3B0. Fit a '99.5 A4 Jetta TDI, probably among others. One croaked, I replaced all four...

    Kenwood Stereo with Sirius for Passat or Jetta FS

    Bumpola Also: Wanted to mention that 1) This unit will probably fit any VW or other vehicle that has a double-sized DIN opening in the dash. 2) You will need an active Sirius subscription for the satellite to work. All they need to set you up is the unit serial #. Takes about five minutes...

    Kenwood Stereo with Sirius for Passat or Jetta FS

    Ancient thread price change bumpola! I had had it with the OE stereo in my Jetta, but didn't want to hack up the dash to upgrade. I went to Crutchfield and bought this system. I liked it so much that I transplanted it to the Passat when I bought it. It fits perfectly in the double DIN...

    Oil Filter FS-Charlotte area

    Greets. Anybody in the greater Charlotte area need an oil filter and drain plug (with washer) for a TDI? This is the Mahle filter, and I presume OE drain plug with captive crush washer. It was ordered for a 2005 Passat TDI, but I'm pretty sure it fits all A4 and B5.5 TDIs, perhaps others. Be...

    Is diesel worth the additional expense?

    There is an extensive article in the newest Motor Trend discussing the history of automotive diesels in the US. It touches on new technology, fuel costs, etc. The part that I haven't finished, but is very telling is the miles to payoff for the difference in purchase cost on diesels vs gas...

    2005 Passat GLS FS-NC

    I've had a couple questions about the Rocketchip. As you'll read elsewhere here on the board, the experience is overwhelmingly positive for the modification. I've had 47K trouble-free miles. However, if a buyer would prefer that it be returned to stock, I'm sure I can arrange for that.
