No, it wouldn't be free. $900 + fuel costs to go down to Miami and back home to Tennessee. The under body of my 98 has some problem rust areas, but the motor and transmission still run like champs (395,×××). I thank you all for your insight and expertise. I will continue looking for a new home...
I own a 98 Jetta AHU. My wife's cousin is a mechanic, and his boss is willing to sell me a 2001 Jetta gasser; engine seized- for just under a grand. Beautiful car. bells and whistles, leather. I've talked them down over the past 6 months from $2000.

Serpentine idler pulley came apart while driving with the family. No one had one in stock. Took it off at the auto part store and JB Welded it back together. Changed driver wiper blade and walked to the pizza joint for lunch while it set up. Put it back on and drove (7 miles) home without...
What's the earliest Saturday to show up? Bringing my brother also. He's not a TDI owner (Scion tc), but he's excited! Scratch the IP seal replacement for me. I could use some eyes and suggestions concerning my car. I will bring some tools and lend a hand when and where possible. No Vag-Com here...
I'll be coming, as long as work doesn't require me to work OT that day. Straight shot down 24 for me. < 2 hour drive. Unless I take some scenic side roads (more interesting to drive).
