I originally bought the 2003 tdi golf for my wife because her job moved to 60 miles away, but after 7 years, my bmw was having a ton of electrical issues so I made her a proposition. Instead of me getting a replacement vehicle, she could get the new beetle she always wanted now that she is...
225,000 on my 2003 golf tdi. Going to need the timing belt changed at 230,000.
The 01m is still holding up, but I have a manual on standby just in case.
I love how these cars just keep going and going, probably never see that again with future cars now that vw diesels are done in the US.
Thanks for the update, I'm glad it's still going good on the upgrade. That GSW sound like a lot of fun too!
I'm going to be starting on updating my 2003 golf tdi this fall. I have the 6-speed and the conversion kit ready to go, but I want to do the shift fork fix before I put it in the car...
I got an update from him today via email. I think he is just very busy gathering our parts and trying to keep up with his business, but I agree with the others here that believe it is well worth it for the savings you get working with Frans.
That is one sweet ride !
I would love to buy her, but I am broke from ordering a manual transmission conversion kit last month.
I hope she goes to a good home.
Great choice, those 2003 Golf TDI's are the best ! (that's what I have too)
Except mine's an automatic that I am ordering a six speed for this weekend...
I'm new here too, welcome.
