    2003 Jetta TDI Part Out (only 105K miles)

    Don't give him a hard time for parting it out. Nobody wants one here in the east. No rust. Clean. Bent valve. Heck, the seats don't even look like they've been sat in. I've been trying to sell off for 5 months now, but no one wants it. Hate to see a clean ALH go myself. But I'm not...

    To swap or not to swap - manual/auto

    Andy, sales post is here. We've dropped to $3500. Looking around, looks high in comparison. Though I'd argue the condition of the car should help excuse the price difference with others <$3000. It looks like the prices have dropped overall by 20-25% after the VW inspection fiasco.

    Bump for another round. These cars are not in bad shape! We owned the 2002 for 11 years and the 2001 for 3. Bought the latter off coworker (lady) who worked beside me at work.

    Black 2001 TDI with 5-speed, bad motor, Raleigh NC - $1800

    Thanks for the honest opinion, though I would hope you were wrong too! Agree that TDI prices have somewhat fallen, though they were even slightly up a few months ago. Seeing the stable low gas prices would impact that. In one way, it's sad. Was wondering how long the A4 TDIs would be...

    Black 2001 TDI with 5-speed, bad motor, Raleigh NC - $1800

    Friday is coming quick! Not even crickets out there. Thought someone up north would have a rusted out Golf/Jetta with a good motor. (to be fair, one guy did contact me from WI with the first ad with that exact situation)

    Road trip distance?

    2013, drove my 2001 Jetta TDI (5 speed) from Raleigh, NC to San Antonio Texas. Our son was having his 4th surgery down there (the other 3, my wife flew with him down there and rented a car). We made a quick trip over to NM to Roswell and Carlsbad Caverns. Trip was great. Want to believe we...

    2001 Black Jetta TDI 5 speed all good except motor - NC

    Giving this one last shot here. Lowering the price to $1800 firm. If not sold a week from Friday, I'm going to pull it into the garage and start parting her out. Really hate to do it. This TDI is in very good condition. It's been babied. She got 48.6mpg over the last 3 years for me...

    2001 Black Jetta TDI 5 speed all good except motor - NC

    Looked at the motor a little more. TB is in place. Turned the motor over for a few seconds. Can hear a valve get slapped by a piston. So minimum of a broke valve. Can't say that the TB didn't jump though. Just trying to give a little more info.
