2002 Vw Beetle Tdi 5-speed, Clean Car, Needs Work. No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Forest Hill, Maryland, United States
|
This is a 2002 Beetle TDI that is owned by an elderly customer of ours, it is a clean car overall but has an engine issue. The car runs and drives ok, but does smoke excessively at start up, and intermittently while driving, the engine runs rougher than it should, and the oil pressure light will come on after it fully warms up. The customer declined to do further diagnostics on the engine as they do not want to put any more money into the car. I suspect that it has bottom end problems, but we are too busy with our day to day work to take it apart and diagnose. We need the room in our parking lot, so this needs to go.
The car is pretty clean for the year, the body is not bad other than the damaged lower front bumper. The seats have had covers on them for awhile, the upholstery looks pretty good underneath them, maybe a few stains. The car has been maintained pretty well by the owner, brakes, tires etc. all look good. Pretty much everything seems to work, the check engine light and airbag warning light are on. The timing belt service was done at 79k miles. We can cooperate with a shipper if you need us to for loading etc., and we can hold car up to 30 days as long as it is fully paid for. We ask for a $200 Paypal deposit within 2 days of auction end, and balance of payment within 7 days by cash or cashier's check. Check this link for a short video I took of the car running today. http://youtu.be/z2pQB6rRLlc Thanks for looking! |

UAW angered over VW workers getting right to defend anti-union vote
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The United Auto Workers have called a decision by the National Labor Relations Board allowing anti-UAW employees at the Volkswagen factory in Chattanooga the right to defend voting down unionization at the plant "an outrage."
You'll recall that the union was defeated by a vote of 712 to 626 in a contentious February election. The UAW claims the outcome was unfairly swayed by pro-business, anti-union forces, including Senator Bob Corker and political advocate Grover Norquist.
This new decision by the NLRB essentially gives workers backed by the anti-UAW National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation and Southern Momentum a formal voice in the impending hearing on the UAW's appeal of the vote.
Volkswagen lays off 500 Chattanooga workers
Fri, 19 Apr 2013The redesigned Volkswagen Passat has been a decent seller since its debut in 2011, but sales have apparently dropped off enough that the automaker is trimming some of the employees from its Chattanooga, TN assembly plant. According to Automotive News, Volkswagen will be cutting shifts and laying off 500 contracted workers in response to slowing sales.
Currently, the plant has three teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Saturday, but starting May 13, this will be reduced down to two teams running 10-hour shifts Monday through Thursday. This will be done to reduce dealer inventory (the article says that VW dealers, on average, have a 97-day supply of Passats) and production capacity (currently running at an annual pace of 170,000 units, which is more than the 150,000 annual units the plant was planned to produce).
This, of course, isn't saying that the Passat has been a failure since VW added 200 full-time employees to the plant in February 2012 to keep up with increased demand. The AN article says that automakers frequently overstaff plants during the launch of a new product - or in this case, a new product and a new plant - but eventually reduce the workers as things run smoother and more efficiently.
Volkswagen Golf Variant will make a lovely Jetta SportWagen
Tue, 05 Mar 2013In addition to several other versions of the Golf, Volkswagen is debuting the new Golf Variant (read: wagon) here at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show. And if this bigger version of the Golf looks like it might fit right at home in the States, it's because we could possibly see some version of this car as the next-generation Jetta SportWagen here on our shores.
Volkswagen is debuting the Golf Variant with two efficient diesel engines, rated at 110 and 150 horsepower, the smaller of which is good for an impressive 71.3 miles per gallon on the European cycle (when mated to a six-speed manual transmission). The Golf Variant also gets a version of Volkswagen's 4Motion all-wheel-drive system, making it incredibly all-weather capable.
It's a handsome estate, and it wears the new Golf's design language well. We can't say for sure if this car will actually make its way Stateside, but given the fact that the current Jetta SportWagen still rides on the old Golf platform, the odds look to be in our favor.
