I have a ‘09 Jetta TDI that is included in the VW emissions scandal. I decided to sell it back to VW because it has many issues for a car that has 120k. VW is obligated to pay me $13.3k for my ‘09. A deal too good to pass up.
So I bought this as a replacement. My new ‘03 Golf 4dr TDI 5MT. Found it on Craigslist a few hours after it was posted. Stumbled on it really as CL cars are usually junk so I don't check it very often.
Has ~ 160k. Very clean. Second owner has modified it but not in an extreme way.
[*]Bosio Power Plus 520 Nozzles
[*]Malone "torque bliss" stage 2 tune
[*]SMF conversion with south bend clutch
[*]Audi TT control arms and new bushings
[*]Audi TT short shift kit
[*]Koni adjustable struts and shine springs.
[*]Metal skid plate
[*]Euro headlights
[*]Other stuff I can't remember
I also got a roof rack and 3 gallons of Rotella T6 and 2 Gallons of Mobil TDT plus extra filters, wiper blades and extra parts.
Loving this car. Never driven a mechanical injection 8v 1.9 ALH but it's awesome! Has some clutch chatter from the SMF conversion. It has so much low end torque and is very happy at 2k rpm. Accelerates very strong up to 4K.
It's due for an oil change and fuel filter. Going to put in RLI 10w40 CJ-4 this week and a Bosch premium oil filter. Mann fuel filter as well.
