2001 VW Golf TDI 4 door
We love this car so much! We just got a Passat wagon as we decided we finally need more space... We are the second owners, got car at 85,000 miles. Now at 235,000+... we consistently get 46-48 MPG (with a roof rack on!). Recently we took a road trip and got a whopping 52 MPG (still with rack on!).
The Really Good:
-Brand new timing belt and water pump done by VW of Orchard Park on August 23, 2013
-Intake manifold and ERG valve cleaned out by VW of Orchard Park on March 5, 2013
-Panzer Plate Heavy Duty Aluminum Skid Plate Kit installed from Dieselgeek.com
-4 matched snow tires used for one season on newer steel rims
-2 key fobs with a valet key
-manual included
-mp3 cable in glove box (ipod not included:)
-Other things replaced: parking break cables, right front window regulator clips, hatch lock cylinder, fuel door button, front windshield washer nozzles, struts for hatch, armrest, rear window wiper motor, rear brakes and rotors last year
The Bad:
-Surface rust starting. Needs some attention.
-Climate control: fan, heater, and AC DOES NOT WORK! As we were thinking of selling, we decided to fix the AC (the heater and fan had worked well always). Dealer stated we needed a new compressor. Purchased new behr compressor,and receiver/drier from autohausAZ. Local shop installed. Dealer confirmed installation was completely correct. NOW fan, heater, and AC do not work. Dealer troubleshooted for an hour, but we did not want to pay for further diagnosing. They feel it is a computer glitch or a loose connection of some sort. Probably a small fix for someone with the time to find it. Up until this time the heater had worked great and the fan is strong.
-Glove box handle broke (still can open fine)
-Rear window wiper spray does not work
-Homemade rear compartment cover strings that lift it up with the door (works perfectly good)
-Rear plastic interior around hatch is loose from my replacing the rear window motor. All stays in place just fine
-Driver's door lock cylinder is loose, needs pinned
We will be happy to deliver within 100 miles of Salamanca, NY.
Thanks for looking, this car is awesome!

Prop-driven VW Beetle hopes to land in Bonneville [w/video]
Thu, 10 Jan 2013Sometimes you meet folks who, when they tell you "Hey, I have an idea," your reflex response is to stop what you're doing and tell yourself, "Get ready...." We imagine Mike Niemans is one of those folks, and the idea in question is putting a tank engine on a Type 1 Volkswagen Beetle. Not just any old tank engine - as if there were such a thing when we're talking about putting them in cars - but a 668-cubic-inch, 220-horsepower radial engine built by Continental in 1941 and procured from an M2 tank.
In the image above Nieman is using the tank clutch hub to get the motor set up, but in one of the images below you can see what really belongs back there is: a two-inch, reverse-pitch prop taken from a wind generator. He says there's enough mojo with the propeller action to get the car rolling down the runway like a jet when he gives it gas - and speaking of gas, the engine's been refitted to run on propane.
After a few safety tweaks Nieman's going to take the matte-black Beetle to Bonneville, "put the prop on, let her go and see what happens!" We can't wait to see the video of that. There are two shakedown videos below to get you ready.
Lamando is Chinese for VW Jetta CC [w/video]
Sun, 31 Aug 2014Volkswagen is not messing around when it characterizes its new MQB architecture as modular. It's already underpinning the VW Golf, Audi A3, Seat Leon and Skoda Octavia, and will soon form the basis for many more. And here is the latest.
Unveiled at the Chengdu Motor Show in China this weekend is the new Volkswagen Lamando, a four-door coupe similar in size to a Jetta but with the svelter roofline of the larger Passat-based CC to go after the Mercedes-Benz CLA. It's essentially the production version of the New Midsize Coupe concept that previewed its arrival at the Beijing Motor Show this past April, and will be built locally for local consumption by VW's joint venture with SAIC.
Power comes from either a 1.4- or 2.0-liter turbo four mated to a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, with an equivalent price tag below $30,000. Whether this or any similar vehicle ever arrives in North American showrooms remains to be seen, but we'll be watching to find out. In the meantime you can scope it out in the trippy video below and the photos in the gallery above.
