    Hello all,

    Very reliable Jetta without the unreliable automatic transmission! Yes its a 5 speed

    With 174,000 miles its not perfect but its in the top 5% mechanically!

    Super cold a/c, nice hot heater...

    I have just replaced the timing belt (100K mile new belt), all rollers, water pump, belts, covers, etc...

    I also, drained the power steering fluid and replaced that, installed a brand new antifreeze over flow bottle, and fluid.

    Cleaned and degreased the entire motor.

    Put in a brand new VW OEM battery.

    New brakes, 4 Brand New Michelin MXV tires.

    4 New speakers in the doors, with new power amp.

    And, XM radio added in last year. Just needs to be re-newed for service.


    THIS CAR IS MORE THAN READY FOR DAILY DRIVING NOW!


    Asking price is $7250, and dont be scared to make a paypal offer online... I have a clear title in my hand... Im motivated to sell.


    *** Car is located in Ridgeley, WV ***



    Specs:

    2000 Jetta TDI GL
    5 Speed
    Factory Navigation Unit, w/discs
    1.9L ALH motor
    Black exterier
    Gray/Black cloth

    At what mileage was timing belt changed? Are you the original owner?

    Also, I saw no mention of performance upgrades, but the car has a boost gauge? Is the car, or has it ever been chipped/tuned? thanks.

    I finished the new timing belt job on the 14th of July 2012, then I drove it for about 1000-1500 or so miles and I drive it every few days to keep it fresh. So the answer is about 173,000 miles, or about 98,500 miles left on this new timing belt.

    I am not the original owner, my buddy had it from 98,000 miles, then I bought it at 130,000 miles until now at 174xxx miles. Im only selling it because I bought a new Jetta TDI seen in one of the pics (Blue).

    The boost gauge was added just for visuals, I also have checked the software load with VAGCOM and it is the OEM factory software. It runs so good I dont know why I would change it?

    Im also willing to remove the OEM NAV to reduce the price $500 dollars.

    Again this is a very very reliable car.

    Nice looking Jetta, could you give a ballpark number on your MPG with it?

    Its about 40 in the city area, but I can see well over 50 on the highway.

    The MPG's went up with the new tires, they also go up while not using the a/c.

    I have seen over 700 miles on one tank of diesel

    I see them on ebay once in a while, just search VW MFD1

    And look in the vortex NAV section.

    I really appreciate the info. What did you have to do to install it? Isn't there an antenna that needs to be installed along with it? If you prefer I messaged you instead of cluttering this thread up I can do that. Thanks again.
