Hello all,

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.

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?

Where did you find an oem navigation radio like that? I'd love to have one. Thanks.

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.
