'02 VW Jetta GLS 1.8T

Bought this car off of Dan (TurboNova) about two years ago. It was intended for my mother-in-law who used it for awhile and has now turned into just an extra car. It's nice to have around as a spare but we're without a house currently and too many cars makes for storage issues. This car has been maintained by me the entire two years we've owned it not my useless mother-in-law :D

Good: Car is mechanically sound. Just drove it to Pittsburgh for a week and then Cleveland for a week for training. Should provide many more years of service if maintained. My A4 with 1.8T has 220k miles and climbing. On my trips last week the car got 29 - 31mpg depending on speed of travel.

 

Bad: Exterior blemishes on bumpers. At light throttle when warm the car shifts harder than normal on the 2-3 shift. It's done this since we got it which is why I did all the valve body solenoids and tranny service. At anything above 1/2 throttle it shifts perfectly normal. Air pump has broken rivets on it so on cold start it sounds like a Jet for about the first minute until the air pump turns off.

 

$3000

 

**Pass front fender is getting painted this week, will be fresh paint for new owner**
