I had a mover loading a truck across the street approach me asking if my Passat was for sale. I said it would be, but I wanted to do some work before selling. It needs the lower fender harness swapped to get the electric fan to work, a headliner replacement, door cards recovered and the rear diff mount replaced (I have the part). It might need a cat, as it has a CEL after I installed an O2 spacer. The sunroof has not been wired as the donor car did not have one and I don't use it. The hood clear coat is fading, maybe peeling. There are the normal door dings and small dents on the driver's side roof rail mounts. There is no rust at all, apart from 2 rock chips in the hood. Tint is peeling on 1 side window.
The engine has no more than 100K and is a stock 150hp AUG. The head, oil pump and alternator have 20K, the K03S has 80K, the body has 182K, the 6sp has 140K. It has a small vibration starting at 50-55 up to 70mph and I suspect the poly diff mount. Konis with coilover sleeves front and back along with H+R Race springs from an A6Q wagon. Front axles have 20K, R8 coils, new lower arms, rebuilt center propshaft, fairly new and laminx-ed Depo projectors and HID. The timing belt, PCV, plugs, Aluminum coolant flange and billet oil dipstick and tube were all replaced within the last 20K. Tires have 4-5K on them,205/55/16 RE980AS.
I was offered $3K as is, but he does not know about the CEL (which I would fix if it does not require swapping the cat) or the harness (which I would replace if he wants) or the vibration (which I would replace the mount). What do you think? I had planned on fixing the listed issue before selling, but I don't know what I would get for the car. It seems like he can work on cars a bit and likes VWs. I don't know if I would make more parting it out and it would be a hassle.
