buyer

First post alert, LOL. Background: So back in the day, I had 1999 Jetta VR6 with a 5 speed and I absolutely loved that car. Life, in the form of marriage and kids forced the sale of said car in 2006 due to it being too small for me in my new family man role. Here I am getting ready to dump...

There have been numerous new classified ads that have popped up since the new owners bought this site. Many of these ads have explicitly stated that the seller expects the buyer to pay the additional fees paypal charges in addition to the asking price for the item being sold. To request that a...

Not what you think. After 4 years and 85k miles on my '06 FourMotion, I decided to try something else. I've had numerous VW's and Audi's, but living in the frozen north and getting older, an autostart was high on my priorities. I ended up getting a '10 Cadillac CTS4 with the performance...

Hey guys, Been doing some research on headlights for my 2001.5 V6. I'd LIKE to buy a 6000K HID conversion kit, but I can't afford the $250 for HEADLIGHTS. :banghead: Considering that, what are some suggestions for the brightest lights (highs, lows, and fogs) I can get that plug-n-play into the...

After setteling for my stock hub-caps for 5 years I was considering switchingnto some larger size rims. I was considerig buying 18" rims by 7.5-8.5 wide. The question is what I would need to buy along with the rims. Do I need spacers n what kind of tires to buy for the new rims. The tires...

Hello all, I'm just swinging in here to ask many of you VW enthusiasts a few things about the Passats. I've got my eye on the B5.5 models, but it's also teetering across from a Hyundai Elantra (2004-2007 models). I'm obviously going to get a biased opinion on these forums, but what is the...

I had a Mom and daughter come look at my car tonight while it was at my mechanics. The daughter turns 17 tomorrow. I let the Mom test drive and I sat in the back. When we were done they said they would let me know. I said to call me with any questions. They left and my phone rings a few minutes...

What a great forum! So much information and I'm sure I've only scratched the surface. I am considering purchasing a 1998 Passat GLS for what seems like a steal. After perusing the site, I am aware of a few of the potential problems, but here's what I'm dealing with: 100k miles; 1 owner; all...

I'm looking at getting a Passat Wagon. I just test drove it today - it's great, the family's on-board, and I just need to pick out the options. I know I want a 3.6L, but I'm not sure if I should get the 4Motion or not. I think I'd rather have the lighter car with better gas mileage, but if it...

So I test drove a 2001.5 V6 this weekend and nearly fell in love with the ride. I'm pretty much set to get one between 2000, 2001, and 2001.5, but lurking around various forums and websites has brought somethings to my attention. I've noticed that coil packs seem to be a problem. Just how...
