should replace it...Contact the Service Manager and the Sales or General Manager,
if the Service Manager is not responsive...
I cannot imagine that anyone at this store has the time to mess with this problem,
nor do I feel that you should have to take one more minute of your time with it
either...Warranty Item...Remember, no one wants an unhappy customer!
I'm considering purchasing my first VW and wanted to know if anyone has any experience with Colonial VW or Patrick VW.
Thanks
Any info/experience appreciated.
I have to take my car in anyway for the annoying creak above my head and will have them test it out. Because it just isn't right.
My previous car was a 4-cyl '88 Toyota wagon. I love not having to turn the A/C off when I'm going uphill!
like...Rates are from Volkswagen Credit and not tied to any *incentives* so they
are in addition getting your deal done.
Those rates 3.9%-5.9% are for *A* Tier Borrowers, ie. 700+ Fair Isaac Score,
but even *B* Tier is good starting at 4.9% for 24 months & 6.90% for 60months.
Go in get a *Fair Price* and know what your score is and you will be fine...
Also, I do have the Mojave Beige with the gray interior and while I dont think its a great combination, I dont think it looks dumb or bad. I just didnt want the black cloth and the tan was way to yellow/bright for me. When you look at the car you really dont see the gray, and when youre inside, you dont notice what the outside color is. Anyways, its all personal choice and nobody can be wrong with the color combinations they choose. I really wanted the blue silver myself but couldnt get one equiped like I wanted.
Just got my first fill up and averaged 28+ mpg on mixed driving with the 1.8t and 5 speed. Love it.
I assume you meant you keep your sunshade up as it helps to keep the back of the car cooler.

No big changes for the '01.5 Passat except fo rthe stadard CD... about time.
"All 2002 model Volkswagen vehicles (except maybe the Eurovan) will have this warranty:
- 12 year unlimited distance Limited Warranty Against Corrosion
- 5 year or 60,000 miles Limited Powertrain Warranty
- 4 year or 50,000 miles 24 hour roadside assistance
- 4 year or 50,000 mile Limited New Vehicle Warranty
Free maintenance has been eliminated."
It's about bloody time.
I'm looking @ a GLX with 33k miles, auto, leather, power sunroof, v6. Dealer is asking $13,300. Does that sound like a decent deal?
maybe even moreso is History...First go to www.carfax.com to find where this
car has been...
that's good advice, the dealer actually provided me a carfax report for the vehicle. The report came back clean, but for good measure I'll have a vw dealer inspect the vehicle.
The used dealer that has the car is called Select Transportation in Waterloo, NY. They claim to be one of the largest used vw & audi dealers in the country. Ever heard of them?
Any one else experience this?
VW plans to rapidly enter the luxury car market in the next few years and the Passsat is leading the way. A $50,000 luxury car and a $150,000 entry will follow.
Near term, will people pay 40,000 for an 8 cylinder VW instead of grabbing a BMW or Audi? time will tell.
generally speaking about $2500 to high; so at $13,300 you are right on the
money with this car...
I presume that the Carfax report is clear; so get out your pen and bring that bad boy home!!!
PS: As a New Car Dealer, 3000 miles from you I can say, without any qualification,
that I have never once heard about these guys, but that is OK!
Get that Tech report and go for it...Enjoy
questions when it comes to used.
I will say though that, all things being equal...I loved that car...and I still
love the engine...But I wouldn't drive any of the others that you mentioned anyway.
How are you doin'? How do you like your new .5?
that has the local franchise...
Do you think the rattle is associated with the Sunroof?
The only *ckick car* that we make is the Cabrio!!!!
I'm weighing the options and trying to figure out if it bothers me enough to chance it.
However my own opinion is this. The manual transmission brings out the best in the 1.8T and makes it feel sporty. That's also the lightest combination of engines and transmissions available and so is probably the best handling version. It will be more responsive and also will provide the best milage. While the automatic makes the 1.8T feel a bit more sluggish (especially off the line) as far as auto's go I think the Tiptronic to be one of the best ones I've driven. I use the Tip function often in hilly areas or for engine braking. If you live in a high traffic area then the convenience of the auto could be important, it was for me. Personally I went with the V6 but either engine is good and you'll need to drive em all and decide for yourselves.
Oh, FWIW, I'm really interested in a 2001.5 Passat GLS 1.8 Tip, but I'm also giving serious consideration to the Volvo 240. Anyone else out there suffer this quandry? If so, what was the deciding factor(s)?
Thanks,
J.
Is anyone familiar with the details of the offer? I plan on contacting the dealer tomorrow, but I'd like to have an idea of what it entails today... trying to do my "homework".

24,36,48, and 60 months for the *A* tier borrower...add a point for credit that is
" a little less than perfect" and so on...
Point of order! Always know what your current *Fair Isaac* score is...If you don't
know, then go to www.equifax.com
It's the "indigo blue pearl" GLX V6 with beige leather interior. It's a beautiful car. I can't believe all the features that it has. The lights look incredible in the car at night!
I received a price of approximately $200 over invoice on a 2001.5 1.8T w/Lux/Leather/Tip (in NC). The dealer also charges a $179 title fee which I would guess is mostly profit.
Apparently 5-spd's are a bit more difficult to find and my price on a 5-spd was about $600 over invoice + the title fee.
These prices were received from the internet sales person at my local dealer without any negotiation.
They will give you sales volume.
year old "bugs" that looked almost new. When you see them parked next to "new beetle" you realize how little they have in common.
mean or what are you implying???
