#248 of 831 Glowplugs for 2005 PD TDI Jette (BEW engine) by smdtdi Sep 15, 2007 (11:33 am)
I am going to attempt to replace these. Someone here had posted step by step, do it yourself instructions (with pictures)for doing this.   My question regards the parts. I understand that the glowplugs had changed for this engine recently (presumably when the PD was introduced).   I want to make sure that i'm buying the right parts.   I found a place online called   Auto Parts Warehouse   which lists two different types of glowplugs for the 2005 Jetta TDI:   OE Service Glowplugs (M10 x 1 x7) $26.99 each.   Bosch Glowplugs )M10 x 1 x7) $27.99 each.   The Bosch glowplugs listing states that they are suitable for the GL, and GLS TDI, Wagon (I have the wagon...not sure why that would make a difference).   Any suggestions, or experiences replacing your own glowplugs? I have also heard that the glowplug harness should be replaced...is this necessary? Replies to this message: kyfdx (Sep 16, 2007 8:42 am)

#252 of 831 05 Jetta TDI Sedan A/C problem by shannyn Oct 30, 2007 (7:40 pm)
I absolutley love my jetta...Would not trade it for anything in the world..I have 83,000 miles on it, I travel alot back and forth to work and it is a 2005. My problem is since I got the car ( bought it brand new) I have had alot of little things go wrong..Mostly electrical..Sometimes the sunroof don't want to close...Headlights or tailights constantly going out..Now my a/c is messing up. I brought it to the shop (not VW, the charge way to much) and they said it was the Evaporator core that went out. It is going to cost be close to a thousand dollars. Has anyone had this problem? The mechanic that always works on my car specializes in foreign cars and works on VW's, Volvo's, BMW, etc..He said he has never had to replace a Evaporator core in this new of a vehicle, mostly on 90 models. My other thing, the car is great especially on mileage, but when you have to have someone work on it, it costs you a arm and a leg because no one wants to touch a diesel, as soon as I tell them it is a diesel, they say they don't work on them and when you find someone that will they charge a arm and a leg...Anyway, has anyone else had this problem?
#253 of 831 Good price on 2006 Passat by grossem Jan 06, 2008 (5:45 pm)
Hello. I was hoping to get some help with getting a good price on a used 2006 Passat 2.0T Luxury Package. This car has 12K miles on it. It was a corporate car that has been turned it. Looks good. The price they want is 23,500. What is the best that I can do? Replies to this message: gagrice (Jan 06, 2008 5:57 pm)

Replying to: grossem (Jan 06, 2008 5:45 pm) Welcome to the forum.   I think you would be better served in the VW Passat threads. This is the VW diesel engine thread. Most people here do not like gas engine VWs.   Try here   carwhat, "Volkswagen Passat Prices Paid and Buying Experience" #3233, 20 Dec 2007 7:07 pm
#255 of 831 Considering a Diesel Rabbit...I mean Golf... by lizziewriter Jan 31, 2008 (9:28 am)
We had a diesel Rabbit back when... Anyway, I am thinking of "trading in" my 2006 Chevy Uplander minivan for a diesel Golf, maybe a 2003? As soon as I can scrounge up a used Chevy Astro van (mine died and I couldn't get another right away) I would like to ditch the new minivan and get a diesel VW. It's been a long time since I've driven a VW, and hubby is leery of anything not GM. But as long as I have the Astro for hauling kids and stuff I figure I can get something that gets good gas mileage, has some power to it, and all of that. Advice and suggestions welcome. I am in New York State. (If Chevy would just make a diesel Astro on the S10 platform I'd have been all set... but they don't.) Replies to this message: ruking1 (Jan 31, 2008 9:52 am)

Replying to: lizziewriter (Jan 31, 2008 9:28 am) From your post I am led to believe you still have a need and probably want for a mini van type platform. Being as how you have a very to relatively NEW minivan, I would wait for a TDI (diesel) minivan (Honda Odyssey or even a VW minivan) should/when they start to sell one in the US markets. It will be very hard (from a cost justification point of view) to downsize, still have the need for a minivan platform and have to add another vehicle payment.
