2002 Volkswagen Passat Glx 4 Motion Wagon 4-door 2.8l on 2040-cars
Abingdon, Maryland, United States
|
This listing is for a 2002 Volkswagen Passat 4motion 2.87 V6 I completely rebuilt the engine and replaced any needed components on the vehicle. There are too many items to list. A brief description follows. The engines upper end is completely new. Heads have been sent to the machine shop and all new valve seals have been installed. The head gaskets, intake manifold gaskets, timing belt, water pump, all seals and thermostat housing with new thermostat have been installed. I also replaced the heater and evaporator core as well as recharged and checked the a/c system. All of the fluids have been changed and new filters have been added. I am a European automotive Tech so I know these cars inside and out. This vehicle only needs a couple minor things to be considered flawless. There is only a couple of door dings from years of parking in busy lots and that's it. The 2.8 v6 4 motion is a wonderful vehicle to drive. It doesn't lack in power at all, and is a dream to drive. This is a go anywhere any time car and would be a great commuter or safe reliable car for a small family. I have many years experience with these cars and this is by far one of the best I have ever driven. Feel free to contact me with any questions or for more pictures. |

Porsche 911 with VW turbodiesel prepares for LeMons assault
Fri, 21 Mar 2014LeMons racing is a wonderful example that setting limits can actually breed creativity. The series mandates that all entries must cost $500, not counting safety equipment, and that cap forces teams to be ingenious in how they build a racecar. Take for example this diesel-powered Porsche 911, which its creators have dubbed Ferkel the Nein-11, that will be racing in the Sears Pointless race this weekend in Sonoma, California.
This Frankenstein combines a 911 chassis that was originally bought just for its European powertrain and a Volkswagen TDI diesel engine mounted in the rear. After deciding the shell could still be of some use, the team decided to go racing. "We began brainstorming what replacement drivetrain to use for maximum offense and there was really only one answer: a diesel," said Philipp von Weitershausen, one of the team captains, to Jalopnik. They bought a 1998 Jetta TDI on the cheap and started figuring out a way to hack the engine into the bay. To pay respect to the donor, the VW's trunk was highly modified (and drilled) and grafted onto the back of Ferkel.
This team isn't a newcomer to LeMons. Its last car was a classic VW Beetle with a Subaru engine and dual controls, named Ferdinand the Bug, which could be driven from the left or right side. It's quite a sight.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
