05 VW Jetta TDI diesel/ It has just under 183K miles. The interior is in great shape. It has heated cloth seats, premium stereo (Monsoon), power sunroof, automatic transmission that shifts excellent. There are no mechanical issues with this car that I am aware of. I have always changed the oil with VW synthetic oil. The only thing that I am aware of is it shakes a little due to the rotors being warped. The only reason I haven't changed them is because I put all new pads and rotors on it a little over a year ago. About 3-4 months after installing them, I had to slam on the brakes due to someone pulling out in front of me. There is some rust over the front wheel wells. The drivers side is minimal and the passenger side is a little bigger.

Things I have replaced with the past 14 months other than regular maintenance:
brake pads and rotors
A/C compressor
alternator
serpentine belt
several relays associated with the boost/turbo
headlight bulbs
Glo Plugs

Regular maintenance I have done is oil and filter, air filter, fuel filter

It has some scratches/dent but nothing is major or out of the ordinary for a 2005 vehicle. The seats have no tears. Black interior/grey exterior. The dash is perfect with no cracks. It also has an after market keyless entry/ remote start along with factory keyless entry. I'm not dealing with low ball offers. I'm a little flexible on price but these cars are hard to come by and run forever.

Please email with any questions or if you would like to come and see it. On the highway I get 46-48mpg and around 38-40 in the city. Thanks

$4500obo. Cash only, not interested in any trades. Located in St. Joseph.
