  • We are still on the hunt for a new car. Let me know which car we should get. Watch until the end to see the Jetta Tdi! Should we roll the dice?

    ok - glad the allroad is not in my neighbourhood as i would get sucked into buying it because it looks in excellent condition with no error lights. that said these cars are a nightmare so $750. next the silver TDI jetta $500... a gamble as u don't know what you are getting. have fun.

    • @spottedeuros1529
      @spottedeuros1529  4 года назад

      I agree I was so tempted. Would have bought it if it went for the auction value. Dealer seems to want $4,000. The auction value says 1,000. Don’t think he will ever sell it like that.

    Tdi you should have tried the hanging electric switch since they had it hanging just used the end of a key or a screw driver. I'm partial to tdi though. Worked for vw for 30+ years as a tech first car was a 81 rabbit diesel so I'm a little warped

    • @spottedeuros1529
      @spottedeuros1529  4 года назад

      Interesting. It didn’t seem to have any place to insert a key on that electrical switch. I thought it was a sensor for the chip in the key or something.
      I’m a huge Tdi fan as well. You can tell by all my other videos on them.

      Yea, I wondered the same thing. I was expected it to be faster. I think it would throw a code if they weren’t performing correctly. Not sure. Also there was a little bit of a rattle on the driver side of the engine. Maybe a timing component worn or something.

    It’s sad how many of these auction cars are trashed and neglected by their owners. I think that if most of these cars had better care they wouldn’t be so bad.

  • @georgegonzalez9281
    @georgegonzalez9281 4 года назад

    I agree with you that any more than $500 for the Jetta TDI would be risky. At $500 you wouldn't lose because the car could be parted out or sold intact as a parts car. There's a lot of body and engine parts that can be sold on eBay if you're willing to tear into the car. Not such a good day for Euro cars at the auction. Better luck next time.

    • @spottedeuros1529
      @spottedeuros1529  4 года назад

      Exactly. You could easily break even on the car. Comes down to how much the selling is willing to sell it for honestly. They can put a reserve on it. May not sell it for that low.

    The Jetta sedan TDI if the car goes for cheap it should still have the TDI buy back warranty I’d buy it most of the car has coverage with the warranty

      That is true. I didn't see a sticker under the hood. Not sure if they are still taking them back. I guess they have to.

  • @justinpratt9248
    @justinpratt9248 4 года назад

    I think I'd go with the Allroad as it was definitely the cleanest of them all. If I had to pick between the two Jetta's, I'd rather go for that Jetta wagon than the TDI to be honest. Looking at the TDI's overall condition and the fact that it cannot start, I think it's too much risk. If the condition of the exterior and the filthy interior wasn't bad enough, who knows how it was serviced over the years.

    • @spottedeuros1529
      @spottedeuros1529  4 года назад +1

      I agree. Usually an indicator of bad service. These Tdi are weird thought because almost all of them are in tough shape. That is the VW buy back ones. Covered in dents and body damage and so dirty inside.
