1998 VW Jetta TDI, Diesel engine, Manual 5 speed, 133,000 miles, , I don't know when the timing belt was changed., , Pictures found here: http://s1234.photobucket.com/albums/ff413/BigJohneyK/1998%20Volkswagen%20Jetta%20TDI/?action=view¤t=DSCF1401.jpg, , Modifications: None, just maintaining stock parts., , Engine: 9/10, Clutch: 10/10, Tranny: 10/10, Shifting: 8/10, Body: 8/10, Interior: 9/10, Suspension: 7/10, , The good, , -Fuel injection timing just tuned., -Ignition switch just replaced., -Regularly maintained (since I have owned it), -Minimal rust (doors, not main body), -Runs like a champ, -new oil and filter/ new tranny fluid/ new fuel filter/ new air filter, -Good amount of tire tread, -Average MPG: 45, -Front completely aligned (all 3 parts of the alignment)., -Not a mystery box. I look for problems, can't afford to fix everything, but I would be very surprised if something else is wrong with it other than what I am listing., , The bad, , -Throwing the code "Glow plug monitoring intermittent", Most likely the glow plug harness ($50) and if that isn't it the "180" relay ($35). This won't be an issue until the winter comes back around but even so i made it through 75% of the winter without even knowing about it, and I obviously didn't fix it so it clearly isn't the biggest issue in the world., , -Throwing the code "Intake manifold pressure intermittent". DON'T GET SCARED! There is a hose inside the ecu that usually goes bad, this could be the issue., , -The front left (?maybe right?) axle boot is pretty rough. The grease needs to be cleaned out with new grease put in, and then the boot needs to be replaced ($15)., , -I just had it aligned, I got to see the readings too, so the front is completely done but the rear needs to be shimmed. It has drum brakes in the rear so the dealership can do it for $150., , -Cracked windshield. ($150 installed with glass)., , -Air bag wiring gone ($30). The airbag is there but it is not connected. It got all f-d up when I replaced the ignition switch so I just ripped it all out. Easily replaceable.
