• SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD Thanks for looking!
  
  I bought my 2001 Jetta TDI at 162k in Fall 2011. Always changed oil with Pentosin, timing belt done at 180k, auto trans just died on me a couple weeks ago at 191k. Car looks good and drove well, take on the transmission swap project and you have a nice runner to enjoy. I'm pretty sure I am the second owner, car never smoked in, complete owner's manual still in glovebox. Comes with switchblade key and valet key as well. Thanks.

• TDI manuals are harder to find "cheap" more and more autos are dieing. Rebuild autos last maybe 50,000 and cost $1800up. I have bought several TDI autos did the manual swap. Even that is going up in costs.

• how bad is it to swap them to manual???  can u just use most the parts from a 1.8t or 2.0 car?

• There is a guy on the TDI club selling an entire kit to swap it to manual. Mine was an auto that died and is now manual. From what I gather it is pretty simple, just about 2,000 in that bucket of parts.

• If it was closer I would buy it. Or if it was that price delivered, I would buy it. I just can't do it as it sits.
