• let me know what yout think - repairs down below:
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  items replaced:  new shift linkages, complete suspension (inc bushings, stress bars upper and lower), steering components, all wheel bearings, tranny seals, 210mm clutch, timing and water pump belts, brake pads, glow plugs
  
  repaired door handles, dash lights and other problems, climate controls inc heater core and installed a secondary core (preheat), cleaned out entire fuel system and injectors, removed a/c system - relocated alternator, added in a voltmeter/boost guage/oil pressure guages and installed a stereo system, just to name a few.
  
  it has 221k on the odometer, gets about 40mpg average, runs great and starts even in the cold of northern Wisconsin winters.
  
  let me know what it is worth considering the condition. Curious as to the opinions.

• This is my recently done project. It also has a factory TD tach. It took me about a month. It was a Canadian car, but is now mine.

• To get back to this thread I started last year, I think that I decided which model I'll get: a Jetta 1 TD.
  
  She's not mine yet, she's a 4 doors, but....brown.... :?
  
  Not crazy about the color, very "old school" I guess... :roll:
  
  Worst part is that the owner (second owner, had the car for 15 years), repainted it, brown... :roll:  :roll:  :roll:  :roll:
  
  Should get her later this summer, will post pics for sure.
  
  Not a lot of those early Jetta around, ain't it?

• We got a little problem on price finally...I thought it was 1500, but he asks 4500$...which I don't think its worth...so back with the passat as only vehicule.
  
  Is it possible that the pedals on A1's are crooked?
  
  Diesel pedal was ok, but the brake and clutch were further down towards the floor.
  
  I had trouble with the old rod tranny vs my cables in the passat. :oops:
  
  I think I'll go with an A2 finally, I just can't drive standard without a tach, drives me crazy! :|

• its easy enough to fit a tach to a mkI.
  
  you might be able to find a jetta TD with one in it already if you're lucky.
  
  edit: there is an 84 TD jetta in the classifieds right now. it could have a tach..
• #85 by RAMMSTEIN on 23 Jun, 2005 18:24
• Blacktietd, the only mk1 diesel with a tach was the euro GTD.
  
  Otherwise no tach on mk1 diesel.... :cry:

   :cry:  :lol:
  
  i'm probably going to end up going to mkII tach including gauges to make life easier on myself. i have never seen a mkI diesel tach in person... but i have the gauges/wiring/everything from a mkII so might as well  :?
