At 45 mph there is a noise from front passenger side or driver side. Previous owner thought an axle I think possibly Wheel bearing.
Heater blower motor fuse blows - i have a used blower motor and resistor included just have not installed it yet
The Engine picture on this ad is the original Eco Diesel injection pump pictured - it now has Giles Rebuilt Turbo Diesel Injection pump which looks slightly different. The Jetta runs MUCH better with this Turbo Diesel injection pump - stop light to stop light - its much more enjoyable to drive before the turbo spools.
Friend bought this Texas last spring / summer. Flew down to buy Miata. Miata was junk ended buying this and drove it back to Nebraska. He drove it for a few months while fixing his other car then i bought it last October planning to fix all the little things. I ended up going a little over board - spending over $1000 repairing stuf, eplacing stuff. I didnt want to ruin the car with Nebraska Salt - so it sat all Winter - December - March 1s, t was not driven. We have had unseasonably warm temps here in Nebraska and i have been busy fixing this up and it is finally ready for a new owner. I daily drive a 1998 VW Jetta TDI - I want a Rabbit Pick Up Truck so i am selling this Mk2 to fund a rabbit truck.
This car last week was featured on Jalopnik's Crack Price or Right Price - with 3300 Votes my asking price of $3000 was 52% the Right price.
I have it listed for sale locally and nationally via forums / craigslist. Auction could end at any time.
Only rust spot I found was driver door sill... ( very last picture ) I was going to repair it but i didnt want to " hide " the only bad spot on the car so i left it alone so the new owner can have it repaired. Its very very minor - inside the driver front door jam.

Edit: Today Sunday March 13th 2016 - nice day so i went out and tested the blower motor issues and replaced the blower motor itself and now it seems to be working just fine without popping the fuse...
