Volkswagen has once again created a special limited edition model to add up to the company's product lineup this year.

According to the Wolfsburg-based automaker, "Throughout its history, Volkswagen has offered special edition models for a variety of reasons. At times they were offered to celebrate a milestone or special event, such as the Bicentennial Beetle that commemorated our country's 200th birthday. At other times they were offered to further accent a specific model's image, such as the currently available Fahrenheit GTI. More often, special edition models have been offered to deliver an even greater value to the customer-something Volkswagen has consistently achieved with the Wolfsburg Editions."

Talking about special Wolfsburg Edition models, Volkswagen of America Inc. has recently announced to the public that the new Wolfsburg Edition Passat is now available in Volkswagen dealer showrooms all over the United States. Volkswagen said the Wolfsburg Edition Passat continues the tradition of offering special edition models with high value.

The Wolfsburg Edition Passat model will roll out in dealerships featuring a 2.0-liter turbo- charged engine under its sleek hood. The engine produces 200 hp, combined with a standard six-speed automatic gearbox equipped with Volkswagen's patented Tiptronic(R) system. The Wolfsburg Edition Passat retains some of the technical auto parts of the Volkswagen Passat hatchback model. But as expected for a special edition model, the Wolfsburg Edition Passat features some exclusive interior and exterior amenities. Outside, the special edition Passat comes with VW fog light, power sunroof, heated windshield washer, and 17-inch alloy wheels with performance tires for the vehicle to ride on. A host of amenities inside the Wolfsburg Edition Passat complements these exclusive exterior parts including heated front seats, 12-way full power adjustable driver seat, 4-spoke leather wrapped multi- function steering wheel, leather wrapped gearshift knob, and leather wrapped boot. In addition, 6-disc in-dash CD/MP3 player, and Sirius satellite radio are also standard components. Every Wolfsburg Edition Passat model comes with a unique and distinctive "Wolfsburg Edition" badge located in the driver and passenger front quarter panels.

The Volkswagen Wolfsburg Edition Passat wont compromise the customers' safety. This special edition model is equipped with advanced safety components and passive driver assistance systems that are also found in other Volkswagen Passat models. These safety features include standard six air bags, optional two rear side air bags, electro-mechanical (electrically assisted) power steering system, four-wheel anti-lock braking system (ABS) with four-wheel disc brakes and Brake Assist (BA), and standard Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP) that uses Anti-Slip Regulation and Electronic Differential Locking.

Volkswagen will only produce 6,000 units of the Wolfsburg Edition Passat model so you better hurry up and grab one. This special edition model carries a manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) of about $26,990, and comes with Volkswagen's new vehicle warranty program, which include 24-hour Roadside Assistance for four years, 5-year/60,000 mile Powertrain Limited Warranty, 4-year/50,000 mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty, and the 12-year unlimited distance Limited Warranty against corrosion or perforation.

Volkswagen Celebrates 30th Anniversary With the Debut of Jetta and a Contest

Volkswagen is world renowned for its design, safety features and innovative technology. And as proof of this, the largest German automaker has unveiled its cleanest diesel ever at the recent North American International Auto Show. The Jetta TDI which will be made available in the US market by spring of 2008 meets the emission standards set in all 50 states including the strictest “TIER 2/BIN 5” or “LEV II/LEV” requirement that limits nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions to 0.50g/mile.

And take note, the diesel Jetta meets the lowest emissions standards without the use of urea injection. Instead it makes use of a nitrogen oxide storage catalyst that reduces NOx emissions by up to 90%. This vehicle is also equipped with an engine management system that alters operating modes to treat the NOx that has been stored in the Volkswagen catalytic converter . A particulate filter is added in the exhaust system to further reduce emissions.

The Jetta TDI is just one of the products of the BLUETEC offensive that is jointly initiated by Audi, Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen. The main objective of this partnership is to establish the BLUETEC concept as a uniform label for clean and highly fuel effcicient diesel powered cars and SUVs with 50 compliant engines. BLUETEC symbolized diesel power plants that comply with the strictest emissions regulations of the US market. The technologies indiviaully developed by each manufacturer are designed to reduce specifically NOx which is an exhaust element that is more common in vehicles that make use of diesel engines.

Volkswagen will unveil its clean diesel concept compact SUV, the Tiguan at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November. It will be made available in the US in the middle of 2008. The German automaker has a 30-year history when it comes to providing the US market with efficient and durable diesel vehicles---which accounts for almost 20% of Volkswagen’s sale in the US.

Blast from the Past

In other Volkswagen news, the automaker’s subsidiary in America has announced recently a national search for two significant vehicles from its diesel-powered past as part of its 30th anniversary celebration. The Volkswagen of America, Inc. has been selling diesel-powered passenger cars in the US for over thirty years now.

The announcement was made at the 2007 Washington Auto Show. Volkswagen of America said that there are two categories---the oldest running Volkswagen diesel vehicle and the Volkswagen diesel with the highest accumulated mileage.

According to Keith Price, public relations manager, Volkswagen of America, Inc., "Volkswagen has a long history of selling diesel-powered vehicles in the United States. These durable vehicles are capable of providing years and years of reliable service. We anticipate an enormous response from our owners.”

The search for the oldest Volkswagen diesel vehicle in the US is open to all registered, running vehicles. The requirements for the category “Volkswagen diesel with highest accumulated mileage”: The mileage must be documented and verifiable with an accurate odometer reading, and supporting historical service records and/or logbook. And the most important Volkswagen vehicles that are to join in the said search must be equipped with the original engines.

Contest begins on March 1. Interested owners may submit their information online at Volkswagen web site (www.vw.com). Applicants may fill up a form with contact and vehicle data plus upload the digital pictures of their diesel Volkswagen. Out from the participating owners a pool of finalists will be chosen. They will be requested to visit their authorized local Volkswagen dealer to have their vehicles and documentation validated.

Interested owners have a total of four months to file their applications. The two lucky owners will be given the chance to use a 2007 Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI for six months. The said contest is the automaker’s way of thanking the buying public for continuously patronizing diesel-powered Volkswagen vehicles for over thirty years. The company has sold over 813, 476 diesel powered Volkswagens in the US alone.

Does the 2005 Volkswagen Jetta TDI come with an engine block heater?

I bought a used 2005 Volkswagen Jetta TDI. It has a turbo diesel engine, but it didn't come with the owners manual.

If there is a heater for the engine in my Jetta, where would I find the plug for it?

I am familiar with diesel and gelling temperatures, winterized diesel, etc. I'm just not at all familiar with the engine.

Google frostheater. There is no heater that came with it unless someone added one. Here is a checklist for that car:

A diesel takes longer to warm up (less waste heat) so an engine block heater helps fast warm ups.
