Honest up front: this is now a non-running project car. It was driving on the highway and the engine simply shut off no bang, no noise, no warning, just instant and complete power loss from one moment to the next. It now cranks (starter engages) but will not start or turn over. You are buying it as a project, knowing it needs engine/timing diagnosis and work. Priced to reflect that. Why this is a good project platform: 6-speed MANUAL (no DSG to worry about) the setup most builders want Clean Texas title, no accidents or damage reported, no airbag deployment 94,674 miles Black on black, deep glossy paint, straight body, factory alloys, tinted windows Black leather interior in excellent shape, panoramic sunroof, GTI floor mats, clean and rattle-free Michelin Pilot Sport tires, manufactured late 2024, strong tread left (a real expense already covered) 2.0T EA888, front-wheel drive The honest mechanical story:Before it died, the car had a check engine light for camshaft-timing and VVT codes (P000A, P0010, P0011, P0088, P0112). A shop had previously replaced the VVT spool valve and verified timing was within spec, but the same codes returned, and their read was that timing work done about two years prior was not done correctly. The car drove fine despite this until it shut off on the highway. Given that history, a jumped or failed timing chain is a real possibility and should be assumed until diagnosed but the clean, silent shutoff (no mechanical noise) leaves the door open to other causes as well. Sold as an unknown needing teardown/diagnosis. These EA888 timing-chain-tensioner issues are common, well documented, and have a strong parts and enthusiast community behind them. Terms: Sold AS-IS, non-running, project car. No warranties expressed or implied. Cash on pickup. Buyer arranges tow/transport the car does not drive. Clean title in hand. Vehicle history report available on request. Serious project buyers and builders only, please. Welcome to inspect before
