- Hey Everyone! Have you noticed there are more used TDi Volkswagen Passat's piling up at used car lots all over America? Well piling up may not be the best way to say it because they are selling really fast at most car stores. In this video I'll be telling you why its a good time to purchase a used Passat diesel. Mainly due to the fantastic 4 years or 48K warranty they are offering and its just a all around great used car!

Stop telling people about the passats I want another once one i run mine into the ground lmao
3 years later this is never more true
My friends I own a 15 tdi for almost 5 years now one thing to keep in mind is to make change to change the timing belt at 100k miles it’s an interference engine with a belt just FYI mines has 70k and I’m planning on it in the next 30k miles and the dsg needs service every 40k miles so 40,80,120, do that and oil service and you’ll be good
How much is it to change it?
I got 2 of them....650 miles per full tank diesel...great power...best kept secret..
I freaking love my 2012 Passat TDI SEL
2014 Touareg owner love it
This guy has it backwards. VW didn't fudge on the MPG at all. I routinely got 45-48 mpg on mine most of the time. They fudged on the emissions. With that said, after the "fix" for the emissions, the MPG dropped but that was after the buyback. Still a great car but his statements are unintentionally misleading
Dang!..this guy can sell sand in the desert
I thought this was an informative video not a sales pitch 🙄
They did get 45-50. They didn't lie about that. They had an ECM hack that would run an emissions tune when the car had only two wheels rotating (emissions testing). When not in emissions testing, it ran in the normal tune, which bypassed some of the emissions equipment, resulting in more power, better fuel economy and longer life.
Even with the fix, which my '15 has, I still get 42-46mpg on the highway at 70-80mph. Mine is a manual.
You are correct about that fuel economy, that salesman doesn't know what he's talking about.
I have a 2015 TDi SEL Premium. Can confirm it will do 43-45 on the highway all day. Around town, not as good, it is a heavy car and the stop and go will knock you down to around 30mpg in town.
Im not sure if mine has been remedied since diesel gate, but I consistently get between 45/50 mpg on my 20 mile commute (relatively flat) and have had tanks where its been 53mpg. This car has been a life-saver right now 06/01/22 as the fuel prices are killing those with big diesel trucks
@@liveyourlife23 You can call a VW dealership and give them your VIN. I just bought one - a 2015 and confirmed with the dealer that it has the fix, and a VW backed warranty until 162k miles that ends on Feb 16, 2026! What a bargain!
Thanks, I was wondering how they did it. I had a 2015 MY.
Dieselgate Passat TDI's are great cars. We bought a 2014 for $11K, right after the scandal hit. It would run all day and night, get 50MPG at highway speeds (70-80mph), and would go 700-800 miles on a tank of diesel. Tons of room, a real German car that's been Americanized but isn't totally dumbed down. It's the size of an Audi A6 but you're paying Jetta money for it. We loved the DSG dual-clutch, it was the perfect transmission for it. We got rid of it because VW gave us 2.5x our money for it under the buyback program, which was an offer we couldn't refuse. That was almost two years ago. Well, a couple months ago we got into a 2015 "fixed" Passat TDI with a manual transmission, it runs great too, but we wouldn't get the manual next time. It's a diesel engine so it doesn't rev that high, so you're constantly short-shifting and it's not a lot of fun, the way a manual trans usually is. The DSG is the transmission to get. So yeah if you can find one for $15K or so, with under 100K miles, definitely grab it. They'll all be gone someday, and unfortunately they're never coming back.
I got a 2013 from carvana after my last car was totaled and I ran out of time running around dealerships finding crap. Carfax checked out, serviced at a dealership regularly. I had a free mechanic inspection from an independent euro shop because a car I brought in earlier (BMW 335d, still want one) turned out to be a money pit. They say its damn near new. 70k miles for 12k in June. I fell in love with it on a 2 min test run after drop off and even more so when I started driving it. I can't wait to do some minor upgrades and mods and get it decked out to be something I'll drive til it dies
I was fortunate enough to get a new 2015 Passat TDI SE w/ Nav and Sunroof that was reduced due to the Dieselgate scandal; purchased in 2018. They gave me 0% interest financing and took $5K off. The best thing about this purchase is that it's basically a garaged vehicle and only has 200 miles on it at this point. The oil changes have been yearly, but it's now considered a collectible due to the insane low mileage and no wear and tear. I haven't decided if I will sell it or keep it long-term.
Nice! I too own a 2015 TDI Passat Manual. Mine has the black and tan interior which looks great.
love this comment! just got a tdi 2015 with 80k miles for 13k im so excited the interior is so quality and the ride is extremely smooth
I bought a 14 tdi with the dsg for 11 last year.
Bought a 14 passat tdi sel with 109,000 miles for a Bargain 🤞🏾 Totally recommend one of these for those who wanna save money on fuel and for those who want something sporty but spacious. Much Love From the 718 ppl 🏄🏽♂️🏄🏽♂️Stay safe out there

2005 My Passat gets 65 mpg tdi 398,000 miles runs mint
Bought mine Sept 2020. 2012 Passat 59k miles for $11k. SEL trim. At the time there were 4 in the dealership. Within a week all were gone. Great car, extremely smooth drive, great mileage and very spacious interior. Also, great bang for the buck as it comes with literally a *ton* of features for the price.
How is it and are u in a snowy area
Our Jetta TDI has been a joy to own. Sick fuel mileage, good power, roomy and super reliable. Bang for buck is off the charts. About to trade it in next week for a nice used Passat TDI.
No wonder I turn heads 😂 😂 never knew I was driving in such style! Same fresh paint color, year and all! People think it's newer than it actually is I'm a "if you take care of your car it'll take care of you" type of person so as long as you maintain it like any other car (generally speaking) they're very good!
I seen a Passat cruising down the interstate yesterday and it was dirty as can be and still looked good. Enjoy your Passat Jett Turbo!
Turn heads??
i almost bought a ‘13 Passat TDI just like that recently, but went with a ‘15 Golf TDI instead. regardless, these TDI Volkswagens are incredible cars!
Got my tdi passat in may love it

How to buy back my Passat ?
The Volkswagen Passat saved my life with the help of God of course. My mom was not hurt during the accident then a year later my husband got into an accident and was not harmed but the car was totaled. That car took a lot and was still trying to work. I bought another one. I love Volkswagen.
Just got my 2012 TDI. Things a beauty and a beast
I got a 2013 tdi passat in July with 69,000 I love my car..
Great cars I used to have one, I had an eu one since I’m in London so a bit nicer and better looking but they’re amazing cars
How funny. I got a 2013 Passat tdi with 69k too lol
Does the mileage make you nervous? I'm looking at 2 near me. Jetta 65k mi and golf 75k mi
@@nicholasbaker2904 I had 130k on my Passat before it was written off, as long as it’s well taken care of VW engines are bullet proof. Just don’t look at B6 ara engines they’re notoriously unreliable and it’s what caused the Passat to loose its reliable reputation
@@nicholasbaker2904 on a diesel no, diesels will rack up a lot more miles then a gasoline engine. Also (this is my personal opinion) I wouldn’t buy a used car that isn’t certified preowned. My 13 Passat is certified and it comes with a great peace of mind knowing the vehicle has been well taken care of most all its life.
CAN YOU SELL MY MOTHER IN LAW FOR ME PLZ THANKS
Lol
how much do u won’t four her 😂
i traded in my 2011 Toyota Tacoma 4 doors truck for the 2015 VW TDI 5-dr hatchback last year 2021. never regret it. the truck cost $18K with 78K miles. this TDI has 41K for $17K top-of-the-line sticker price for this new 2015 was $28K -$31K. fully loaded. i get 40 mpg easy on the backroad and 52 mpg on the freeway. the only drawback is adding the DEF when reached 10K miles. i had been a VW driver since owned the VW Dasher 5-dr hatchback diesel, got 50 mpg; the VW Rabbit gas hatchback; 2016 VW Jetta TDI (returned for smog chip recall); 2017 VW GTi gas, was gifted to my granddaughter's college present; finally, this 2015 VW TDI Golf 5 dr hatchback. Yip, I'm a VW guy bc German does make a great durable car. best trade I ever made from a 15 mpg truck to a 45 mpg VW diesel Golf hatchback. anyone has an idea on diesel conversion to CNG, please reply. saw some old videos, but the most recent one for the 2015 VW TDI.
I have this very same car I LOVE it! I got a 2014 at 19500 miles for 14K from Carvana a great buy don't regret it
Dude if you're going to try and come on here and sell these and try not to sound like a salesman at least get your facts straight. Diesel gate was about the emissions that Tdi cars put out not the damn MPG. Seriously bro cringe...
We know millennial. No need for the cringe Reddit reply

In January '20, I picked up a '14 TDI Sel Premium with 28k on it for $13k as a CPO from the VW dealer. New tires, brakes, battery, had the DSG service done, etc., plus as a CPO, it came with a 3 year, unlimited mileage bumper-to-bumper warranty (as well as the extended emissions warranty). Also had the all weather mats (plus the regular mats) as well as the trunk liner with the cargo stabilizers (or whatever you call those L shaped things that Velcro to the liner mat). Awesome car, but thank god for the warranty. I had to bring it in for the heater core replacement (EGR temp fault) a few months ago, and during a recent trip, it set the code again and is back at the dealer for that, as well as codes for left blend door actuator/position sensor and an intermittent short on the GPS antenna cable. Hopefully all the issues will crop up while the warranty is in effect, but all-in-all, you can't beat it for the price.
CPO is two years but still a nice find
Literally had the exact same issues except for the gps. Mine doesn’t have the navigation
The warranty is a bit more that that. For 12-14 TDIs:
Extended Emissions Warranty Information*:
The vehicle has an Extended Emissions Warranty that runs for 10 years and 3 months or 123,000 miles from the original in-service date. Please see your VW dealership for additional information including the vehicle's in-service date.
In addition, and concurrently, the Extended Emissions Warranty runs for 4 years and 3 months or 51,000 miles (whichever occurs first) from the date of modification or first dealer resale post-modification.
And the reason these TDIs have such low mileage, when VW bought these back from customers, they sat for a long time until VW sorted out what they were going to do. So for close to two years they sat (started and maintained by VW during this time!) thus the low mileage.
I can get over 45 mpg highway all day long, even pushing 75-80 mph.
06/2024 NV: Just bought pristine a 2015 TDI Wagon @87k for $13.5k.
Great cars. Clean models are getting hard to find.
yea volkswagen are what I can afford right now because of the economy so yes it's a good car with warranty of course lol insurance is very cheap so is repairs
Just did a GTC1556 stage 3 turbo on mine! Love it!
I got a 2012 diesel gate Passat Fully loaded sel not a dent, scratch, speck of rust with 28,000 kms on it for 9 grand and it’s the best car I’ve ever owned in my life. After owning this car, I will never not own a tdi. And it came with an awesome warranty
Are u in a snow area
@@smifnwess93 I am. Ontario Canada
Picked up a 2012 Vw golf TDI with 72,000 for 11k back in November 2020. The car originally being from MD before the fix and I bought it in Western NY so the simple fact of having a rust free car that’s almost 10years old alone was worth the money but I never thought I would enjoy this as much as I do. Slapped a Kerma tune on it and haven’t looked back
600 miles a tank . I love mine . Got mine 31.000 miles for 11k
You need to do your research. The issue had zero to do with fuel economy and had everything to do with emissions. They were actually getting higher fuel economy than advertised but they emissions were higher than they stated.
I bought mine the end of 2019. Dealership was trying to put me in a Kia no sunroof baby screen ughh. I saw the Passat got it for 13 with 45k miles, Sunroof, Heated seats, Dsg black on black who ever had it got the SE optioned out even got the 18 inch wheels. Didnt expect to like it as much as I do. I drive the hell out this car. Oh and from Chicago to Atlant I got 44 mpg average so it aint to far from the claims LoL
Are there any years to avoid or what to look for? I’m trying to do some research before buying. I found 2025 golf tdi sel but I’m afraid to bite the bullet. I know the engines are good but I keep reading about other faulty components. Any input?
a 2025? I assume you mean 2015?
You are wrong about fuel economy. The fixed cars now get the stated MPG, they got great MPG when they cheated
Amazing video, we got them in Germany, especially the 2015/16 EU Model is a GREAT vehicle. I mean this is the best selling car behind the Golf here in Germany!
@@simpsot_ Yeah, I hope you will have a lot of fun with it, the DSG btw is amazing
Yh I had a eu b7 aswell in 2016, London I loved it definitely the best car u can but for the money 10000% recommend and think the eu ones are better
Bought mine for only 10k and now it's worth up to 18k. Great cars and amazing warrenty.
They lied about it being dirty not mpg
Bingo!
Smog buddy it’s a diesel
I prever Skoda , a other sub brand van VAG VW
why so many, dpf problems add blue problems....
Perhaps because of chronic short trips without letting the car warm up to normal operating temperature? I’ve got a 2014 Jetta Sportwagen TDI, and whenever possible, drive it such a distance that the engine has enough time to get up to normal temp. Diesel’s friend is heat.
I got a 168k miles Passat Wolfburg edition for $5000 and it's perfect
The claim was regarding emissions. DYR
You forgot to mention the FENDER audio system in that Passat SEL , one of the best!!, and one off the main reasons I purchased a 2014 with 113,000 miles on it from a Used car lot for only 4900.00 !!! just has a cracked windsheild and coolant leak that was intermittent. These are great cars! , especially if you delete the catalyst, and flash the ECU , Mileage goes up over 50 MPG
i just got one with a huge warranty and dealer warranty for life costed me around 20k after all taxes but no problems and small interior damage. i would easily buy another for more and i love the sound system. only thing i wish it had for it was a little bigger seat for the front but the back seat was a big shock for the size,
Now, why would you go on an insult my old mercedes diesel wagon, LOL
I bought my 2013 Jetta TDI 6 speed about 2 1/2 years ago and I absolutely LOVE it! I took it on a trip from Puyallup Washington to Cody Wyoming and just about made it on a full tank, if you buy a Passat TDI you could go even further due to the 18.5 gallon tank, I’m only rockin 14.5 gallons in the Jetta
I bought a 2013 passat TDI for 4200 last year. 120k miles. Amazing car and now I'm spoiled

Super misleading with your explanation of what Volkswagen did. They didn't lie about fuel economy. They lied about emissions and it cost them billions. That's why there's a warranty lmao you're not someone I'd wanna buy a car from. Just tell the truth, they might still make a great car, but lying is scummy.
And the 4 year 48,000 mile warranty is from the day the emissions were fixed to comply. Not from the day you buy it. And it only covers the emissions system not the entire car.
My first car and still is mine is a Vw passat SE with leather inside. My fellow teens. Dont sleep on the VW. Especially passat or Cc. Anything above 2013 you will find yourself falling in love with. Easily able to take my fishing rods and fit my shit in the trunk whenever i go on trips.

I usually drive Lexus but I sold mine and tried a 2013 tdi a few days ago. So far it’s beautiful but I’m nervous with maintenance on a german car. Luckily it has a 2 year warranty. I think after that I’ll head back to Toyota lol

Very misleading. They were putting out more pollution. Nothing to do with mpg. Get your facts correct.
That “parchment interior” is a color called Cornsilk. And that seat fabric is called Dinamica.

I was working at VW at that time and had to do that recall 23Q3 very serious recall EPA was down our necks but I love this car I wanted one in shark blue with the manual transmission
The fix affected the mpg's its a combustion thing with how lean it runs at what timing vs nox emissions. They removed them from the american market but they would pass emissions without the cheat.

VW dealers give you a CPO warranty.
I’m buying a 2015 Passat TDI and the dealer said it comes with a Lifetime warranty with no mileage restrictions. I’ll read the paperwork but he said all I pay out of pocket is $100 and it’ll be fixed at any VW dealer. Sounds to good to be true but we’ll see.

Upon returning to the UK in May 2021 I needed a run around and being a VW fan since 1979 my son and I started to look around (he had already bought a Mk4 Golf). I have to say of all the VW's I have owned it is serving well as they all have and this 2008 2.0L Diesel Estate is brilliant. I changed the oil in the DSG and have added 5000miles onto the 113000miles and it's a cracker! Goes well, quiet running and exceptionally smooth... Love it.

Great tour of the car and a convincing promotion.
Curious if the rear seat folds down. If so, what is the length of cargo space from back of driver’s seat to tailgate?
The seats do fold down. I don't know the exact length, but with the rear seats down, I can fit 8ft 2x4s down the middle and they don't quite get to the shifter. You might have 6.5ft length to the back of the seats depending on how the front seats are adjusted. It isn't a completely flat surface though, just be aware.
