2006 Volkswagen Jetta

The story so far

I picked up this Jetta for $800 to open a new flipping series. It had been sitting with a leaking sunroof, and the cabin was covered in mould as a result. The 2.5L engine and six-speed Aisin automatic show ≈170,000 km, but the real unknown is everything underneath: whether it runs properly, what has failed while it sat, and whether an $800 neglected Jetta can be brought back and sold on at a profit. The whole process is being filmed and goes up on the channel when the episode is done.

What comes next

Build updates, the video episodes, and the parts and tools that go into this car will be posted here as the work happens. Nothing is padded out with guesswork in the meantime.
