I have had this vehicle for approximately 90K miles. It drives extremely well, and makes trips much more enjoyable. Also something to be said to own a vehicle unlike any other on the road. Well maintained, with all maintenance records. Not much required since owning other than preventative maintenance, done at Ourisman VW in Bethesda. Check out VW Vortex Phaeton forum to read comments from Phaeton Owners. Below is the "Production Code list" for this specific vehicle, so you will see all the features compared to other Phaetons. I researched this well, since I was preferential to ventilated seats and rear passenger ventilation controls. I also added a mobile phone module (Bluestar) which replaced the OnStar package. I test drove this vehicle against 7 series BMW's and the ride, features and comfort beat the 7 series hands down. There are many "hidden" features as well, such as using the key from outside to lower all windows and sunroof to cool off the car. I also like the "parking light feature" where you can leave one tail light on for visibility when parking in corners, etc. Steering, sunroof air dam, and radio all adjust to speed of vehicle for optimal benefit to occupants. 1N3 = Speed-related variable steering assist (Servotronic) 1PC = Wheel bolts with anti-theft protection (unlockable) 1Q3 = Mass damper for steering wheel, XXHz 2C4 = Axially and vertically adjustable steering column with memory system 2ZW = Leather trimmed multi-function steering wheel, heated 3PK = Electric seat adjustment for both front seats 4A4 = Seat heater for front and rear seats separately controlled 4D2 = Seat ventilation/massage seats, front and rear 4E8 = Tailgate/trunk lid release from inside (electrically) 4GP = Windshield in heat-insulating glass withsunshield and viewing window for vehicleidentification number 4K0 = Radio remote controlled central locking operated from inside 4KC = Side and rear windows in heat-insulatingglass 4UB = Air bag for NAR 4V0 = Without front passenger seat adjustment from the rear 4X9 = Side air bag front 5RR = Right exterior mirror: convex (US) 5SH = Left exterior mirror: flat (US) 7AL = Anti-theft alarm system, passenger compartment control, backup horn and towing protection 7TE = Decorative inserts, eucalyptus wood 7X0 = Without park distance control 8JD = Headlight with gas discharge lamp for driving on the right (US design) 8N3 = Windshield wiper intermittent control with rain sensor 9AU = Climatronic with impact pressure controlfree of cfc with controls in the rear 9VJ = Sound package A9S = Standard equipment B0D = Component parts set, complying with vehicle type for USA (without California), various parts CV7 = Alloy wheels 8.5J x 18 D0G = 8-cyl. gas. engine V8 4.2 L/246 kW 40V camshaft adj. w/o cylinder cutout, MPI base engine is T81/T79/T88 E0A = No special edition G0R = 6-speed automatic transmission for four-wheel drive vehicle HH8 = Tires 225/45 R18 95W xl (polymer coating) J2A = Battery 330 A (61 Ah) and battery 480 A (85 Ah) N5T = Leather seat covering Q2J = Comfort front seats T81 = 8-cylinder gasoline engine 4.2 L unit 077.B (aluminum)U5C = Instrument insert, mph speedometer USA Left side passenger window fully opens and closes, but needs adjustment for single touch operation.
