    2008 Passat 2.0. Just got done replacing most of the AC. Everything but one line and evaporator. All seems to be working okay with the exception that the recirculation button will not stay depressed and does not light up. You can tell that the AC is allowing fresh air in and keeping it from...

    The ignition key has been getting more difficult to turn when the steering wheel is locked. I must pull on the steering wheel quite a bit and then the key turns nicely. If I shut the car off with the steering wheel unlocked, the key turns fine. This makes me believe that the ignition key...

    Good afternoon - Passat threw up a code to change the Cam Chain Tensioner, so I did. Now I have a Cyl 1 misfire. Swapped plug and coil from Cyl 2 but no change in how it ran or code. Measured power at each injector with the engine running and had signs of voltage on 2,3 & 4 but nothing...

    Had to replace the battery in the car because it lost a cell and only had 10volts. Installed new battery in the car and the remote lock and unlock function no longer works from the switchblade key. Went through the programing steps in the owners manual and can not get the remote to connect with...

    I have changed the water pump on my AEB and upon getting everything back together I noticed the water pump pulley and the power steering pump pulley are not flush. The water pump pulley sits a little behind the power steering pump pulley and causes the belt to not sit right and rub against the...
