Hey guys, I have two issues with my 2004 passat. 1. Two codes that come up which are: 05241 and 08577. When I erase them they usually don't come back until a random time where i'll accelerate quickly for example when I get on the hiway/freeway. It usually comes on about a month after. I've been...

I normally drive an 02 TDI Jetta, but recently bid on an online auction for a 2004 Passat with AWM 1.8t gas engine. It was advertised as running, driving, stopping condition. Got it for $750.00 which i thought was great. Drove to Phoenix to pick it up and it had a bad miss at idle which...

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...

Greetings- I inherited this car from my wife and I'm finding a bunch of little "safety" things that I find to be a real pain in the ass!I went into VagCom and chose Cent.Locks to see if I could turn them off there. All I got a was a "no communication....." message. The other thing that I'd like...

Besides soaking the offending parts in Kroil for a week, are there any "magic" ways of loosening the triple square headed adjusters (rear camber)?. If not, and I have to cut or grind them out, where can I get a new set (both sides) of the camber eccentrics, bolts and nuts other than the dealer...

This car has 79,000 original miles. The previous owner had the pan off and installed a brand new oil pump, but didn't clean the screen? If he had, then he left junk in the bottom of the pan when he reassembled. The pickup tube screen was loaded with bits of carbon and almost completely blocked...

Recently bought an 04' 4 motion with 79,000 original miles. It took a light hit to the front resulting in the front clip being wiped out. Most of the damage is superficial and easy to repair. Anyway, the car came to me already apart, and i have since reassembled everything except sheet metal...

Late B5.5 Door Mirror Glass (2004) I've got a 2004 build GLS 4Motion. The heated door mirrors have the integrated turn signals. Are the door mirrors the same as on B6 models, ie 2006 and later? The price and fitment descriptions seem to vary quite a bit, on the online shopping I've done so far.
