    Hi! I have a 2004 Passat and the trunk does not want to open with the switch anymore. I can open the door with the key so I assume it's the electrical actuator. If I heat it with a hair dryer it works. Is there some kind of hack what I can use or do I have to buy a new one? Like taking it apart...

    I have a 2003 Passat GLX V6 sedan. It has a climatronic system. Sometimes while I have the temp set to 64 degrees F, the air blows, but is not always cold. I verified that the compressor is coming on, and that the electric fan is working. I did a diagnostic on the climatronic and got the...

    Hi guys, I did some research on this issue and still need some help. I get the p0010 camshaft position actuator a bank 1, circuit malfunction. So, I figured it may be an 'electrical issue' of some sort. I changed the camshaft position sensor and still doesn't work. I read to test the solenoid...

    Hello everyone, I joined hoping to find "real" information on the airbag recall. I have a 2013 Passat SEL, had issues with the drivers door lock actuator, no big deal... more of a P.I.A. Then the stereo/nav system would just power off by itself (including MMI portion). Had to fight with the...

    Hi all, I posted this in the B5 Garage forum but wanted to see if I could maybe get some further input. Would really appreciate it. Short story: Trunk will only open with the key. I have replaced the lock mechanism because the little return spring was broken and the trunk closes much easier...

    Hi everyone, I've got a 2003 GLS 1.8T B5.5 wagon with ~146,000 miles. Just came through a fairly major overhaul (original owner didn't do much in the way of maintenance). Among other things I've replaced the timing belt, valve cover gasket, water pump, radiator, etc etc etc. Had a nightmare...

    I replaced the drivers door lock/actuator with a brand new one from the dealer. Most of the time it works fine but sometimes when I shut the door it doesn't close properly and I need to press the unlock button on the door panel and then press the lock button, then the door closes solidly. This...
