just wondering

It was mentioned in another thread that these tires fit but the guy who posted it isn't responding so I thought I'd ask if anyone else has changed over their B6 Passat from 45's to the slightly taller 50 aspect ration tires. I'm considering putting 235 50 17's on my B6 wagon to soften the...

Has anybody here used Hans Auto Parts (eBay store). I'm needing a new MAF for my DD and this 078133471C $66 VW Audi Mass Airflow Sensor Passat A4 S6/A6 2.8 V6 looks pretty attractive price wise. It's at least a $100 cheaper than the next cheapest one I can find. I normally wouldn't do something...

Can anybody recommend a VW shop in the Twin Cities, Minneapolis / Saint Paul metro area? The closer to Saint Paul, the better.

no, not mine, but it's in Indiana... 2004 Passat Wagon w8 - Sport - 6 Speed Manual - The W8 forum

Curious to know if anybody lives near Walpole, MA. There is a black on black W8 6sp manual for sale I'd be interested in for a project car. Any takers on checking it out for me?

I'm open to any and all suggestions here. I had a bad automatic transmission in my 05 model Passat, 1.8t. I changed the transmission and when pulling it out, bent the spacer between the motor and transmission. I straightened it out as best I could and put it back in when I installed the new...

just as the title states, anyone running the CX Racing coilover setup im seeing for sale on ebay? thinking about making the purchase but was wondering if anyone has had issues with them? OOORRRRR does anyone have any other recommendations? thanks

It's been awhile since I've had a decent drive. Too many non-drivers on the road doing just about everything BUT driving. Also where I live we have a huge A-hole factor, lot of bullies on the road with not much to do but cause havoc. Having a nice German sedan is not much fun when you cannot use...

I have a 2000 v6 wagon, manual and the previous owner put the cheapest, thin-walled cats on it possible. After welding in new flex joints a couple of years ago and recently doing some creative patchwork it's time to replace them. The final straw was the driver's side pipe cracking at the end of...

Well the title says it all, I want to get one of those and would appreciate a link to a working cable, thanks.

Cannot find it... it was hard to search and navigate, just part name , # , and prices. Like clearance. I'd appreciate the link, or confirmation it's gone. TIA Tom

Got 225 45 17s on my passat now just thinking about going a little bigger. Any issues? thanks!

Looking at expanding my "family" and was looking at first gen touaregs. The ones in my price range are 2004-2007 3.2L V6's and and the V8's. I would really like the 3.0L diesel or even the V10 but they are way out of my range. I would like to know about reliability, cost of maintenance and...

Pulled my tailight harness out on my wagon and discovered two empty sockets. Has anybody utilized these for rear fogs or auxiliary lights? I know drilling is necessary because there are no holes for the bulbs. Here's a pic of the bulb holder.

Hello! Does anybody else drive with methane here? I've got a 2009 model of Passat B6 ecofuel, 1.4 tsi. So far no problems with it, it's been a very nice car, I've had it for about a year. Close to where I live there's a big farm, where they produce biogas from animal wastes. Passat drives about...

Was on a Audi b5 forum and they were talking about FTG modified billet KO4 s for 1.8ts. A guy claims they out perform frankenturbos and are nearly half the price. I did a search and found little information on the company and specs. Anybody work with these guys. Thanks for you input
