    As many of you know, 5-amp fuse #6 and 10-amp fuse #14 both go to the CCM, which controls locks, alarm, windows, sunroof, mirrors, etc. About 3 weeks ago my elder son borrowed our Passat wagon to pick up some baby room furniture he had bought. Fuse #6 blew, leaving him in the store's parking...

  8. Volkswagen Passat B7 Discussion
    So I have had my passat for a few weeks now and I have read many complaints about the center console cup holders not being very big. It seems to me that even though they are small I have a different problem with mine. I think there is something down inside the center console that is preventing...

    The other day at my job I had my crank seal replaced (its nice being on the other end of working at a dealership finally). Everything went smooth with that and the tech stated my oil pan was leaking. So we decided to warranty it. I've always complained on how my car made a little bit of a...

  15. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    I drive an auto b5.5, 1.8t. I like it, but in traffic I noticed the front to back spacing of my brake and gas pedals was a bit too much and it involves some painful ankle bending to go back and forth in traffic. The gas is much closer to the floor than the brake. 1. anyone else got this issue...
  16. Wheel and Tire Forum
    So I decided to remove my wheels today to put the better ones on the front for now, but came accross a very wierd lug bolt which looks to be a wheel lock, has an internal fine tooth pattern, not like a generic wheel lock. Should I just hack them off? :wrench:
