I said good bye to my old V6 2000 GLX B5 Wagon two weeks ago. I had an exhaust leak and brought it in and found out there were a ton of issues, from suspension to breaks which added up to 3k. It was my first car and my (now departed) Grandparents helped me buy it. It's funny how an object can...

bye!

I got hit in my 1999 v6 right in front of my house. just put in a new clutch three weeks ago and now its probably totaled. Also twenty minutes after the cops left the same accident happened up the street half a block. Was a fun run while it lasted had a good few years. I'm going to take out all...

Bye Bye Sonata. Hello 5 door Forte (Pics added) My partner has been liking the 5 door Forte for a while now so we looked and drove. He was ok with the 2.0 EX as its equipped basically as the Sonata was plus Bluetooth. They had 3 2012 SX's and he really liked the Titanium Gray and the 17s so we...

2 years and 2 month ago I bought her from local dealership.... Only 51xxx miles.... beautiful white wagon... leather... one owner.... never been abused.... driven only between Cupertino and San Jose... she had everything... leather, heated seats... everything... too much to list... but it is...

At 294k miles on the original clutch, 2 timing belt changes by me and numerous other repairs, my 99 2.8LV6 Elegance Green Passat has left the family. My daughter was involved in a front end collision that damaged the grille, lock carrier, cracked the radiator and did some other minor damage...

After 11yrs of proud ownership... I'm moving on to Chevy Camaro ZL1; I shouldn't have took that darn test drive!!!! Saying good bye to my 2001.5 Anthra Blue GLX Passat... will surely be missed. Still in like new condition, No swirls/scratches in paint (never hand washed), under 100k...

Long story short I bring my beloved 03 1.8 in to get the terrible clicking noise checked and fixed ( assumed Cam Chain Tensionor). Get a call from the Dealership....$1900!!!! Something about the oil screen preventing oil getting to the top of the engine. I thought i would just need to get the...

Thanks to all who contribute here. I've received a lot of good information over the years. Today I sold my 99 B5 Wagon that I've had since new. I guess owning a Passat is like owning a boat, your 2 happiest days are the day you buy it and the day you sell it. I suppose I'll have a lot more...

Hey guys. Just wanted to say goodbye to everyone in here. I traded in my 2002 Passat GLS Black for a 2003 Honda Element this morning. Its been a fun 2 years with you guys. This is a great forum and very informative. You guys are very helpful, but it was just time to move on. The Passat and its...

Today I washed and waxed the car, here are some pictures before going to winter mode...Sorry for crappy cell pics... What should I change in look for next season?) Any advices?) :driving:

I said good bye to my B5.5 passat today. She was traded in on a 2005 Pathfinder. Our family is growing and we've always wanted somekind of truck and you guys told me yourselves not to go for the minivan (except that guy with town and country in his handle). Anyways, she served me well for nearly...

well its been a fun (and money draining) ride, bye wagon....[/IMG]

I said goodbye to my B5.5 today. It's now with its new owner. Ordered new from the dealer. 2003 Passat Variant GLS 1.8T 5-Speed Manual, Colorado Red, Black leather. It took about 3 months to get this German wagon. It was well worth it. I was so excited when the dealer called that it...

so, my neighbour comes over the other night and tells me his sister in law and her hubby are in town looking for a new car, and they like mine... they were wondering if i would be interested in selling it... well, after talking it over with my better half, and conceding that with our second...

Hi Guys and Gals, This forum has helped me out tremendously over the past 12months with question and answers for my B6 2.0TDI Sport Wagon. With help i managed to even do a DSG paddle shift upgrade to the passat which is not even available as an option on the Diesels. I learnt so much from...

From this.... To This... Now what to get next...:whistle:

I'd be hanging out more in the B6 club. Traded my 2000 1.8T with 202k miles for a 2006 2.0T yesterday :cry: Ended up getting only $500 for the 1.8T because it was due for a new clutch (still factory clutch which was already slipping) and a timing belt change. The 2006 2.0T has 73k miles...

I was on the highway today and accelerated from 60 up to 70 to pass a civic. All of a sudden I hear a loud snap and ran something over. Obviously I immediately pulled over. Smoke began to pour from the engine, I shut her down. Popped the hood and there was coolant (thought it was oil at the...
