Yo, it's ya boi from Da South. Gotta 08 VW B6 VR6 Passat.

I've had the car for about 5 years. Only maintenance I remember doing was.... Brake pads + rotors, changed oil + filter twice a year. Planning on getting my timing belt + water pump replaced in the near future/long past due? I would really like to get this car to 250-300K miles guide me...

Hi all, My car has done 245,000 KMs. Oils were changed on schedule but, to my knowledge, the dealer has never done any transmission oil flushes over the past 9 years. I recall at 1 engine oil flush was done few years ago. Would you recommend it is about time to do an engine oil flush and a...

It's winter and I was wondering if anyone had any tips on taking care of the nitro engine in my Passat.

I am not having fun with my first vw Bought it wrecked but it was sitting for a while Changed gas got it running smooth but wouldn't idle Came back two days later and the passengers floor was wet and we all know what that means ccm Took it apart and the whole computer was submerged in water...

One thing I noticed and learned a long time ago, if you keep your tires clean, black, and shining, it makes your whole car look clean even if it's not. A neat idea I got with a little inspirationfrom the wife. In the home cleaning section of most stores you can find this little palm brush that...

I've got a 2002 1.8T Passat(original owner). Bought in March 2002 and has 106K miles on it. Oil has been changed every 5K religiously and I have all the documentation. Recently got the STOP - Oil Pressure message on the dash. Mechanic told me that it was sludge. OK, so I called VW Customer...

Hey Passat group, I have this headache called an 04 Passat 1.8T AWM. :thumbdown Nearing the 100k mile mark Ive been dealing with a set of problems. My car has been acting sluggish, idles normally at around 800rpms at a stop but really acts funny when i take my foot off the accelerator. It...

Hi everybody, This is my first time dealing with VWC customer care since purchasing my car . My experience has been extremely poor with neglect, inexperience and excuses. Has anybody else experienced a frustrating customer service experience. My next course of action is a letter to the...

So, as a new Passat owner and a new member here at PW (I'll hopefully get some pics of my car and an "introduction" thread up tonight!), I've read a little bit about Passats having a problem with oil sludge. But I've only read a little bit. About enough to know that Passats have a problem, and...

Okay....this is really NOT meant to be a Black Hole thread....I really need some input here, as I just don't get it. Got a couple things pulled out from the bill that I honestly don't understand. I don't grasp health care in general that well, so this is like programming my immobilizer 3 in...

I have finally found the cause of my oil seep originating at the oil filter assy. The engine had the dreaded "oil sludge" issue when I purchased it a few weeks ago, low oil pressure and tons of noise from the top of the engine. I dropped the pan and cleaned the pan and pick up. The engine runs...

Hi all, my first post here. I saw a 2002 Passat GLS for sale and I'm considering buying it. I would love to hear your opinions on it since it is the first car I'll own so I don't have much experience in buying used cars. I love Passats by the way. It is a 1.8 Turbo, stick shift and has 130K...
