I need a new one and just pain advance auto parts 185.10. It's a BWD. Can you guys recommend something cheaper but if the same quality?

A few months ago, I went to a wedding and lost my key. I've searched diligently, but it's gone. I find my self now worrying about losing the other. I'd like to get a spare for as cheap as possible. As I understand it, these cars are chipped, which drives up the cost of getting a spare key...

Just tried the multiple fix instructions here on the forum, looks like someone got to the handles before me and really made a mess. Looks like I'll be replacing them. I've found handles on Ebay and all over the web, but which ones are the safest bet. Or will they all fail again, so should I just...

Last spring we needed to have our 2006 2.0T engine rebuilt due to low oil pressure damage (see other post about that issue -- "Could fuel pump problems lead to oil pressure problems?"). After 62 days and $7000 it was on the road again. Two weeks later the AC compressor failed. And this summer...

I recently moved to Norman, Oklahoma where a new-ish VW dealer just opened. Fowler VW. The only other dealer in the area (Cable) was DREADFUL, so I immediately wanted to support the new guys... Anyway, over the last few months I have been watching and their parts prices online have been getting...

Hi all. I've been looking at a lot of conventional OBDII scanners recently. I recently decided on an Equus 3130 which has live data and freeze frame if I were to buy one. They run $127 +tax from Amazon. However just today I've discovered that there are OBDII scanners which interface with a...

So i was wanting cross-drilled and slotted rotors for my passat to keep the brakes cool and dry. Chicago is more of a stop than a go city with speed-bumps and stop signs on EVERY block. I shopped around and decided to go on the budget approach. I found a set of front and rear no-names on ebay...

What is the cheapest way to get codes from the B5.5s? I have several laptops and don't want to spend money on dedicated software/hardware just to pull codes? Thanks!! :bowdown: AJ

I found a great writeup on the replacement of cats on a V6. I have 4 cats not just 2 as in the writeup. My cats are 185,000 miles old so they must be stuffed by now, and my 80,000 mile old flex pipe repairs are failing. I just put 4 days and $1000 parts into this thing and it finally runs great...

I bought a '99 passat, and I just realized the only key I was given is a valet key. I'm pretty sure I don't have an immobilizer and I would like to avoid paying roughly $200 for a new non-valet key. What can be done? edit: It does come with the banjo remote, so I don't need the switchblade...

I've done a little research and have read about the GIAC and other tunes that will net my 1.8 AWM ('02) an additional 40 +/- HP and 60 +/- TQ. My '02 Passat has a recently installed 80K mile engine with a new timing belt, metal prop water pump, etc, and boost gauge. My two questions...

So I'm having a little trouble with the car, (98 Passat, AEB, manual), it's starting kinda' rough after gassing up...idles a bit fast when it shouldn't...the code thingy is pointing to an evap valve? So I climb under the hood, pull off the cosmetic plastic shield, and take a look at this...

I have my passat lowered and this is the second time Im going to have to replace the control arms. Handling is starting to get a bit loose again and feels a bit "floaty," and its hard to keep going in a straight line. Aftermarket? Whats the cheapest Im going to get on labor for this? I doubt I...
