    2013 Passat -115k miles,5 cylinder, 2.5 liter All of a sudden, 3 check engine lights came ON upon starting the car. The ESC & ABS lights turn ON then after two seconds, the TPM light comes on and then 19 seconds later the airbag light comes on. I don't think that they are related to each other...

    Good evening everyone, so I have a 2007 B6 with a FSI 2.0T with 154,000 miles. The car has been running perfect up to this point. I bought it used in June of 2017 with no issues what-so-ever until a couple of days ago. I got in & started it like usual, let it warm up for about 10 min, drove...

    Hey guys. I recently purchased a 1998 Passat with the 1.8L turbo engine. Automatic Trans and its having some issues.

    So I went to the local AutoZone to pick up some oil to add to my car and on the way home my CEL came on. I went back to them and they scanned and gave me code P0011 for the cam shaft. When I got home I added the oil and the light turned off shortly there after. Whenever I would scan my car the...

The clutch and timing belt were done at around 90000...

    Sometimes I just hate the hell out of living in NYC. I had my '02 Passat serviced and tuned up in Jan., drove it 14 hours straight, and have had zero problems since. My check engine light came on and the damn machine says something about the catalytic converter and a misfire error. So, now I...

    This is my first car and I've only had it for two and a half months. A storm came recently and it's been really cold. Sadly, my car is parked outside all the time and it goes through all the frigid temperatures. The other day while I was driving, my check engine light illuminated (not flashing)...

    Couple of days ago my check emission light came on and when I ran a diagnostic I recieved the P1423 and P1411 readings.. Now I know those are specific manufacturer codes and I was just wondering if anyone else has received those codes and is this a possible major issue. Thanks.
