In the process of replacing the parking brake cables almost done removing the old ones and on the rear brackets for the cables I realize .. Wow what a design flaw. The abs sensor wire has a cutout to remove it from the bracket. But ! The brake line does not ... So you have to remove the hard...

So, it's been 60k since my last t-belt and time to put in a new one. I was comparing the different t-belt kits and happened upon BlauParts, who, as of July, claims that the hydraulic tensioner (which we all know has been known to fail) has been replaced by VW with just a bracket for the idler...

No question here, just an observation. I've been reading many of the industry reviews for the 2013 B7 and like the way many if not most of them have come around to appreciate the exterior design of the car. Last year you would have thought VW had put four wheels on a cardboard box. The clean...

I install a NS oil press gauge using 42DD oil press relocation kit. Been running it for about 2 months now. I noticed some bubbles/bumps in the hose just below each crimp fitting, also seeing some spots of oil when i park occasionally. Anyone experienced this problem? Im looking to replace the...

Guys and girls. I have spoken to john over at 42. If we can get 10 or more interested parties we can get a price of $28.50/each. I believe this will include shipping. Apparently they have had issues in the past with group buys in the past, so if we get the 10 interested parties I'll get the...

Hey. I am looking at replacing an axle assembly / half-shaft on my early-2001 manual AUG 1.8t passat. The car has axle assemblies without the tripod inner joint. Is there a way to upgrade to the later, tripod inner joint design? TIA

in lubbock, texas a radio station, a vw dealer and a furniture store will be putting to the test the idea that idea that the redesigned vw passat is so bland that no one will notice it. see The Fan Wants You to “Spot The Passat” - SportsRadio 1340 The Fan :lol:

SOLD SOLD SOLD I have upgraded to an iPhone 4 and now have no use for this. This have been used with my iPhone 3GS for about 1 year. It is slim and light but super strong and I love it, and best of all, no tape required for installation. It has marks and light scuffin from being used but still...

My older Passats have a hinged clip - I had to change a low beam in my '04 (New to me) and it has an odd metal clip that was a pain to get in right. Anyway got it in, wouldn't have been so bad if the clip hadn't fallen into the engine bay and I had to fish it out. Are all B5.5 like this?
