dropped

Trying to lift a B5 4-Motion wagon as seen here. The exhaust basically dropped in the middle and scraped on the road for a while until I removed the rear section. I now have it look like in the attached picture, and was wondering how to temporarily lift the remaining exhaust section so I can...

I was replacing my valve cover and cam chain tensioner gaskets on my '02 Passat 1.8L GLS and I'm almost 100% sure I dropped a 1" hex bit into what I'm assuming is an oil passageway right under the exhaust camshaft-side of the drive chain. I removed the cam chain tensioner and the intake...

Our project car! This is my son's 2003 1.8T. We bought it little over 1 year ago just before he turned 16. With the thought of fixing it up a little. was in decent shape but very stock. We have done a few things exhaust, K&N, wheels, suspension, minor other mods. Found a sick cheap price on a...

Today I checked oil level and it was even below minimum. I am looking down I don't notice any leaks, I didn't drive much this winter too. Since I changed oil I drove 3000 miles, i added only half quantity in this period. today I added whole 1 quantity oil to fill up to the maximum line. Is...

2002 Passat GLX 4mo Wagon I was changing out a reverse bulb on the driver's side, when I dropped the new bulb into the area between the bulb socket plate, and the section that has the jack, cd-changer, etc. How do I get down there? Do I get at it from within the trunk, take out cargo floor...

Hi guys, I've been reading the forum a while now, always found my answers, except now - 2001 vw passat b5.5 1.8t awm engine. Start the car - no problem - runs like new. When engine heats up - rattling and knocking noise appears. Tried everything - changed the cam chain tensioner - got even...

:D:D No Issues! Oil Pick up screen was CLEAN as a whistle, no sludge in the pan, or surrounding areas. I had a small CCT issue, (or thought I did) which turned out to be something else. I had the chance to look at my turbo (Never got that far) and there is extremely minimal shaft play. My...

Hi all, I recently purchased a '98 B5 Passat 1.8t. It's in really great shape, only has 135k miles, and was a one owner car before I got it. It was very well maintained, the oil was changed religiously every 5k with synthetic oil and every recommended service/maintenance was performed...

Sad.

Couple pictures of my 03 dropped on rsk coils. Pretty low, might raise the front a bit. Love the coils though, they ride great.

When i bought my passat it came with a brand new in the box set of FK automotive Fahrwerk fully adjustable coil overs, I was wondering if anyone here has ever dealt with this company on there passat or is currently using them so I don't have to go through the guessing game of how many threads to...

I accidentally drop a thin wire about 7cm long and 2/3 the size of the BBQ pan wire. I dropped it to the left part of the engine bay where there is some space between the engine and the right front fender. I am pretty sure it went straight down to the plastic engine splash guard and I tried to...

Thought I would share the wagon. Just put the summer wheels on and lowered it.

I have been doing my research on this topic for quite some time now. During my studies I have come across countless others wondering the same thing, "Will I Rub???". So I figured we could help each other out with this extremely common question. Between us all we got to have just about every...

So I received my H&R sports and front Bilstein sports (rears still on the way). I was so excited that I couldnt wait any longer for the rears and decided Ill pop the rears in when they get here (they are extremely easy to replace). So here's what we did; replaced front struts and springs all...

I own an 04 Passat and recently dropped some money behind the ashtray. I know you cant just remove the ashtray so I was wondering if someone knows how to remove the center console or some other way for me to access it. Thanks!
