I have a problem with my Passat 2.8V6 2004. 1,5 year ago engine belt is renewed together with rollers, waterpump, cam tensioners and chains. After a year I had a loose timing belt, no damage on the engine. The tensioner on bank 2 is renewed, is was leaking oil. Now i have the problem that after...

Hi I have a 2005 1.8T GLS Wagon that just stopped running yesterday. My wife and I are moving about 2 hours away and were driving to a storage unit. I had noticed it started having trouble accelerating about half an hour before we arrived, and when I put it in park at the storage unit the...

I normally drive an 02 TDI Jetta, but recently bid on an online auction for a 2004 Passat with AWM 1.8t gas engine. It was advertised as running, driving, stopping condition. Got it for $750.00 which i thought was great. Drove to Phoenix to pick it up and it had a bad miss at idle which...

99 1.8T A/T Only makes this sound for the first few minutes of driving. If I start the car and give it gas in park or neutral it doesn't not make any noise. It only makes the noise under acceleration for the first few minutes. Originally I thought valves or cam chain tensioner, but now I'm...

I just purchased a used 2015 1.8 TSI black Passat with 23K miles. Drives like a new car and I absolutely love it! I've had a 99 Passat, an 03 Passat, and an 06 GTI. To me, there's nothing like a VW. I was a little worried about an automatic 1.8T in such a big car, but it does very well. I have...

From June. A close friend got married. She didn't want to have her 70-something dad fly out here so she decided she wanted to do the wedding in Newport Beach. We wanted to something big this year since I was turning 50 and my other half, 40. We decided to make it a road trip. "Oh you guys are...

Hi, I have a 2000 Passat B5 1.8 Petrol, which currently has the MFA instrument cluster (i.e. the half height screen which displays distance travelled, time travelled, instant MPG, average MPG, average speed) which is backlit blue. Using VAGCOM I have determined it is part number: 3B0 920 922...

I've had problems with my emergency brake levers seizing up and not allowing the brake to fully engage. I finally decided to do something about it so I bought a set of Cardone rebuilt brake calipers from Rock Auto. The first thing I noticed is that the bleeder screws were different sizes from...

2005 Passat Wagon V6 GLX. I've had this happen to me twice now. My car will sit in the garage for 3 or 4 days without being driven. I'll pull it out in the morning and the check engine light will come on(solid, not blinking) and it will idle mildly roughly. This rough idling improves with...
