Had this car for about 3.5 months now and I'm still opening the gas filler door with my finger. Please tell me there is a switch somewhere in the car. I read the manual, and checked the litlte chart that came with it, but maybe I missed it. TIA

Ran out of gas the other day. I pulled over as soon as I sensed it, but needed to have gas brought to me. Unfortunately I forgot to tell them to bring 93 since I'm chipped and they gave me a gallon on 87. I then drove over to the nearest gas station and filled up with 93. The car felt weird...

After having some work done to my 2000 1.8T ATW Passat, I noticed that my gas mileage was rather low, particularly for in-town driving. Although I do a mix of city and highway driving, according to the MPG gauge on the computer, it was getting about 16-18 MPG in city driving. From experience...

I was washing my 2001 1.8T Passat last week, and I decided to rinse down the engine. Don't worry, i use zero water pressure. But What I did was spray some simple green all over the engine, then rinse it down. I noticed a very slight amount of what looked like gasoline in the water running...

Just took a long trip and got 29.5 miles per gallon. I've never seen it nearly that high ever. Wish I would have done it earlier. Considering that car uses about $3000 in gas annually, I would have saved $300 per year.
