I have a 2005 Passat with the 2.8 V6, only has about 80,000 miles on it. At about 75,000 miles, I did a timing belt job on it using a kit from Blauparts. This included valve cover gaskets, timing chain tensioner gaskets, etc. I followed the instructions precisely and only used RTV in the...

Hey all, I've got a 2003 Passat GLX with a 2.8L and my mechanic and I cannot get the 3 bolts off of each side of the manifold collectors...2 are completely removed, 2 are broken off now and 2 still remain on each side!!! Mirrors haven't helped, torches are too big, elves aren't even available...

Greetings fellow Passat wrenchers, this would be my first thread and I'm appreciative for your help and insight. I know this is a longer post, but it is very thinking and planning intensive, and so maybe interesting to you as well. Yesterday was my 1 year anniversary with my 2004 Passat v6 30V...

I have two almost identical cars. One is my own, 2000 135K which has damaged body and manual transmission and newly bought 2001 93K car with auto with blown head gasket engine. I checked the oil and it's highly diluted with coolant. I wonder if I'm better off with swapping engine outright or I...

This is driving me nuts. I replaced the valve cover gaskets a few months ago because the spark plug holes were full of oil. Since doing so, they're no longer full of oil, but the things won't seal no matter what I do. They end up leaking from the front corner on the passenger side and the...

Hi all, I recently changing the TB/water pump/etc. and replaced the cam chain tensioner gaskets, valve cover gaskets, and pads on my '03 Passat. The engine sounded fine and everything is good. I had one check engine light caused by not plugging in the MAF sensor. Did this, cleared it. No...

Hello Everyone! A week or so ago I posted on here that my daughter's 01 Passat GLS 1.8t (AUG) lost all of its coolant, again. I found the source, and it was a rupture in the coolant return line from the turbocharger. So, I have pulled the entire front end off the car to make for slightly...

I had my 2000 Passat GLX in for an inspection and oil change. The guy told me that my valve cover gaskets are leaky -- but that it's not too bad yet. He suggested that I replace the valve cover gaskets, the cam tensioner gaskets and spark plugs -- total cost $596. Any thougts? Should I get a...

2001 B5 V6 GLX. Hey, looking for some help. About just over a year and 13,000 miles ago, I did a full timing belt replacement along with all the pulleys, tensioners, etc., as well as both cam cover gaskets, front and back cam seals, cam chain tensioners, and new pcv hoses and vacuum lines. A...

Hi Passat World. I need to replace the valve cover gasket and cam half moon gasket because of the notorius rear oil leaks. I really dont know what I am going to find and I am trying to prep for the worst, as getting parts always takes days and I cannot be down a car right now. So if you have...

Where do you guys order gaskets and such when your local parts store can't get them? Just looking for a reputable online place I can buy some 1.8 turbo gaskets. Don't even see them on fleabay.

A very popular Vw oil leak on 1.8L, 2.8L, 4.2L engines comes from the cylinder head area and is usually caused by the cam chain tensioner gasket (aka camshaft chain). The camshaft chain tensioner consist of a gasket design that tends to leak on average anywhere between 75,000-100,000 miles. In...

I changed my pads and rotors, it seem like the rear rotors are not working because when i use the e-brake nothing happens, should I bleed the lines again? Second day I changed my valve gasket cover, cam chain tensioner seals and PCV hose and later on I will do my plugs. After letting the...
