gonna

So I'm new to this forum, I was gonna post about my car and what I have done to it so far, future plans, and end with a question as that would seem to be the best use of one of my two required post in this forum before my tangible presence is proven and I am then allowed to frolic in the other...

hey guys i have a 06 2.0T Passat. car was driving mint and everything nice and all. then outta nowhere it started slagging, when the gears are changing up from 1st to 5th and when it is down shifting, the car shakes forward and jerks every time a gear changes. At times i would be pushing the...

Hey all, this is starting to become a regular thing. Thanks for stopping by. I was driving the car all this past weekend running errands and what have you and it's ran great. I get in my car this morning to and try to start, but no crank or sound from the engine whatsoever. The lights inside...

Just came up on lovely Passat turbo had some issues did clutch got it running due to the person (female) that had it before me ran the clutch until it caught fire and melted some of the hoses and harness and coolant res. So this is where the fun part starts!!

So the other day I went to out to my car, just like any other day, and I go to start the car, clutch pedal -boom- right to the floor! I must be cursed! :mad: :banghead: Last night I hooked up my Motive Pressure Bleeder and applied almost 15psi and absolutely NO brake fluid will flow through the...

So about 3 weeks ago I came across a guy who was selling a 2000 Passat. After some talks and a lot of haggling I got the car for a 1k. IMO the car needs love and the problems it does have seem reasonably easy to take care of. I always wanted a car I could put some work into and this seems like a...

i got a b5 a4 steering wheel and the clock spring was attached to the back of it. i had to take the whole inside of the steering wheel apart to remove it. now theres a huge square shaped gap where the clock spring sat. is this not going to work with my b5 passat? i see the passat has a circular...

Am on vacation this week and want to change the control arms and front shocks (did the rears today, piece of cake), but how am I gonna get the bolt out which holds the upper CAs together? It's a little hard to tell from the picture, but the left side of the bolt is sheared off. I did it about a...

hiya folks, Well, I'm at it again. In trying to avoid the extortionist charges over here in norway, I've been trying to replace a brake line. The 11' nut at the lower end of the line basically melted when i applied pressure - now I have zero chance of getting it open - here's a pic: The nut...

Hey fellow new members and welcome

Been doing alot of reading in the search and I think Im going to take this on this weekend. I have an ambulance sub station accross the street (air bag)and it seems pretty straight forward. Will the T55 work removing the steering wheel? Some say yes and some say you have to have a triple...

done. since all you guys do is bitch and moan

At least that's the plan unless you talk me out of it. :) It's a 2001, late model year GLX sedan 4Motion. 140k miles. Timing belt and water pump replaced 25k miles ago. Excellent condition, headlights are terrible (will be installing HIDs as on the Audi). Drove it earlier this week, noticed...

Got these today: Will be playing with them to get them in over the next few days. I'll keep all updated as iy goes :)

So you could see from the title, when im drinving on the highway around 60+ i get a little wind sound on the driver front door. Now when im doing like 80+ on the HW an hit any dip or any strong wind hits my car the sounds like its gonna open, like a strong wind noise...any body have any ideas

I got a flat and pulled over to fill it back up with a DC pump I keep in the trunk. When it was done there was a big bubble in the tire and I drove it like that for about 5-7 miles at 35 MPH till it blew. When I was putting the spare on I noticed that the top bushings on my newish control arms...

just went out in dark for first time, in my 2.0 TDI, are the dipped beam lights supposed to be so crap ???

I really need a 245 tire to cover my wide-ass, soft ( breakable) wheels, but not if they're going to rub. And I really don't want to roll the fenders. I know that lots of you guys say that 245's rub, but I also know that a lot of you are much lower than I am (Eibach front and OE's rear), so will...
