  1. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    Hello all, I have run into a problem after almost a whole few months with out any :rolleyes:. My problem is that on the way from the beach I went to turn on my fog lights on my 2001.5 vw passat 1.8t fwd sedan, and my gauges (gas,speedo,temp.,and rmps) "froze" or got "stuck". Even with turning...

    For those of you who saw my previous vinyl job, it was pretty shitty and ricy looking. But i think, this new one is really nicely done. Its not too much or too little, its just right. I know a lot of you like the car just plain, but i don't like the plain silver color. Im nearly done with my...

  4. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    Does anyone know of an affordable good looking boost guage for the b5.5? I hate the one on the pillar or on the steering wheel.. I believe i saw one in the dash (very expensive it seems) one in the vent, and one in the ash tray.. Anything like that still on the market? About to get chipped on...

    Does anyone make a guage pod for the cubby hole in the dash? If so who and do you have a link? One, two, or three guages I don't care. If not I want to make one any pointers. If this has been covered before just give me a link there.

    Anyone know where i can find a R32 guage cluster? i've been lookin all over the place for em! I'd even be happy with a W8 cluster or hell, even the standard 2001+ cluster is nice, i just like the chrome rings and font changes from my dull 99 cluster. i'd like to find a illuminated shift knob...
  12. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    Every once in a while when I start up my car, it goes through the startup sequence, but none of the guages work. No RPM, Spedo, temp or fuel. When this happens, the odometer actually quits working as well!!! I can't figure what is causing this problem. It will typically act up for a day and...

  18. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    Has anyone put a three gauge pod in the cubby hole of the dash below the stereo? I was think of adding boost, oil pressure, and ?? guages to the B5 and I think that would be the perfect locale. Any suggestions?
