    Though my user name makes me look like a relative newb... I've been around for some time. In all that time, people are always looking for options available to them for specific mods. Myself included. I used to have a set of pictures for comparing the various body kits available for the Passat...

    98 GLX ATE calipers I think I've seen this before. Is the hex wrench 7mm for R&R of these bolts? None of my metric seem to fit exactly, don't want to strip or damage those guys trying to get'em out with wrong tool. Also the manual sez to use new ones but the ECS guy sez just lock-tite the bolts...

    Hi guys, I'm currently putting together a step by step guide on how to make a stealth fibreglass enclosure for the Passat. I've got to add a few more pictures but it is easy enough to understand what is going on. It is located at: http://www.talkaudio.co.uk/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=3040...

    I've just ordered a Brullen turbo-back exhaust from the Group Buy that is currently going on. I have seen that some of you have cut out a bit of the rear-end so that the muffler and tips don't have to hang too low. Do any of you have a cut-out template or detailed pictures and instructions for...

    well, i bought the Tyrolsport brake bushings, at Rusty's recommendation. the product seems to work well. it squeaks much less now. only problem is that i tried to torque the guide pin to 30 ft-lb per tyrolsport's instructions, and the damn thing stripped :mad: anyway, how do i get it out...

    I think I'm about to pass up an A'PEXi S-AFCII for a Greddy e-Manage, since they start around the same price. Programming shouldn't be too bad, since it still is a piggyback computer, versus a full standalone. The extra ignition harness and injector harness is pretty cheap ($30 each I think)...

    Having problems installing a sub in a 99' Passat non-monsoon? :mad: This guide will explain in decent detail how to do this. I will show you how to remove the console piece in the middle of the vehicle, and how to wire a sub back to the trunk; but not show how to replace the stock hu. Let the...

    is this something that we could put together to answer questions like: what is a b5 and b5.5? What is a variant? what are the trims? what is the bolt pattern? What manufacturers have body kits? Introducing them to the info section? There are lots of posts that are repeated, sometimes 5-6 times...

    Everyone says how easy it is to install a new diverter valve, but is there a guide with pictures and such to help a first-timer? I would search but search is being very quirky right now... Thanks!

    This is as non-technical, noobie friendly as I could make it, because I am a nontechnical noob myself. Please point out any mistakes you find. Materials: Hardwire cord (check the detector's website), or a phone cord if you are cheap some electrical tape Pliers/wrench to loosen one screw...

    Got an Omori boost guage off a fellow ClubB5'er but, the installation guide was mia. No problem because I'm hoping someone in the community has theirs still and might be willing to scan/email me a copy. Anyone? Class? Bueller? Bueller? :)
  14. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    This afternoon I checked over my car after a recent service at my local dealership that involved transmission removal. To my surprise everything underneath looks pretty good, though they didn't waste any time cleaning anything when they put it back together. Anyway, when out of habit I checked...
