  1. Volkswagen Passat B7 Discussion
    While on a long drive the car EPC turned on, car lost power. So initially I thought the problem was the ignition coils and spark plugs, since I was getting misfire codes, and thats exactly what it felt like, I changed those and was still dealing with misfire issues and symptoms. I went ahead and...

    I've been away from the forum for awhile, chasing issues on other vehicles. Now it is time to address the 2004 Passat 1.8L which lost a timing belt on the highway because I didn't replace the water pump when I installed the timing belt the last time. Idiot..... So I'm in the process of removing...

    I recently purchased a 01 B5 from my sister to help her out. The car showed a check engine light, then a few hours later, died.

    Bought a 2000, B5, 2.8LV6 Tip, 115k miles with some mechanical issues. It seems Bank 1 CCT shoes failed, causing the chain to jump and it appears there are some bent intake valves. There is zero compression on cylinders 1, 2, 3. While the head is out, should the shoes on the other CCT be...

    I have a 2000 Passat with the 1.8T engine code ATW, the timing belt stripped some teeth and everybody knows what happens then. I was wondering what other heads would be a direct fit for that engine like what year and model and engine size and engine code. I'm planning on going to a junk yard...

    Hi all, Well, as my AEB hasn't decided to give me trouble in a while, I've undertaken another project. A 2003 2.8 ATQ. The timing belt idler pulley came apart while on the freeway. The belt had around 80k on it, but who knows if the previous belt change included everything as it should have...

    I know this isn't the WTB section, but honestly - does anyone ever look there? The classifieds had nothing too, so here it is. I am helping a neighbor (very underfunded) to fix his Passat following a timing belt break. While we can rebuild his heads no problem, I was wondering if someone might...

    I finally got the heads of off my 2002 ATQ after a loss of timing belt tension incident. I'm about to send the heads to a local machine shop for rebuild.
