This is to help you remove the shifter on a B5.5. The instructions I found for this either didn't have pictures or said you need to remove the console (I didn't) so I thought one was in order. This was done on a 2003 Passat Wagon 1.8T AWM. The first thing you'll need to do is remove two 8mm...

I finally got my A/C working thanks to this forum and its awesome users. My only qualm is, a lot of the information is scattered, and it took a lot of time to find everything I needed to check out to get there. I've decided to compile an all-inclusive how-to on pin-pointing what's wrong, and...

I haven't found any decent instructions on PW on replacing the autodimming rear view mirror, even though they seem to eventually break without exception. I'm in the process of replacing mine, and this how-to, although for a different model VW, describes the process of replacing the Donnelly...
