So in the process of returning my jack to its stock location, I saw this plug hanging out by itself. I have only had this car a month or so, so I am still getting acquainted. As far as I can tell, everything works on the vehicle save for some really crappy, spotty radio reception. I looked...

Hello All! I had just finished changing the oil in my 2007 3.6 Passat when I noticed the grounding wire behind the fuse box in the engine compartment had been cut. The only time someone had access under my hood was when I got my car inspected last month. Can someone please tell me what the...

Well when I was changing the coolant temp sensor I literally touched this piece of hard plastic piping and it broke. There is all types of crud inside. Is this the PCV valve system / breather system. I looked all through my Bentley and couldn't seem to find a real answer. Can someone help me...

My 04 Passat has been oil spotting my driveway over the past weeks. I finally got under the hood today and I may have narrowed it down, but not sure what it is. I found what is left, of a formed 90 degree rubber elbow/hose, that ran aft to another rubber line. My guess is some type of PCV...
