  1. Volkswagen Passat B6 Discussion
    Hi, I just realized the inner tail lights on my passat are not turned on ever. It looks that there are LEDs around the reverse driving bulbs but doesn't seem to work at all. Is it stand for fog lights? I don't have front fog lights and fog switch either.

    In response to the Feeler thread I started LINK I received an early sample of the tail lights to install. I had three types to chose from: a. Basic version. Just inner rings (for parking lights) added, factory reverse. b. Deluxe version. Inner rings (for parking lights and turn signal lights)...

    Hi guys, Story starts a few days ago when my passat decided it would make it very hard to turn the key in the drivers door, I could unlock it but not lock it. Sometimes I felt I was about to break the key even trying to return it from unlock to normal posistion. Also, when I managed to unlock...

    I have an OEM inner tie rod(steering rack end) for sale. I bought it for my '03 Passat V6, I guess it fits from 98-05? I am not 100% sure. Reason I am selling: I just needed the outer because the boot tore. This is BRAND NEW, NEVER USED! Paid 204.14 for the outer and inner(came as a whole)...

    I was driving home one day, parked the car, and when i got out, the inner right rear light was out. I flipped the switches on the light and nothing worked. I was wondering how you turn the light on, or if it is a blown light? Also, if it is blown out, the million dollar question is how do you...

    So I inspected my tie rods, and the passenger side had some obvious play in the outer tie rod end, which I'll replace. But on driver's side, there is play in the tire, but the outer tie rod looks perfect with no cracks or looseness. Could the inner tie rod be the culprit? If so, how much more...
  8. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    Planning to replace both tie rod assys on a 2001 Passat and have found some very helpful posts here complete with pics. My question concerns removeing the inner joints, no mention is made about holding the steering rack while breaking loose the inner nut, just wondering if this even an...

    I own a 3C 2007 TDI PASSAT (Variant). After changing the lightbulb in the rear of the car ceiling neither of the lamps work. Where is the fuse located that controls the inner ceiling lights? And what number is the fuse? Can´t find in the passat manual. Greatful for tips /Jopeidi

  12. B5 Information-Base
    This thread is aimed at those of you who always wanted to learn how to change both inner and outer tie rods, but were too afraid to try it on your own. Pokey and I ran this job in about two and one half hours today while taking pictures. It turns out, I had been hearing rattling coming from the...

    Hi all, My passat has 81000km (50k miles) and it has been a pretty good car mechanically. It's a 2.0T Tiptronic Recently I noticed that when I take off close to full right lock, I will hear a clunk as I step on the gas. I can back off and step on the gas and it will go 'clunk' again. I put...
  14. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    So I've recently been getting some noise from the passenger side area that I think is an inner CV joint failing. I've looked around and while there seems to be a lot of info on outer joints failing there's little on the inner joints. The symptoms are as follows: When I make a low speed left...

    2003 4 mo stock 16" wheels and OEM size tires, just over 106k on the car and the 3rd set of tires - Bridgestone 019 Grid. the tires are getting ready for the 15k rotation and I noticed some pretty bad cupping on the inside of the drivers side tire. The passenger has some too, but not as...
  16. B5 Garage
    I always look in the Information Base and perform a search before asking a question, but once again I wasn't able to find much info. As I just recently replaced nearly my entire front end (upper and lower control arms, sway bar links, and outer tie rod ends), I thought it worthwhile to inquire...

    I was on YouTube, and came across this guy's channel. Pretty interesting how different the filters are in terms of construction, quality, etc. If you weren't convinced that Fram filters were garbage, looking inside them will change your mind. The one thing that surprised me was the Mobil 1...
  18. Volkswagen Passat Early B Platforms Discussion
    I have a 90 variant 1.8L gas (euro spec) that i recently got from a friend. I believe the front motor mount has been bad for about 50000km. Would this damage the inner cv's or the differential bearings first? I have this sound that is similar to a tire out of balance but i have new tires and...
