I downloaded a file from Ross-Tech that explains how to install a USB driver that possible would work on my PC. (I misplaced the small disk that came with the KKL connector and ordered one but will take time) Does any one have a driver that I could have or point to what mistake I am making when...

Looks as though our Passat is headed to the wrecking yard. Before she goes though, I would like to take the stock sound system out of it and install it in my VW Eurovan. Is this something that can be done, by someone who knows little about sound systems (me!), without too much trouble or money?

Hey all, I have 2009 VW Passat 2.0 TSI with 130,000 miles. Couple of weeks ago I went to a dealership to replace a fuel pump control module (nothing bad with it, just to perform the recall). The very same day I noticed that my car started consuming a lot more gas than it used to. My combined...

The last time I tried to replace the lower rad hose, I managed to remove it after working it for some time (what a pain). But, the new one wouldn't go in. I am going to try again next week. I am guessing the oring of the new hose is stiff and needs to compress more so that the clip can latch...

PLEASE HELP!! I'm having an issue with my B5.5 2003 Passat GLX with the 2.8 V6 with 148,000 miles (I'm the original owner). The factory alternator died and left me stranded. After a tow and a lot of struggling, I replaced it with a NEW Valeo 120 amp alternator (identical to the OEM version that...

I have been fighting these auto tranny filters for years. They look like they should pop right in but they don't. I have tried heating it, lubing it, greasing it. I have tried spinning it back and forth. I have tried wiggling left and right. I have tried everything. The issue is the...

I have searched all over and cant find a guide anywhere. The only thing I have found is to disconnect the downpipe from the exhaust and pull the whole thing up out of the engine bay. That thread stopped after the poster said he couldn't get it all out and was now trying to get the 3 bolts off...

Hi All, I’ve installed a second-battery system in my ’04 Passat, and I thought I’d write it up. This write-up isn’t geared really for people that have no experience in wiring or soldering, but more to give you guys an idea of the problems that you’ll run into when trying to do things like this...

Hello all, I have a 98, 1.8t, automatic. The oil pan does not have an oil sensor but is it possible to replace it with a pan that has oil sensor? Has anyone tried it before? Today I checked the oil and it was almost at the minimum level. I did not notice smoke or anything. No leak. (Possibly...
