Hi guys I have a lifter noise on my stock b5.5 awm 2001.5, with 270 000 km ( around 170000 miles). I had to change my turbo because mine was shot and my passat was due for an oil change, so i thought I'll change also the suction pipe while i' m at it , so I did everything, checked everything...

Hello all, This is my first post on this site. I will move my question to the correct forum when I can post there. ;) I just purchased a 2005 1.8t Passat for my daughter, 113K on the clock. The problem with the Passat is that when engine is dead cold (sits overnight), only cylinder #2...

Rolled my rear driver's side window down to hear a horrible sound. Window will not go up. I am trying to get the "assembly carrier" off (I think that's the right term) - it's the silver inner layer of the door that the regulator motor is bolted to, etc. - so I can get in there and take care of...

Hello all, I recently replaced the CCT with success hoping the engine would get quieter. The engine is still noisy due to lifter ticking. Am I supposed to replace the lifters only or the components between the lifters and the valves as well (stems etc.) If so, is there a write-up for that? I...

My 1999 B5 1.8TM launched the clutch, pressure plate and who knows what else while on I-95 in New London/ Groton area while cruising at close to 90 mph (very early Sunday A.M.). I'm surprised the BANG didn't wake up JayTheSnork sleeping about a mile away as the crow flies. Car has already gone...

Hi guys i know there's some threads about the subjet but didn't find some thing like my situation So i have my 2001.5 passat AWM 1.8T. i had a lifter noise for a while (since winter) I tried to find a solution since then and i found one and one thread in this forum inspired me. lets start with...

A while back my '02 30V V6 had the water pump seize (previous owner has a used pump installed?!) and do major damage to both heads. I found a reputable machine shop and got a pair of refurbished heads. I also replaced all the lifters and cam chain tensioners while the opportunity presented...

I have an early model 2001 Passat 2.8L V6 ATQ Engine just reached 200K miles. I want to change over to full synthetic mobil 1 high mileage 10W-40. It is due for an oil change soon (500 miles), but before hand I wanted to clean up the engine a bit. I drained the oil a qt and replaced the oil...

So I have an 03 1.8 127k on the clock, my recent problem is what sounds like to me is a lifter noise. My daily commute to work is about 25 miles and by the time the eagle has landed and I idle for a couple minutes before I shut it off its kinda loud. The only thing Ive done differently was...

My 2001 V6 has 55K miles, and often sits for extended periods as I ride my motorcycle in day-to-day use. Yesterday I started it up after almost a month's interval. The engine clattered for less than a second, then ran fine. I started it again this morning, and it didn't clatter. These motors...

I have a 99 GLS V-6 w/120,000 miles, and an 02 GLX V-6 4-Motion w/65,000 miles. Both of these cars exibit what I would describe as valve lifter tap , fairly loud, for the first second on a cold start, then it sounds fine. Is there something peculiar about this 2.8 V-6 that anyone can tell me...

well im on a roll my second post in like...5 minutes here lately i've noticed a ticking sound from the engine it comes and goes as it wishes. i replace my oil accordingly because i'd rather spend 50+ bucks than a few grand on a new engine lol. it sounds like something isn't getting enough oil...

So I got this 01 Passat 1.8T AUG which I just finished a head replacement job from a broken TB. Switched the oil to Cas. Syntec 5W40. I think have a lifter not lifting. I bought the car not running so I don't know if it was doing this before. It makes a clacking noise from "off idle" but not...

I've recently noticed some ticking noise on my '99 1.8T engine, it's audible inside the cabin as well. It's a series of louder ticks every 2-3 seconds and a quieter period of ticks in between. The ticks are audible at idle and until 1/2 throttle. It's not coming from the almost new CCT for...

I have a 2000 B5 wagon and one of the anchors that holds the gas lifter arm became loose and fell off. I would love to reconnect the arm but cannot seem to find any way to thread this bolt back in, has anyone done this before that can help me with instructions? The rear hatch is very heavy with...

My AEB 1.8T has had "ticking," like lifter noise, ever since I got the car. The symptoms are closest to what is commonly diagnosed as a cam chain tensioner needing replacement. Sometimes loud, but usually medium-to-low. Car bought with 38,000 miles, current mileage 130,000. I have M1...

I just finished my cleaning phase of Auto Rx yesterday and started my rinse phase in my 1.8T. Now, when I do a cold start, I get some noticable lifter noises. It will last until the engine is up to operating temp. It kind of sounds like it is only coming from one or two lifters (maybe?)...

Hi there. I was ready to drop the pan of my '98 1.8T, and do a clean of my oil pump, since I had a lifter noise when the car was hot. I noticed, when I made the oil changes, that little black particles came out with the oil. Reading in here, someone said that those particles clogged the oil...
