    https://youtu.be/rbaN-pq86cs I recently picked up a decent running B5.5 Passat Wagon. I've done a couple maintenance items, with a few more to go. Over the weekend I swapped the three easy vacuum lines, but didn't secure them. That and the TSI coilpack/spark plug swap made a big difference...

    On my passat i have an after market radio but scan tool used to work just fine. Started having problem after working under dash. Louver for air was hanging up.

    Has anyone had to replace one of these? The rear toe on my car is out of whack. I was able to get the rear toe adjusting bolt on the driver side freed up, but it is quite seized on the passenger side. I beat on it with a pneumatic hammer and PB Blaster all weekend and no success. My next...
