Hey guys I need some help, I'm starting on removing the bellhousing bolts from the transmission to the bolt on my 02' VW Passat B5.5 1.8T FWD and The subframe seems to be in the way of getting a wrench in there. The lower three bolts are the main culprits. I've been searching some Audi A4 B6...

Hi all, 2003, 1.8t, 125.000 miles I have a set of Delphi brand lower control arms. Yesterday, I replaced the left front control arm because the ball joint was busted. The car is driving nice. My question is do you think I should replace the rest of the control arms although they look intact...

Hi all, 2001.5 Passat sedan 1.8t AWM, 174,800 miles. I've been working on the timing belt job from hell for the past two weeks. I first thought I had everything done, then I cranked it and the car wouldn't start (it would only crank). After realizing the belt was off 2 teeth I tore it apart...

I noticed there are few drops of coolant on the garage floor. The position is corresponding to the coolant drain plug. Does the drain plug have an o-ring? I tightened the drain plug but no luck. Anyone has experienced the same issue and what would be the fix? Thanks.

Hi, I need a new lower suspension arm, front right lower rearward and front left lower rearward on my 2001 FWD B5.5 does it matter if I get forward or rearward or any of that or are they all the same shape anyway?

At some point, I fear I will need to have the transmission on my 2004 Passat GLX rebuilt. It is a 5spd DVZ. Does someone have a shop in lower Michigan they can recommend? When the time comes, I'd pull the transmission out and bring it in for the repair. I'm in Livingston County, so even...

I've been reading various threads about replacing the front lower control arms and some say to cut the bolt at the frame side of the control arms and some say to lower the sub-frame to get the bolt out. Is the problem bolt on both the frontward and rearward arms? Or, only one of the arms? It...

I want to swap for 1999 center console for 2000 to 2001 center console . I need the lower dash to do it. I'm looking for a black or gray lower dash. I don't know how to rotate my pictures sorry I'm working on iPad. Ultimately what I'm trying to do is to have my radio in the top most portion...

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...

Did anyone replace ball joint boots on lower front arms? So far the only exact match I found in USA is Febest's VWBJB-001. Besides relatively high price, their quality seems to be quite poor. I'm surprised that no one else sells this size.

I am original owner of 1999 Passat GLS Wagon 1.8T, 144k miles. For the past few years the low oil pressure indicator would occasionally go off when driving up steep hills here in SF Bay area, but overall the car continued to run okay - I just attributed that to it being an old car. A couple of...

I see a lot of sites with the picture being all black but indeed when ordered they have chrome on them. Does anybody know where to get an actual all black one?

Hello I'm working on the control arm replacement. I pull out my new fcs lower rear control arm and it seems different than the stock one. The new one is shorter, has a bigger ball joint and the taper is not as long. My car is a 2000 and I thought the change in taper occurred in 2003 and made...

ok so I changed front and rear lower controls arms on Front passenger side. Car was tighter but there was a clunk that I could not find. After a while I have determined that when I removed the Front rear lower control arm the tapered bushing must have gone with it . So now I have to replace...

I started work on the Lower control arms and I ran into my first snag. (Surprise surprise). The bold that goes through the shock absorber and rear lower control arm turned (with great effort) maybe an 3 or 4 turns and stuck fast. I can't seem to turn it anymore in either direction. It is almost...

I am going to order the filter and gaskets for the transmission fluid change. I see HUGE differences in pricing between a factory filter and the aftermarket brands. ECS lists genuine VW/Audi gasket and filter at $161.21 - which is absurd for this type of part! So we have: VW/Audi...
