mean

I have been going through this 1999 Passat, AEB engine, and got concerned that my temp gauge never reached normal operating temp. 190 degrees if I am correct. So I took a reading with VCDS and found that the top temperature I got was 60 degrees Celsius which is around 140 F. My temp dash temp...

Can I get an some help as I am trying to determine what is meant by B5, B6, B7 Passat? I have a 2015 Passat LE which so far, I like very much, but I have no idea what it is as far as B5, B6, or B7. Can anyone enlighten me as to what that means and how I can determine which B my car is? Thanks...

I am a member of a Passat buy/trade/sell group on FB and there are alot of owners from the UK there. does anyone know what the term "breaking" means? I am wanting to say its our version of parting out, but I am not quite for sure.

Hello all, I noticed some color marks on spring coils. I have seen other coils with different color and number marks. Some have only two, some have 4 marks. What do they mean?

I used the options decoder for my codes listed on my sticker in the owners manual. All are self explanatory except this one: L03 = Suspension range 03 installation control only, no requirement forecast :confused: What does it mean? Any help would be appreciated! B0D = Component parts set...

Greetings! When I have my 2003 VW Passat idling at a red light, even though the Temp gauge shows 190, which is my norm, it'll be rocky and rattling somewhat. If I put the car in Neutral, then, all rockiness is gone and all is right in the world. Well, that is for a few seconds before I have...

The first 2 discs in the magazine play fine, then when it gets to disc 3 I get this message and it no longer plays. The only way to fix it is to take out the magazine and put it back in again. Then the same thing occurs once it reaches disc 3 again. Is it the magazine? The disc? The HU? Also...

Hello gentlemen. Bought a Passat -99 TDi with 300000 km on the clock. It got absolutely NO power. Does 70km/h after like 5 minutes. No faulty codes. VNT-valve moves ok. Measured at least 0,7 bar boost pressure. Checked the timing belt and everything was spot on. Pump has been refurbished by...

I'm putting this here too, because I think this forum gets more play.. Been on the site since May...enjoy it very much. I've noticed a couple of things..first, we can't have SIGs. Got it... Second...what is that tally on the right side of all my messages. Mine initially said I was on a...

My car tripped 4 codes but only got a description of two of them. B2A51 B2215 P2181-cooling system performance P0411-Secondary air injection, incorrect upstream flow I replaced the coolant temp. sensor to see if it would fix the P2181 code. Any idea about the other codes?

looking for the turn signal. i was told to check this

Looks like the rear shocks are a little bouncy on my '03 V6. I'll have to have the down face in front of the boss... :( But deep inside, all VW enthusiasts look like this when they need to "replace" worn out stock suspension components. :driving: (don't tell wife...but I think she knows...

Yes, while that may sound like a dumb question, it's an honest one from someone who has never opened a transmission up and only knows that a torque converter mates to the tiptragic transmission. I'm going to be hitting 200k here soon and farmed out some questions to some VERY knowledgeable...

I mean look at this car! Just look at this! Can you believe it? I mean just LOOK!!! Look At This Car!!

Didn't want to post anything until the insurance went through. Got rear ended late last week while stopped at a red light. I felt a hard shove, yelled a few select explicit words and walked out to find this. :(:(:( The other driver was insured (thank God) and from what the adjuster has told...
