Hey all, After working on my 2002 1.8t Passat AWM, I am about to throw in the towel and send it off to the shop. I have been working on it off and on for a couple months. Here is the original thread on the PCV system and VCG fix...

Im in the middle of changing the rear coolant flange on my 99 AEB B5 1.8 and I notice that this plug is just chillin. Anyone recognize where this plugs into or what it is for?

OK, all you sparkies out there....a few questions, statements to make sure I'm "thinkin right".....offer any thing you feel I'm ignorant regarding....(Passat only, please) 1) Plugs (Bosch 4303 Double Platinum) SHOULD last 45K miles, and MAY go 100K...? When the gap widens out over time, what...

I have a 2003 VW Passat 1.8T with 242,000 miles on it and for the last 2 weeks, I have not been able to get it to start. We replaced 2 of the 4 coil packs about 4 months ago, so we don't think all 4 coil packs have gone bad in that time. When the car was running, it was running rough, and the...

Hi Everyone, I know this answer is out there, and I tried searching but didn't want to dig through threads to find the answer (I did do my due diligence). What are the recommended NGK plugs for a 2004 Passat 1.8T Wagon. Thank you in advance.

08 passat 2.0t fsi Should I get the iridium spark plugs or oem?

Hey all I understand the engine is spec'd for the Double Platinum plugs (ie NGK PFR6Q's), the car is totally stock, 90k original miles, and the gas mileage is not very good so IMO it's the plugs...anyways, anybody running Iridium plugs over the Double Platinums? Iridiums seem to be about the...

I have an issue on the Audi 80 1.9tdi. In the morning it's difficult to start up, so I took the glow plugs out and they were all burnt. I put in some new glow plugs but I noticed that there was no current in the wires (when I turn the key on). The fuses are all good, I'm thinking it could be...

I did the basic parts of my 160k yesterday (new cabin filter, engine air filter, spark plugs) and put in a new set of PFR6Q's, same as I've always used. When I cranked the car afterwards, I immediately noticed that the engine is running smoother. (And this is not the placebo effect; I had...

HI everyone, I had the 2003 Passat 4motion GLX V6 at the dealership to replace a rear differential flange and they told me my cam adjuster seals are leaking. I went home, took all the front covers off... everything was bone dry. I replaced the rear plugs in the back (which also felt bone...

So in doing some reading I want to change my plugs. I've done some digging and found a great tutorial (http://www.passatworld.com/forums/volkswagen-passat-b5-discussion/150816-v6-spark-plug-change.html) However! I'm not sure if what plugs to buy after reading the different types of ignition...

Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet Pulled these NGK spark plugs from a 2001 VW Passat 1.8T with 120k miles. Do these plugs look like they need to be replaced? The look relatively fine to me for having around 60k miles on them. Do they appear to indicate anything off about the...

I had a leak in my car and it was getting under my floor. I pulled the plugs out and drained the water. 3 plugs disintegrated but the part # on them was 102 266.01. Can those be replaced with 1k0 899 185?

I installed all new ecs coils and hold down bracket and still get my skip right back. I did noticed it doesnt start skipping untill motor warms up for a few minutes. What vis your thoughts on that i haven't checked for vacuum leaks yet other the just listening real well for one. I guess my next...

My mechanic & Friend just flushed my coolant today and had a new coolant bottle installed cause it had a small crack in the bottle, new g13 coolant and installed new NGK 6458 PFR6Q Laser Platinum Plugs, I cant believe the difference. The plugs were shot. He said one of the plugs was not all the...

Ran this set of 4 plugs way less than 500 miles in my 1.8T. Very slight normal patina, but absolutely no wear. $12 + ship.
