Still trying to remedy my "hard to start" issue which has been around since my timing belt change. Most often I have to repeatedly crank (6-7 times) before the car will start. During the cranking I can hear a POP from the exhaust. Once started, I'm seriously down on power. Seems like low boost...

Hey guys, I would really like to make my trunk open remotely (vehicle is a 2001 Passat B5.5 wagon). I found this awesome thread: Passat 3B/3BG Automatic (remote) opening of the boot - TDIClub Forums but it's only about sedan models. Has anyone done this cool mod on a wagon? I guess the basic...

I use the cigarette lighter power a lot and one thing I've noticed is occasionally I have a gadget that pops out of it. I have a Whistler PRO 58 Radar Detector that I just bought and the plug will not sit in properly. It pops out or the power to the detector just stops (partial pop out)...
