    I have a 2000 1.8l with a manual transmission. It seems to run fine but P1136 keeps coming up. I will clear the code but after about 20 minutes its comes back on. It also has a whining sound when you first start it up cold. It lasts for about 30 seconds or so, then goes away.

    My 2000 V6 Passat has been giving me something to do year after year for the last 5 years or so. Last year it was the alternator, this year it seems to be the A/C pulley, or clutch, or whatever you wanna call it. So, my belt popped off, I noticed it because it killed my charging system throwing...

    Hi All, So I just replaced the regulator clips for my front driver side window. While I was in there, I noticed you can get access to the inside door panel with minimal obstruction. I have some dents in the front passenger door I want to try and pop out from the inside (where the regulator...

    I just put the bumper back on from doing the timing belt. When I pull the hood release inside the car, the hood does not go up by itself. I can get it to release if I pull up on it. I thought the latch might be too high so I loosened the upper two 10mm bolts holding the latch and pushed it...

    Solved - B5-AHA V6, Camshaft plugs keep popping out. Does anybody know why? So, last summer, I replaced all the plugs and gaskets to fix the common oil leak problems. I haven't had a problem since until two weeks ago when the temperature dropped to about 10 F at night. The next morning on...

    Hi all...I have a 2001 V6 Passat and was experiencing vibration upon acceleration. My mechanic replaced the front axles and struts and the vibration went away. As soon as I picked it up I noticed when I accelerate there is a pretty significant popping or banging noise in the front end that...

    Hey all, So from a stop, if I step on the gas full throttle, I hear what I can best describe as a popping noise while still in first, and sometimes in second, could be once, twice, or three times. Don't know where it's coming from. A mechanics said that it's the tranny mount. Anyone else...

    New owner of a 2010 Passat Sedan Komfort. Had around 5k miles when I bought it last month, and now has 9K. I had noticed that the car was making a popping noise coming from, what seems like, the driverside front suspension when either accelerating, braking, or turning right. I could also feel a...

    Hopefully some of you may have experience this. I am getting a "clunking" or "popping " sound from the front end of my B6 when I turn at low speeds; like turning into and backing out of a parking spot. It sounds like it is coming from the right front, but sometimes from the left. The car is...

    Whenever the hatch on my '07 opens, it makes a single, loud popping sound at about the halfway point of opening. It's made the sound since I picked it up as CPO in April. Taking the car in to the dealer this week with a list of warranty concerns to have looked at. Should I add this one too?

I have been driving her car for a couple of days while my Passat is in the shop, and I was idling and heard a popping noise coming from what sounded like the back of the car. I heard it again today while idling, and when I got home and turned...
