    2001 Passat GLX V6 95K I’ve had this car since 2004 and for the first time ever the dreaded Oil Pressure light screamed at me today. I’ve researched this question here but this incident is different than others I’ve read about. In my case I was driving some curvy roads on the way to the...

    Hey all, I'm a long time lurker but given that searching yielded nothing that seemed to mirror my issue, I'm no a noob poster. The Story: I have been having an issue with the oil dummy light coming on intermittently and rarely for about 6 months at this point. As a consequence of the first...

    2006 Passat 2.0T Oil Pressure I'm having oil pressure issues just above idle on my Passat. I've read about replacing the oil pump with the 1.8 unit. Has anyone ever tried this?
  7. Volkswagen Passat CC Discussion
    Hello!! I have an annoying tire pressure light in the dashboard that first blinks and after a while lits solid yellow. Started to light when the winter tires were put on, as they do not have sensors in the valves. The summer tires are now on again, but the tire pressure lamp continues to shine...

    OK, I understand that with 60 PSI / 4 bars pressure, the fuel pressure regulator has to be a tight fit inside its can, but this is ridiculous. Any suggestions for non-destructively getting a new FPR (or even just the old one) into the containment can? This is a 1996 AFC 12-valve 2.8 engine, but...

    Wife's 2003 V6 ATQ GLX FWD Tip. Newly rebuilt about 2 years ago. Driving home tonight all of a sudden the dash is screaming at me, STOP ENGINE! Low Oil Pressure. Checked oil, is at proper level, clean as can be. The engine is amazingly quiet. If it didn't have pressure it would be knocking...

    Hi everyone, My car is developing the habit of hesitating to start the first time turning the key. How can I measure fuel pressure on my 2003 1.8t?
  12. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    Looking to possibly get the setup where these two gauges are either above the steering wheel just below the factory cluster, or I've also seen them on the left pillar. Just curious if anyone knows where to get these setups, and if or why one is better than the other as far as visual...

    I just finished dropping the oil pan due to low oil pressure warning coming on after 20 minutes of driving. Had it towed to an unfamiliar repair shop as I was out of town. They flushed the engine, did an oil change, and supposedly dropped the pan and check the oil pump pickup screen for...

    My brake pads & rotors have been in need of repair for a while and I had planned on doing the replacement this week. This morning I drove out of my driveway with the handbrake engaged about halfway. My dog ran out in front of the car and I hit the brakes a little hard. When I started to drive...
