Looking for a salvage yard in the eastern MA/southern NH area. Hoping to find a decent shape front bumper cover in reflex silver for my '03. Current one has had a 2x2 hole in it (with the flap still attached, so its "covered" but butt ugly) from a receiver hitch incident. Or if you're in my...

I just wanted to let folks in the Atlanta area know that "Pull-A-Part" and "You-Wrench-It" have several Passat salvage cars that still have some decent parts available. I have looked at the three "Pull-A-Part" yards and the one "You-Wrench-It" yard. The Pull-A-Part Yards are much cleaner and...

Hi....I just bought a Certified 2013 VW Passat and it has manual cloth seats. I'd prefer leather. I've seen some quality seat covers @leatherseats.com and katzkin but I'm wondering if it's worth me trying to find the seats at a salvage. I can get the seat covers from leatherseats.com for $750...

Ok, my son recently wrecked his C5 A6 Avant, V6. Not worth fixing it seems--axle, spindle, all 4 control arms, fender, hood, headlight, upper rail the fender bolts to, rad support, air box, bumper cover, and front door are all kaput, and there may be more damage I can't see right now. No...

Me and member BigTexMex hit the yard yesterday! Awesome day - lots of fun! Always hurts seeing those poor babies all beat up in the yard but their working parts will be put to good use. I myself have a Franken-car with parts from over 10+ different Passat's ranging from light bulbs over glove...

Found this 1.8T in the salvage yard and the guy said I can have it for $500. I am trying to figure out whats wrong with it. If I get it to work I would use it as a fun drive around and expirement car. Has some body damage and the inside donest look too pretty.

Sad story. I got caught in flash flooding yesterday with my 2000 Passat Wagon (GLX 5-speed) and I hydrolocked the car. The mechanic has confirmed that the motor is dead. The car is otherwise in very good condition. Does anyone think I should get more than $400 for it, or is that a reasonable...

I've used the Passat forum in the past for small things like replacing the flasher and installing HID lights - love the information and help. Looking for a little more advice this time. My 2002 Passat GLX 4Motion wagon got snagged by a semi making a wide right turn after signalling left. The...

I have decided to put my 2000 V6 GLX to rest. She had a good life 220K and I have replaced her with an updated 2001 with 90K. Almost an identical car just a bit younger. I wonder if anyone on the forum had thoughts about what parts I might want to salvage before sending her on her way. I...

What the title says. I live in central Texas and I can't for the life of me find any salvage yards with VWs.
