I bought a 1.8t 5.5 and have found it to be sluggish compared to the other 1.8t I've owned. After hours of passatworld research all signs point to low oil pressure. The symptoms: slow acceleration, mostly when in 1st gear rattling noise after gear shift at high rpm (cam tensioner not receiving...

I just performed a sea-foam treatment on my B5 1.8T and my oil pressure light has cleared. I'm going to perform a second treatment for good measure and I've hopefully dodged a bullet. This is my second post and I want to thank all the knowledgeable people in all the forums.

Probably been covered a million times, and I apologize in advance. Recently replaced the big PCV hose on my early-ATQ and saw the mess that was waiting for me inside. I'm thinking Seafoam would be the best way to get rid of this without going through the torture of pulling that hose out again...

Hi again, I've been reading about Seafoam and I can't find anything conclusive about JUST putting it in the gas tank only. I just filled it with premium (always 92 or 93 octane) and I used Lucas deep fuel clean about 3,000 miles ago, but I don't feel or see any difference. I watched YouTube...

I would like to seafoam my 2005 passat wagon 1.8T, i would like to seafoam the intake but i do not know which hoses to use, can anybody who have done this point me to the right way?

I've searched everywhere on what hose to put the Seafoam into on the V6. The forums I've found all have the pictures out dated so I'm unable to view them. Now I took a couple pictures of the hoses that I think are close to what I'm looking for. The red line is going to the one I think is the...

2005 V6 GLX ATQ I put a full can of seafoam in a full tank of gas. Saw great performance increase after the tank ran out and I refilled. About half way through the first clean tank I noticed sluggish acceleration and CEL codes P0421 and P0431, telling me I have either a bad cat, or two bad O2...

I have been reading up on the seafoam and how this is done. I had never heard of this before a few days ago and wondering is this a good thing to do to your car or is it something to do just to annoy your neighbours with smoke filling the street. What are the benefits of seafoaming the car...

I've used SeaFoam in a couple other cars before, and had no issues. I added Seafoam to my crankcase, and gas tank. The next day, my car is throwing P0300 and P0303, random multiple cylinders misfiring & cylinder 3 misfire. I think its the coil pack, but its just odd that this started happening...

I have a B5.5 V6 and am planning on sea foaming my car tonight. Ive done sea foaming to my previous cars but i put it in the gas tank. I hear that it is better to do it through a vacuum line on the passats? does anyone know the steps i need to perform this? or how much to use? I saw a write...

Hey guys, Im going to be doing some general maintenance on my 2003 V6 passat tomorrow because i found myself with a lot of spare time. heres what i plan on doing: Balance and Rotate Spark plug change Possibly seafoam for the first time since my purchase general cleaning interior and exterior...

I was hoping to get some tips on how to easily use the SeaFoam cleaner in my 2002 4cyl 1.8T Passat to improve some performance and MPG

Hi all, It has been a while since I've posted and in that time a texting kid in another car caused an accident which wrote off my '00 V6 wagon at 420K. I bought a newer ('01 Wagon 1.8T AUG) at 133K. Now it's a month later and 143K - and the dreaded STOP warning came on. Fine - I've had that...

ok so i know there's alot of so called "write ups" on this but they tell me just about nothing. ive already tried disconnecting this "7" shape hose and pouring it into some sorta vacuum pump thing:confused: but as i expected from the beginning i got no results that i can see. can anyone tell me...

I just ran some seafoam thru the vacuum line directly to the intake manifold on my 1.8t and I know smoke is supposed to come out of exhaust but it also came out of the exhaust manifold That connects to the top of the turbo. So right in between this turbo and manifold. Is thy normal?
