    2002 V6 ATQ, GLX 4-Motion, auto trans (tiptronic) I replaced the MAF sensor and the Engine Speed Sensor/Crankshaft Position Sensor (CPS) because, while driving, the car would suddenly act as if the ignition was switched off and then quickly back on. That is no longer happening, but now, when...
  2. Volkswagen Passat CC Discussion
    Hey Guys, I have 2013 CC with 140,000 KM. With the 2.0T maunal transmission. Lately, the car has been shuddering, basically bucking a bit, while driving. This occurs when: it's cold (ok, it's winter here 0 to -20C, 5-30F) it happens when the car hasn't been going long, first 10-25 minutes...

    I have a 2000 A4 Quattro 2.8 liter manual tranny with 209 K miles that has recently developed the following problem--the car shudders when I apply the brakes. The problem is most pronounced when I’m going 30 to 50 mph but it’s still there at higher and lower speeds. The steering wheel really...

    My 05 passat 1.8t has approximately 178000kms shudders very briefly after 5 minutes down the highway (speeds over 100km). And it only does it once during the drive (lasts for about 1 second). Every year around this time the check engine light comes on for a few days and then goes away till...
  6. Volkswagen Passat B6 Discussion
    Hey all, My 2008 2.0T Variant runs fine, except while running fully warmed up on the highway. Then, at cruising speed, the engine shudders if you try anything more than gentle acceleration. If you push deliberately on the gas at about 1,500 rpm, the engine shudders, fails to accelerate, and...

    My 2001.5 Passat V6 wagon had thrown 491 and 492 codes recently. Indy checked them out, car passed emissions, so they cleared codes. CEL and same two codes came back about a day later. Now, two weeks later, I started the car this morning and the engine shuddered pretty strongly. Checked codes...

    2002 AWM engine code B5.5 1.8t 5 speed 1.8t APR chipped. So anyways today when I got home from some errands I was parked and turned the wheel, and the car shuddered every time I turned the wheel, with the revs dipping quite low. It felt like when you let the clutch out too quickly without...

    So anyways, I just noticed a strange problem with my car lately. 1998 Sedan 1.8t AEB, just had the brakes done 8 months ago, Control Arms were checked and are supposedly fine. Anyways, the problem with the car is that when I (rarely) have to do a panic stop and turn at the same time, the car's...

    While going down the highway occasionally the wheels will start to shudder and vibrate pretty violently. Is this a tie rod or steering rack problem? The axles have recently been replaced because the CV joints were shot. Any information on what this problem might be is greatly appreciated. :)

    When I am driving down the highway occasionally the front end starts to shudder pretty violently and then stops when I slow down. Is this an issue with the tie rod ends or the steering rack? The axles have been replaced because the CV joints were shot. Any info on what this problem might be...

    Can anyone help me figure out what my problem might be. Sometimes when I stop at a red light and I have the AC/Heater on, the engine starts to make some minor lurching (the RPM needle moves slightly when this happens). When I turn the AC/Heater off it usually stops lurching. This doesn't...

    I ran over something (large brick or rock) about a month ago, smashed the oil pan which I got replaced along with engine mounts and some other mounting blocks under the car at the front. Ever since I have had the car back when I accelerate in 1st or 2nd gear I always hear a shudder (like a...

    Hello, I am a new Passat owner. I just recently purchased a 98 V6 Passat, so I am new to the whole VW world. However, I am not new to the car world. I have owned and worked on American Muscle for several years. So here is the problem, when decelerating from a higher rate of speed the...
