Hi folks, I'm new here, and am a proud new owner of a used 2004 passat gls. I test drove it and was impressed by how quiet and zippy the car was so I bought it. Unfortunately, on literally my first drive in it as the owner, I gave it some gas to merge out into traffic, and the engine died...

so i recently purchased a 2003 passat 1.8L turbo. I bought it knowing that the catalytic converter needed to be changed. The dealership told me that they know about it and the check engine light is ON because of the CAT code. They also told me that the turbo is not working properly because of...

I have a 2001.5 GLX. No CEL whatsoever, no stored codes, been keeping an eye with Vagcom. Problem is sometimes when taking off from a stop the accelerator response is horrible. What I mean is one time you take off, give it 1/8" pedal and off you go. Other times you hit that 1/8" and the car...
