  1. Volkswagen Passat CC Discussion
    I have a 2011 cc and this morning the car would not start so i had to jumpstart it. I found a video on YT and my car is basically doing the same thing as the car in the video (not my video) https://youtu.be/q6XoC-nBXxU I have no battery or check engine light on. I had the battery tested today...

    I bought this car (second 2003 GLX 2.8 [typo in title and can’t change] wagon) last year with 90k miles. It’s run well, but has been using oil. I just changed my oil last week and have heard a loud clunky sound twice when trying to start. It’s a horrible sound, but then the car starts easily the...

    I have a 2002 V6 4Motion, I had it parked outside for about a week, tried to go start it today, firstly the key buttons didn't unlock the car, had to do so manually, and then when I put the keys in the ignition, got not response whatsoever, no Dash lights, nothing whatsoever. Help anyone?

    So my 2005 V6 Passat has had a hard time starting it left sitting in the cold for a few days in the past. I’ll start it and it’ll be fine hen but a rough start. Sometimes it’ll be tougher and it’ll run rough until I turn it off and back on. Today I went out after it sat all weekend and didn’t...

    I have a 2002 passat GLS 1.8 that takes 2 or 3 cranks in the morning or when sitting for 6+ hours to start. It'll sputter for 3 seconds before idling. Runs normal and starts normal the rest of the time as long as it doesn't sit for longer than 6 hours. It seems to be fuel related but what do I...

    I been puzzled by this for a week. I have looked all around and have not found the answer. Car guruand all that is a rip off. Pay $10 for someone to tell you to take it to a mechanic! No thanks, kinda defeats the purpose in their website! So My car just clicks with no turn over. Not the battery...

    I have worked on this care and replaced the coil packs, plugs and several of the hoses that work with the air pump. It is missing the hose from the pump to the one on the top of the engine. I just replaced the coil packs and cleared the codes. The check engine light was off for one day and it...

After a year I had a loose timing belt, no damage on the engine. The tensioner on bank 2 is renewed, is was leaking oil. Now i have the problem that after...

    Hi I have a 2005 1.8T GLS Wagon that just stopped running yesterday. My wife and I are moving about 2 hours away and were driving to a storage unit. I had noticed it started having trouble accelerating about half an hour before we arrived, and when I put it in park at the storage unit the...

    Hi everyone, Having some issues with my Passat (2000 V5 2.3L) as it does not really want to start when hot. No problem starting when cold but once the car warms up it can take up to 4 attempts to start it. Recently I have replaced the crankshaft sensor so that can be ruled out. VCDS does not...

    Did a few searches and came up empty. I have a '03 2.8 4Motion. Have had a check engine light since day 1 and got tired of fixing it so just ignore the light. It now has driveability issues which makes it so the wife won't drive it. Climate control issues are what started it, but now it...

    Hey guys, finally warmed up enough to get my hands dirty with the oil leak issues. Have the PCV replacement hoses/parts, VCGs, RTV, video instructions, etc. Hopefully this goes a little easier than the timing belt job! First time on this job too, so I'm sure I'll run into some snags. So, I...

    Having an odd starting problem that has been an intermittent issue for years, but is now becoming a more consistent (and highly annoying) occurrence.. Car will start to crank normally when starter is engaged for about a second. Then the starter makes a loud clunk, pauses for about half a...

    It's been creeping up slowly - and today it had a hell of a time starting. Usually, when I turn the key to ACC - I hear a couple of small clicks and hear something buzzing etc. Today after filling-up, went to start it up and nothing. No noise or anything. Cranks fine. Tried starting it a...

    Starting trouble; CCT or FPR? A week ago, I started getting a CEL with code 16396/P0012, Advance Setpoint Not Reached. This weekend, so far it only seems to be when the engine's warm, but I'm having trouble starting. It's acting like there's not enough fuel, but once the engine finally does...
