  1. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    99 GLS. Ok, so key fob has been working fine, no intermittent behavior, or more limited range. Walked out today, pressed unlock, and nothing. I can manually unlock all the doors, and arm/disarm the alarm, so that's good (and seems to indicate the CCM is functioning properly). So, after some...

    Hello, My heated seats, cigarette lighter ( charger) and window washer motor all stopped at pretty much the same time. My mechanic hasn't yet diagnosed the problem, fuses look fine, suggesting maybe a relay, bnut needing to dismantle part of my dash. Can anyone point me in the right direction...

    Two problems... decided to start one thread for both. First up... my cruise control has stopped working. I haven't done any diagnosis yet. Is there a fuse I could look for? If not, what's the next step? Next... what's the best way to remove the front seat covers? I have a heated seat kit...

    My 2004 TDI air conditioning blows good cold air while driving, but in traffic or sitting at a light the airflow cycles between warm and cool. I check the freon charge and it is fine. At idle in my garage the compressor cycles on and off. Clark

    Driving down the road yesterday, I suddenly felt the car shudder on acceleration and the CEL start blinking. I pulled over, shut her down in some parking lot and drove back. When I came back a few hours later, the car started with no problem, a solid CEL (secondary air incorrect flow), and she...

    My VAG-COM won't connect to my 2001 Passat 1.8T. It was working just fine. I went to connect it up to figure out why I all of a sudden I had an Air Bag light come on and I can't read anything. I have not had any other issues or dash error lights come on until yesterday. I got in the car in...

  8. Volkswagen Passat CC Discussion
    Here's my situation---my 2009 CC was in a fender bender a few weeks ago with damage to passenger rear quarter panel and bumper. Got it back from the shop yesterday and it looks great and runs great. No issues, everything is functioning. A few hours later, the remote key stops working. Will not...

    About a year ago I had a these headlights install by a shop. One of my headlights went out so I bought a new set of H1's to replace them. I noticed while I was replacing them that my low beams were actually wired as my DRL and the three small inner lights were wired as my low beams. I have no...

    2000 B5 sedan of course. The trunk doesn't open or make any noise while using the key fob or the switch in the door. The lights flash as if it is opening but nothing. Only the key will open the trunk. Is this CCM related because nothing else is down/non functioning. Ideas ? Fuses? Switch...

    Gas release button stopped working, I found this out when I had a 1/4 of gas tank left. Auto lock system also is not working, it was on and off for a little bit and then gradually stopped working. Any idea what might be the problem?

    Intermittent rough idle and "hiccups " on push of throttle from stopped position I have seen similar lines but found nothing specific about this problem. The car will start fine and sometimes drive normal for long periods than at a stop light or other stop it will nearly stall when throttle is...

    I have a 99 1.8T with the automatic transmission. When I stop at a light in drive the car vibrates a lot. I already replaced the front snub mount and it made no difference at all. Visually all the other mounts looks good. Could this have anything to do with my worn control arm bushings?
  14. Volkswagen Passat B7 Discussion
    So I did some searching and found the fuse diagrams posted. Unfortunately I can not find anything labeled cruise control. Would love to check the fuse before I call the dealer. Anything else that could be causing an issue? Switch on and it doesn't show up on display and can not be activated...

    Hey guys so the sunroof on my car just randomly stopped working a few days ago. It is the kind with the dial that you can spin clockwise or back in a circle. It has always worked and just died between stops when I was out on the weekend. I pulled the fuse panel open and checked every fuse just...

    Yesterday evening arrived home from some serious shopping at the local Supermarket!! Cleared the boot(trunk) of the bags and found that the car would not lock also the inside lights were not working, the petrol flap would not open and the windows would not open either. Read up the various...

    Hello PassatWorld! I've got a strange electrical problem here so hopefully we can figure this one out together. I'm sure other people have had this trunk failure before. Issue: The trunk release button (down by gas tank button on driver side) suddenly stopped working a couple weeks ago. This...
