    I have a 2015 Wolfsburg. After about 20 minutes on the highway the air(both hot and cold)stops coming from the vents. The only way to fix is to pull over turn to defrost and hot and wait. The air will eventually start coming out of the vents again.

    when I come to a stoplight with my Passat 5.5 V6, there is a vibration that I notice. It's not a terrible vibration but certainly not as quiet and smooth as my wife's Camry. Is there anything that can be done to smooth this condition? Is this just normal for a Passat? I've asked to decrease...
