I'm going to check this show out. It's on Saturday, Sep 3, in a Chicago suburb called Grayslake, a little ways west of the Tri-State Tollway (I-94). For those who know my rather unique VW enthusiast status, a purist that likes STOCK water-cooleds, I'm thinking this event could potentially have...

Those sneaky Germans installed software in all 2015 and 16 Clean Diesels that can detect when an emissions test is being done and turn on emissions controls to pass the test. Other than those times the Clean Diesel cars ain't so clean! VW has also stopped selling all Clean Diesel cars in the US...

I know I cannot play movies in anything but the DVD slot of the RNS510 itself..I have already tried via the SD card...Is there a way to connect a USB slot to the RNS510, and if so, will it play movies off of the USB drive?

Did any of you find worn ball joints? And which if any of the bushing did not appear to be worn? I'm questioning this because I'm about to do some repairs and I'm leaning toward just replacing any bushings that are worm. Also let me ask the age old question. Has anyone had positive...

Well... on my way home from work yesterday, I was following behind a Audi A4, and by the badging on the back, it had the 1.8T. It also had what I call a "trash can" exhaust tip. Anyway, the car didn't sound like I expected.... the exhaust was fairly quiet, with a good exhaust tone.... And as...

What RPMs do you switch gears at when fully warmed up? I switch around 3k to 3.5 in 1st and 2nd and 2.5 to 3k in 3rd-5th when i'm not spirited driving..

Anyone know why so many B5 wagon's are FS? Seems like it's 1976 all over again but the B5 wagons are Ford Pintos. ducks from all the shoes thrown by wagon owners (Go check Vortex B5 classifieds or CB5 classifieds) The W8 wagons are understandable (nice engine, but thirsty; pull engine to...

2004 Passat wagon, 1.8T AWM, 5sp, 4motion, Anthracite interior The door pull/window switch panel insert on my driver's door has seen better days. It is scarred up from over 10 years of use and if the weather is right, it is sticky! I'm guessing exposure to dirt, oil from my hands, cleaners...

Enjoy.

I recently picked up a 2001 sedan with a blown 1.8T AWM engine. It's got full leather, winter package, TIP, etc. 125K miles, and I paid a whopping $650. I was told it suddenly "made a bad noise and shut off", so after discovering that it was nearly out of coolant I pulled the head and found...

really love those wheels, but can't find out what they are, and if they are available in America

i'm new to the forums. i just got a 99 passat a few weeks ago, and i'm starting to tackle some of the problems after getting the clutch/flywheel, fixed, and a brake job done. i need to replace some wiring for the headlights, but i'm not sure how to properly remove the "clips" that hold the...

Anyone ever change out the white nylon (?) rings on the tips of the fuel injectors on a Passat 2.0t bpy? My car is a 2007. I'm rebuilding the engine an went to reinstall the intake manifold. The gasket kit comes with these rings new so I took off the old one. The new ones are REALLY tough to...

I'm seriously thinking about bagging my 04 V6 FWD Passat. I was going to go with ST Coilovers until I drove a few bagged cars with Accuair switchspeed and Airlift performance bags and I was very surprised with them. I have driven some passat's with the ST's and I came to the conclusion that they...

I can not figure out what those metal panel clip are called! I've googled every mutation I can think of ... I seem to have misplaced/lost/broke some, and need to order a few. They are the metal clips located on most dash panels, floor trim, etc on the B5. For instance, here they are on the...

To some, pictures are worth a thousand words—so here's 9,000 words worth of why everyone who has had to replace their CV axles praises Marty and his products to the moon and back. Raxles rule! :wrench:

I bought a 2003 Passat wagon 1.8t with close to 99,000 miles. The car itself was super clean, but it did need some minor but typical maintnance items done. Since buying it a little over a month ago(with the help of this website) I have swapped out the cabin filter,airfilter to K&N, replaced a...
