Hi all! My first post. I bought a 2003 passat glx 2.8l with 190k about a year ago. Problem: Engine start ticking (like loud lifters) recently on passenger side towards rear of engine, seemed like last two cylinders but then more towards back. I stoped driving it just about immediately. After...

04 V6 w- 167,240 on the mileage On startup after my car's been sitting overnight or after 8-10 hrs (work shift) I can hear a slight ticking from the motor. Not every time though. Some times it's more noticeable then others. I hear it more when I'm parked between 2 cars or a wall on one side...

2000 vw passsat 5 sp 1.8T. Just got timing belt done at 165 miles and I'm now at 166. Sometimes if I've been driving for a while and I'm idling I hear this consistent click that sounds like it's coming from the front lower part of the engine. It doesn't sound like anything bad but I'm worried...

About a month ago I bought a 1999 Passat and it had 2 problems, the secondary air pump running continuously (which I will save for another thread), and my power locks. At first I believed the problem with the locks to be within the driver side door. There was a trick to getting it to lock. I...

Has anyone ever come across this before? The car ticks, 24/7, like a bomb's about to go off. It's coming from the engine compartment, I think, in the bit in front of the (UK) Driver's steering wheel. Very odd. Think it's electrical -- but don't have any idea what it is, and Google fails to...

Hi PW, I am having an issue with my 2004 v6 passat (120K miles). There is a ticking noise when I idle only, but when i give it gas it goes away. When the RMP drops to around 900 or less, it starts to make the ticking sound. This started to occur after I got my alternator changed. I will try to...

have been working on my passat and cant ignore this ticking noise coming from the engine. my ssat has 90k, have already changed out the timing belt tensioner pulley alternator and water pump. Also theres a second noise coming from the engine and sound almost like a hole in a tire, i have checked...

Seems slightly more prevalent at startup... but sometimes continues while warmed up. Thanks!

So my car's running pretty great, a few minor fixups I'd like to eventually get into, but for now awesome. However... recently a little issue has developed with the turn signal, or something related. You're obviously aware of the normal ticking sound inside the car when the turn signal is on...

Hello everyone, I am new to the forum and have been searching and reading through here for hours now about these cars. I recently bought a 2004 Passat (B5.5) and I really love how quite and smooth it is. I have one question for you guys that hopefully someone can answer: When accelerating...

Hey all, I have a 2001 (New) Passat 1.8t and during the past few weeks, the car starts fine and runs fine when cold. However, after about 20 minutes of driving, the car emits a LOUD ticking noise when below 1000rpm (read: idle). Whenever any throttle is applied, ticking immediately goes away. I...

Hi, Is it normal for the part on top of the air intake to make a ticking sound ? It is marked as A on this picture It is not too loud but noticeable when outside the car. Steady quick tick-tick-tick regardless of the rpms. As of something opens and closes very fast Thanks, Viktor

Hi. I have a 2007 1.9tdi passat. I can hear a muffled knocking sound from the air intake pipes and air box. It's as if the air is not getting through. Also if I rev the engine over 1500 rpm a loud ticking sound come from around the throttle/egr. The car seems to be starved or air and judders...

Hi, I have a UK spec. Passat 2007 - DSG Automatic. When the engine starts from cold I hear a ticking noise from under the bonnet. It kinda sounds like Morse code and once the engine is warm, its either gone or undetectable. When I had my car in the mechanic for something else, they told me that...

My 1.9 has started making that nasty tapping sound, just like petrol engines make when the clearences/cam goes. Will it be the same thing on the TDi 1.9 engine or is there other things that can wear and make for a ropey sounding engine? Cant stand an engine that ticks, it was lovly n smooth...
