I saved a wagon (2007 Passat) from the crusher recently, or at least I hope I have. She's got about 150k miles on the clock, 2.0 automatic. The car is in really great shape, but that's all I know about it. Here's the dilemma. The reason the previous owner was sending her to scrap was because...

Hey, thought I'd introduced myself already, but here we go again! nice to meet you!

I am winging it on the prices. If they are a steal commit and pay before I realize it?. I will do some research in the next few days and also look to post pictures as well. Taking the Passat apart before it goes to the scrapper. All parts are plus shipping. Ko4 turbo. Genuine, not a knock off...

I have been having a problem with engine knock. The car is a 4 speed and the shift point used to be at 40 mph. Due to the load put on the engine, it would knock. I had the timing changed to 6 degree BTC and the shift point changed to 60 mph. The 4th gear drive would hold until you dropped to...

Has anybody with the automatic hatch has look into taking the moors apart for repairs?

I'm interested in buying another W8. I'm going to collect these if possible. Once I go thru the learning curve on a car I stick with it. The weak parts of this car is the glovebox hinges, and sunroof drains. I need a rear bumper cover. One commentor in the seats section said he went to...

If you get a check engine light and large evap leak code like I did on my 09 wagon, check to see if your gas cap wiggles a little or a lot after tightening. If so, you can order the part 1K0-201-557-A from the dealer for way less than the entire cap and swap it out in under a minute. Mine was...

Can anyone tell me how far away from the ring the sensor is supposed to sit? or how much space there should be (exposed silver part)? I had swapped the ABS/WSS and now I have the ABS kick on at the very end of braking......which from what anyone has told me has to do with the sensor being too...
