  1. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    So my 2005 V6 Passat has had a hard time starting it left sitting in the cold for a few days in the past. I’ll start it and it’ll be fine hen but a rough start. Sometimes it’ll be tougher and it’ll run rough until I turn it off and back on. Today I went out after it sat all weekend and didn’t...
  2. WTB/WTT Section
    I'm looking for an ATW cylinder head for a 2000 B5 1.8T I'm in the process of repairing the car I just bought here on PW. I also need the outside lower weather strips that attach to the doors and run across the outside of the car to prevent rain/moisture from getting in the car. TIA

    I have weather stripping for a b5/5.5. It is for all 4 doors. It is black, and in really good condition. I bought them from a member on here a few months ago, and I ended up not using them. I am looking for $150 shipped in the US. If anyone is interested in some 18" AVUS wheels, I might be...

    So I was looking to get Weather Tech floor liners for the front only - $110.00. Granted it's Texas and usually don't have more than rain to worry about. I volunteer for Meals On Wheels deliveries - my own dedicated route on Tuesdays and sometimes fill in for others. Mud is more my concern than...

    Lately, my area has been dropping temperature big time. My car usually runs well around 35-40 degress +, but lately I've been hearing issues with my Turbocharger. It will spool, but I can hear a "ckkgghh" noise as if something is rattling. I dont feel a power loss, though there MAY be a slight...

    I just purchased a set of votex bars, and have read somethings about weather stripping in the slots. Do i need this? or is it ok to not have it?

    Went out this am to warm up the 2005 1.8T 4motion sedan, temp @ 0°. Cranked slow but it did start. Went out front to let the dog out, when I returned it was not running. Maybe water / condensation froze in the line or pump? Not really supposed to warm up above freezing for days. Where to...

    Today it was 6F out and I was driving around. The engine got up to temp just fine. After about 15 of highway driving I started to hear bubbling coming from the dash and a slight bit of white coming from the exhaust. The engine temp stayed right at 190F and I was still getting gobs of heat...

    So I'm wanting to buy Weather Tech floor mats for my car. The web site says they don't have the Digital Fit for my car but they do have the mats for a Audi 2004 A4. So my question is, will the Audi 2004 A4 Sedan mats fit my 2004 GLX?

    I read in the forum about the oil cooler seal/gasket/o-ring failing during cold weather. My 2000 Passat V6 leaked last winter when it was really cold in Minnesota but then it warmed up and the engine didn't leak again until this winter when it got very cold again. I'm planning to replace the...

    I am praying it's only the cold weather around here that is the cause to my issue. Basically, in my 2002 v6 fwd glx, my driver's window won't respond to the master switch. It went down fine, but failed to raise when I tried. It makes a grinding or crunching sound when I hit the button. Button up...

    I live in Wisconsin and the weather is absolutely brutal. The temperature has not been over 15° f this week. So I'm not sure if this is what is playing the role of my issues. Car details at the bottom. This morning it was -8 and the car started rough but I made it work just fine. Then I took...

    Hi folks, I've had an issue with the battery draining but it only seems to be in cold weather when the temperature drops to zero or below (Celsius). The battery was tested and was fine, I replaced it anyway as it was at least 4 years old. Now even with the new battery I have the same the issue...

    This is nothing new, and there are plenty of similar threads here, but for new members it might be hard to locate and read all of them. This is by no means a complete list. It's meant to highlight specific Passat-related issues. If you live in a cold climate, you should look up a list of things...

    I'm about to upgrade my 2005.5 1.8t AWM Passat with a Kenwood DDX271 Double Din Touch Screen Receiver. Can anyone comment on how these or any stereos with a touch screen react in large temperature ranges. In Calgary we get -28 C to +33 C. I have an underground parking stall at my condo so that...

    Anyone have a CEL/wrench appear on their 2012 2.5L Passat? The first time this happened was in 105 degree weather in Vegas. The auto tranny started shifting at weird shift points and was quite jerky. I looked up the code and it looks like it has to do with the MAP (or MAF ... not sure what my...

    Have Monster Mats as well as carpeted mats tired of vacuuming all the crap that gathers on the floor, especially the dirt build up by the pedals. Considering ordering the Weather Tech Digifit ft/rear mats. the advertisement looks good. Seems to provide good coverage and fit. Very poor reviews...

  20. Volkswagen Passat B5 Discussion
    It was below zero (Minnesota) and my battery was low, engine turned over but didn't start. I got a jump start and kept trying to start the car off and on for several days. The engine cylinders were flooded with gas. I finally figured out that I needed to keep the gas pedal to the floor and it...
