Hello everyone, A bit of background first. It's a 2007 Passat B6 Saloon 2.0L BPY. I bought it 2 months ago from a person who told me that the wipers do not work. A couple of weeks before selling it, he took it to a garage because the rear windows were not working anymore. They found a cut...

Hi all recently bought a 2002 VW Passat that has auto wipers however they don't seem to work properly. I also own a BMW with auto wipers and I had the same problem when I had a new windscreen fitted as they fitted the wrong one on it so they had to change it again then the auto wipers work...

Hey everybody, First time posting so I can reply to a thread on wiper chatter. I know there are a few threads on the topic, and I had the problem with the "Armless" arms.. Anyway, some models come with the regular hook style arms, and I read a thread that somebody sourced the same style arms...

I'm not sure if this is a thing, but.. I'm in need of a new windshield after mine cracked a while back (I don't want to specify how far back so as to avoid the grief I'm sure to get), and I have become aware of the optional Rain Sensor located in the windshield. I'm curious as to how much work...

Hi, I have a 2005 passat TDI wagon. When I start the car, the e-brake warning light comes on. While the light is on, the wipers, heat/air blowers and signal light won't work. When this first started, it would go off after 30 seconds. Now, especially after a long drive, it won't go off at all...

Hello all, Just as my title says I have an 06 Passat 2.0T and the wipers stopped working and I replaced the motor twice with a used motor from a parts supply (junk yard) and the motor wont work. I have power to the plug but the motor wont work. I asked the jy to check the motor prior to...

Yes, I've had my 2000 Passat (V6 GLS 4motion) for 15 years now. It's starting to give me little pesky problems. So, the latest... I tried looking for this issue here, but don't see it: The windshield wipers won't turn off. When I put it on the off position, they keep working at normal speed...

Hi all, Just wondering if anyone came across this issue with a 2009 B6 Estate. Just happened out of the blue and I checked fuses etc but everything is intact. Any help or pointers gratefully appreciated. Thanks in anticipation...

Does anyone here have any experience with the Auto Wipers function?? I know: #1. Our 2013 does have the sensor plus the harness. #2. Some V-W Techs don't know squat about it. #3. Would my wife like it?? #4. What is the sequence-of-operation? #5. Any anything else? S.E.

Hello all, I have a 2008 2.0t that recently threw a timing belt. I had the top half of the engine rebuilt, and the guy did a decent job on the motor, but when I got it back the wipers had a funky half-second pause at the top of travel. (For about a week-) then they stopped altogether and would...

Hey everybody! Brand new to the forums... And to owning a VW. I've got a bit of fixing up to do, so I'll probably be posting regularly on the forums. Both asking questions, and offering what help I might be able to give.. For now, I've got a question about the radio, and another about the...

So recently, for some reason my wipers stopped working. I flick the washer stalk and it doesn't even make a sound. I've checked the fuse and it is still good. I also just bought and installed a new ignition switch but still nothing. The washer jets still work but that's about it. Anybody have...

I have a 05 Passat wagon 1.8T, when I say best I mean as in "no fitment issues" and also of course wipe the hell out these windows clean basically lol. Any where I can go and which ones? Please all opinions welcomed to this subject.

I started my 2012 Passat SE this morning and scraped the frost off the windshield and cleaned beneath the wipers. I then got back in the car and tried to activate the windshield wipers, but they would not work. Any suggestions on a quick fix or where to check first? Thanks!

Hi, My 1999 Passat Sport 1.9 TDI wipers have stopped working. They did this about a year ago and before I was able to analyse the fault they started again. Have worked fine again until a couple of days age. nWhile they were working there were no issues with hesitation, parking, or speeds, seeme...

So yesterday morning there was alot of water on the windshield which is normal of course. Went to turn on the wipers and they get stuck up top. Tried to get out the car and pull the wipers up to reset them which worked. Tried to wipe the windows again and then the drivers side wiper pops off the...

:wrench: So I talked to my local VW service manager, I'd recalling see that auto wipers were partially discontinued in 2013 and fully discontinued in 2014; as soon as I saw this I knew something was up. My service rep said the VW auto windshield wipers for the Passat don't work very well from...
