My sister's B5 does the same thing. I've heard cheap replacement axles are to blame because the shaft is too narrow, but since good axles are expensive, I haven't convinced her to replace them. Can anyone confirm?
2002 Passat B5.5 AZM Engine vibrates after all mountings replacments :(
Hi guys,
I replaced all mountings (Snub,2 Engine,rest gear mountings) 2 months back. And i am not satisfied much because my headlights still vibrates at idle and stop lights. Even some plastic inside cabin vibrates
I usually feel the most vibration when i cold starts. At first its little vibration which increase as rpm goes down till 800rpm.
Vibration is reduced little when i switch on a/c and also During driving vibration is very less and cant be felt much.
What i felt is that engine just vibrate at idle on its own.
Where should i start and suspect ?
2002 Passat B5.5
AZM Engine , 150000kms.
Timing belt replaced at 90,000 kms.
New tyres and both wheel alignment and Wheel balance done 2 months back.
Thanks and Regards,
Rashid Jafar

Yes Zach. I installed the snub mount by accelarating few times And then i torqued the bolts.
But even today i felt more vibration at a stage where my rpm came 800 from a cold start.
Feels like small wobbling due lack of something
