Re: 55 plate passat,steering lock light and coil light

Joy. I have had the stearing lock failure (red) pop up on the dash twice over the last few months. If take the key out and wait a few seconds, and then start up everything seems OK - I don't get the error. :???: Will have to keep an eye on it, hoping that it's just a phase......... (55 plate, 140)

Re: B6 Had enough

Not happy with my B6 really. Had it almost 3 years, and although I never really have any problems, the amount of times I have had to take it to a Garage because if warning lights etc is unreal. I like the look of the B7, but not sure I'd go and buy one based on my experience with the B6. Loved my B5...

Re: Exhaust Warning Light

Doesn't say DPF on the Icon and the booklet claims it's an exhaust fault, might have to admit defeat and take it to a stealer :cry:

Thanks anyway, and sorry for my slow reply :-o

Re: Exhaust Warning Light

Hi all

This light appeared on my dashboard today, just wondered if it's likely to be an expensive fix? Any idea as to what could have caused the problem?

Got it booked in tomorrow, hope it's nothing too bad!!

Re: Thinking about selling

Na it's not a sport, I think it's just the standard 2.0 TDI 140 (SE I believe). http://dontstop.co.uk/car/n522061743_1516007_9615.jpg http://dontstop.co.uk/car/n522061743_1516009_264.jpg Would be up for selling if I knew I'd get an okay amount for it, although no idea what the "going" rate...

vent under rear window?

Hi

There's a vent (or what looks like a vent) along the bottom of my rear window inside the car. I have no idea what it's for - no air comes out of it. What is it's purpose? It's bugging me ! :mrgreen:

Re: Which B6 TDI Model Is The Best To Go For?

Sports have 17" wheels and lowered suspension, privicy glass but not leather. SE's are the run of the mill middle of the range, but still very nice. SEL's are the top spec, but lack the sports (sporty) bits and are as rare as rocking horse poo. Highline is the replacement (albeit better spec) ...

Re: Installing a Sub and Amp into the B6

I went to VW the other day and they claimed that the head unit I have has everything I'd need to install a sub. I don't bet that they're correct though.

Any idea where I can get the clips to pull the head unit out?
