B8 passat boot not opening
Hi all I'm super stuck. My boot wasn't opening. I could hear the solenoid when I was pushing the button key fob and handle etc. But still won't open.

B8 upgrade to apple carplay and maps
Hi all. Can someone let me know if I can upgrade my 2015 radio to the apple carplay one?
My one only has the mirrorlink. (Which I haven't unlocked) so I don't know if I can software update it etc?
Or so need a new unit?
Thank you in advance

That's interesting? Just the gasket would be amazeballs. I was hoping someone else had this problem. Or if someone had done the repair.

I had/have a similar problem. My b6 judders/sticks between 3-4000 rpm etc. it's in my mechanics at the moment, who checked everything out and seems to think the problem is egr related. Actually they think it might be a new type egr gasket needed. As vw have changed the diameter hole in the gasket fr...

When the coolant warning comes on, the coolant looks low but when I release the cap it rises a inch or two back to normal level etc? That's not normal is it?
