Hi all, I appreciate I'm late to the party on this but... I have a 2013 alltrack, 140 6 speed manual, my fourth Passat and it's great, it isn't the quickest or loaded with all the toys but it is a great car to tow with, very sure footed, not bad fuel economy and I've just had it serviced at 34,000 o...

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me what Ampere the standard alt is on a MY2013 Alltrack please with the 140 engine and manual 6 speed gearbox
Thanks Drew

As I understand it as long as the car has followed the service schedule, by an approved garage the warranty should still be valid

Hi All, Just got my car back for Alan Reeds body shop in Shildon after a weeks worth of work to remove the countless dents to my roof, bonnet, wing tops, tailgate,rear roof spoiler door tops, after the hail stone damage and what a cracking job, I don't think it was cheap but I have to say I can't pr...

Thanks again Phil

Hi Phil,

I've read on VCDS users on fb this can be caused by the abs plug terminals corroding
Have you tried Ross techs wiki site for more info ?

Thanks guy's
The auto headlight function works, I've a code reader I'll try but don't hold out much hope, it's not a major issue just something else on my irritation list lol

Hi all, After last weeks nightmare with the hailstones the size of golf balls I've had a new windscreen fitted, the rain sensitive wipers ain't working, the handbook says I need to go to the dealer and have them re calibrated is this something that can be done using VCDS or is there more to it Obvio...

Hi all, As some members, particularly in South west Durham may already know there was a severe storm on Wednesday evening which started a rain with thunder and lightening and ended with hailstones the size of golf balls raining down from the heavens, it was that serious that conservatories, green ho...

Lovely looking car, hope you enjoy

Hi guys,
I appreciate its not gonna be exactly the same but I had a Collarado Red 5.5 saloon a few years back and it was absolutely drop dead gorgeous whatever the weather
Would definitely be my choice on a new build every time

HI

Ive just been looking through my old posts and up popped my 1st B7 Saloon, lovely car

I kind of agree about the price,however I've come back to the Passat and VW after having my head turned by an Audi A4 Avant Black Edition, I previously had a B7 Saloon but really needed an estate, the Audi looked stunning and the LED headlights really set it off but when a gove box light is part of ...

Hi guys, Thanks for the comments, unfortunately VRS73 I've got the hole at the moment, when I did my research I was led to believe you couldn't see where the hole was unless you were on you hands and knees but I think it's quite visible which is annoying Can you buy the silver panel with the detacha...

Hi guys,

Cheers Drew

Hi, I'm on my 2nd B7 I had a 60plate saloon with the 140 6 speed manual set up for two years which never missed a beat, had my head turned by a black edition a4 avant which was poor by comparison and now I've got an Alltrack again the 140 6 speed manual and again it's wonderful I couldn't recommend ...

Hi guys Taken delivery of my new to me Passat Alltrack today, the black edition A4 Avant was a lovely looking car but pound for pound the Passat is way I front, this is my fourth Passat and second B7 and I love it It's only the 140 with a six speed manual box, I'd have loved the bigger engine but th...

Thanks guys,
Service book ordered
Cheers Drew

Hi All,

im in the middle of buying a 63 plate Alltrack and the dealership says you dont get a service book just a printout, ive conacted another VW dealership and they said sometimes you dont get a service book
Can this be right?
Cheers in advance

Thanks Chrisdut for the reply, i thought cornering lights were standard?

Hi Dubber 36

the needle sweep is working which i found strange, the cornering lights are not
thanks or the reply

Hi Guys
Im considering buying an Alltrack, i just need a couple of answers to my questions
Is the needle sweep standard on the Alltrack when you insert the key? also the cornering lights dont work, has someone been tinkering with VCDS ?

Hi All,
Myself and the B7 have parted company, I swear I had a lump in my throat, tho I've not completely left the fold I've changed for an Audi A4Avant Black Edition, was this a wise choice....time will tell, keep on enjoying the B7 chaps
