Re: IS THERE HOPE!! Passat B6 2005-6 EPB plight

everything you have said in the first few points seems to me like a battery on its way out... what happens if you attach another battery to the car or try to jump start it?

Re: Smoke on cold start up 2.0 140 tdi

Re: Smoke on cold start up 2.0 140 tdi

Just had mine serviced today and 3 of my glow plugs were down and the only sign I could tell was when it was really cold when it started it sounded a bit rough for 2 - 3 seconds... So might be worth pulling the glow plugs out and checking....

May I please ask that you allow .INFO domain's for email addresses, I have to use my hotmail account here as when I try to use my own .info domain here I get:-
