Got one from down south, a replacement

Found the problem yesterday. Called an auto spark in, he found the ecu flooded with water. The drains under the wipers were blocked with leaves moss etc

2010 passat estate, 140,000 mls, used every day, engine code cbab, model c35. Also no communication with snap on ethos

Went out this morning and the car wont start. Kicks and stalls, will not keep running. Also notices that I no longer see glow plug light, dpf light with ignition on. Any help appreciated

What about the micro switch at the bonnet catch ? Had the same problem with my sons A4. Thats if the passat has one.

Not posted in a while. All of a sudden my Radio/Sat nav will not switch on. All I get are a couple of flickers on the screen. Any ideas ?

SRS Lamp, ABS Lamp, ESP Lamp. EML is just an advisory

Top strut mtg m8. Done one on my 2010 a month ago.

Im surprised that only the rocker is damaged, without any damage to valves or the cam shafts. I think you need to closely monitor this and maybe inform VWCS, future problems like noise, performance issues, lumpy acceleration, further damage to the engine block can all be symptoms of this kind of in...

Well guys the car has been back on the road for over a month and no problems as yet. Has had two oil and filter changes since then. Still going good. Bloody stupid design though I have to admit.

But does anyone have the answer to my question: tool part number ?

Checked it today. No oil at turbo and none coming out when we removed the oil pressure switch. Thanks for pointing in the right direction.

No point in getting a new turbo on a blb until the oil pump drive has been addressed which maybe the route cause of the turbo failure. A blb is double trouble as it has both the troubled 77 mm hex drive and a chain tensioner that likes breaking. The bare minimum is a replacement more reliable tenti...

My passat/my son's seat exeo and a friends golf all are affected

A VAG forum mot tester said this today .. "I am an MoT tester and only this week I tested a 2010 Golf 2.0 TDI 2.0. When it came to the emissions test like nearly all Golf that are 2010 2011 2012 registered, it would not rev past 2500 revs even with my foot down to the floor. Surely VOSA must h...

Guys when any of you's had the tailgate replaced, how long was your car in the body shop for ?

Since having my car inspected on Easter Monday I had a phone call today stating that they are going to replace the tailgate under warranty but not the corrosion on the roof just above the rear door rubbers. I asked why not and the answer was: doors are miss-aligned ? What a load of poo. When the ca...

Cheers for posting this as mine is going through the process soon.

We had that with a Jetta. Seal was fitted the wrong way

Sorry I forgot to reply with regards to the Sat Nav problem. It turned out to be the shark fin antenna on the roof, water had got inside it and caused corrosion within. Fixed now

Hi Guys, The last couple of mornings the car started but sounded a little lumpy for a second or two then OK. This morning started and cut out. Could not hear the pump in the tank running. Checked and no live feed to the pump ( blue/red wire). Gave it a live feed via a wire and started no problem. An...
