I hate that misconception of excessive negative camber being blamed for inside tyre wear on lowered vehicles.

Re: Time to throw in the passat.

My dad's old 406 2.1td Executive has appeared down the road 7 years after it was sold on with 150k , the old Pug looks great with no rusty wings unlike the money pit, self destructive B6.

Re: Swamp passat.

I agree , but every seal must be attended to as a matter of course.

Plenum bungs out
New Pollen Filter Housing
New ECU Housing seal
Seal bonnet cable grommet &
Seal bottom half of metal door panels

usually results in a dry B5.5 Passat

the cost in parts , under £25 .
