UKPassats

Welcome to UKP. Enjoy

That's what I had on my B6, 13pin and I bought a 13 to two 7 pin conversion lead, so in theory if I use the 7 to 13 pin converter, I could use the same setup with the B% as I did with the B6. In my head this works :-? :-? :-?

Bought a scale now of the bay : http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MAYPOLE ...

Bloody hell, this nose weight malarkey is serious stuff, lol :-P

Ok, I assume I need to buy some kind of scales to test the weight prior to hook up, fleabay next step :mrgreen:

Electrics
The tow electrics on the B5 consists of a single 7pin. I know that the caravan requires two 7 pin ...

cheers yogib5, is it the nose weight of the caravan that I have to find out or the max weight that the Passat will manage ?

Has anyone on here towed a caravan with their slammed Passat ??

Any advice regards my fitted Fk coilovers, ie how much do I need to raise rear and can I harden the ride to compensate extra weight.

Thanks guys.
Just drove to Cardiff from York today, never missed a beat - loving it

Really nice mate, Just needs a set of split rims now

I also think it looks better without the bra.

Great read, keep it up...

I was there the other week, your right..... Talk about twitchy bum syndrome..... @-)

And to make matters worse I had to put up with the wife in my left ear hole "Well you will go out and buy these stupid cars", Yeah , and the next mod is an 007 style ejecter seat!!! lol X(

Love her to bits ...

Have you got the c spanners? A flat bit of road/driveway?

Yeah, the guy I bought it off left two of these 'C' spanners in the boot. Got a nice flat drive, trolley jack etc.

About an hour !!!, take me that to find the locking wheel nut tool, then tea break etc... :hyst

Thanks for the advice ...

Hi all,

Just bought a B5.5 slammed on coil overs (-100mm), went out on its first outing to a national trust park (Clumber) with the wife and kids, *no swearing* me it was a mental nightmare, speed bumps hell !!!!..

Never ever EVER am I going there again in the B5.5.

Got me thinking tho that ...

Hell and Welcome to UKP.

Very nice looking car but what is the actual colour as I assume that is a Photoshop tint, unless the guy in the background got the same colour!!
And the grass has all turned purple lol. Done on my Nexus, here is the original.
