What is yours running now?

Thanks for looking, that top one is in the trader @ the moment, and the bottom one is tiptronic. :( I should be picking up a POLO COUPE on Sunday for a runaround, that way i dont have to rush and can wait for the exact thing Im looking for. The gutting thing is about a week before selling my VR ther...

Well i just phoned them up and someone has put a £100 deposit down on it already.

What do you think to this: http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www/cars/VOLKSWAGEN+PASSAT/Ne-2-4-5-6-7-8-27-44-49-53-61-64-67-103-133-146-236,N-62-240-4294967158-4294967159/advert.action?R=200830314812390&distance=209&postcode=pl4+8nh&channel=CARS&make=VOLKSWAGEN&model=PASSAT&am...

That early, that must mean that all B5's must surely have them!

Mine was fine in the winter months and it didnt have to generate as much cold air etc, but when its warm and idle it has to work super hard to get the cold air in due to their none being forced through the engine. Which is why you shouldnt really use your a/c when going below 30mph! It uses more fue...

When did VW introduce the BLUE AND RED dials to the dash in the Passat B5?

I want to make sure i have some!

Well as the autotrader came out again today...nothing to my spec.

A couple of V5's but im assuming thats worse than both the 1.8t and the V6!

I like the refinements you get with the V5 (leather etc...) but they seem to lack any real power (150bhp)

Will have a look @ 1.8t's also then.

Someone please correct me if im wrong. When your compressor comes on I THINK that the engine requires a little bit more power to get it too work, the same kind of thing when the second fan comes on. (Do Passats have twin fans?) Im only going on what happened with the VR. Used to idle @ 600rpm then w...

My g/f dads Passat seems to have the same sort of problem @ the moment. He has replaced EVERYTHING except the Condensor and it continues to only put out the same kind of air...but on occassions the A/C does come on. Its a shame your not in the south west, i know a bloke that gassed my VR and he know...

I wouldnt mind actually getting the software for this...i can source a laptop pretty easily i reckon, then you could add me to the list.

You crashed your car into some bushes...

Yeah, ive had a look through but was hoping people had taken photos at shows etc that i wouldnt have seen.

...for all Black or Silver B5 or B.5 Passat saloons.

I have always loved black,but its a pain to clean and im finding it hard to find one in black. So, the other and only other alternative is to have one in silver.

Could you guys give me some inspirational photos of some in both colours. Thanks

Oooo i wouldnt mind a set of those when i get my Passat

What wheels are they?

Looks smart now its lowered! Good work mate! 8)

I used to have Falken 512's on my VR6. Good in the dry, poo in the wet. But did the job...a tyre was a tyre to me.

Hath! Lol,i remember when he used to live down this way!

The Passat im looking for is VERY specific!

Um...could have to do some modifying if i cant get on with it on.

Good man, cant wait to see what they look like on. 8)
