UKPassats

Hi guys, I've not had the chance to come on here for a very long time. I used to be here daily looking for Parts for my old B5 1.8T. Since having to strip and sell the car for parts, ive not really had a chance to pop back on to the forum. I have a few videos of my old PASSAT on my YouTube Channel ...

Car looks rather good pete

Sorry to drag this up bud, but if you haven't purchased anything just yet, then the best product to purchase for this, is AutoSmart Tardis. It comes as a 5 litre tin, and you use it neat. It's rather cheap and all you need to do is organise a meet with your local AutoSmart dealer. You can find them ...

I like this alot Ell!

Enjoy the exhaust!

i cant believe that in 5 hours ive not had a reply.

you guys are meant to know what your doing

hey guys, ive had a problem for about 3 months with my heater, when put onto Full it doesnt get hot. i have read in places that the two pipes that enter the bulkhead can be blocked - Can i pull these two pipes off the car without anything happening? - Do these pipes contain Liquid? - Take them off ...

Hey guys I have been looking at different scanners/Readers for a while now but I'm not sure which to buy as I don't know which software is needed? I currently own a B5 (2000 on a Y reg) Passat 1.8t (petrol) I've put up that its patrol as that seems to make a difference with some machInes. Do I need ...

I am having this problem too...

For me, not actually understanding the technical chat above, what can I do to solve this problem?

Saturday I came back to the car and there was a small pool of water (not coolant or oil) it was just water... Could this have been air con pipes(condensation)?

How did the loan go?

Hi everyone.. I know your all probably sick of these requests by now, but i would really appreciate if somebody could do me a Photoshop of the Wheels Below (See Pic 1) onto the Silver Zafira Please (See Pic 2) Pic 1 http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d131/subaruSon/Cars/BBSCHBlack.jpg Pic 2 http ...

i think its a photoshop!!

BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN TAKING THE OLD VALVE OFF!!!

i just broke my old valve when trying to cut the clip off the nipple on the top

I had the exhaust fitted at the garage, I'll ask one of the lads down there but I'm not sure

im not sure about the oil cooler on a Non Turbo engine... but it was just a thought as i hate spending money if it doesnt need spending... but id get it done if thats what you think it is..

Instinct is usually the best sign anyhow!!

i would say, rather than getting your mechanic to do the HG... id get him to replace the oil and the coolant after a good flush... mine was the Oil Cooler that went a year back when i got reversed into and had pretty much the same symptoms... thats the cheapest bet and the one that you can do at ...

i always use Tesco Momentum... nothing else

hey guys, i bought a Milltek exhaust from a fella on here... it was bought as a used product and i had it fitted last month. On saturday i heard a very small (pop/Bang) but it didnt sound bad enough to warrant me pulling over and nothing happened to the car at all. but i arrived home and left the ...

HELLO EVERYBODY!!!!!!! Blimey its been a long time since i updated this thread!!! ITS MASSIVE UPDATE TIME!!! Apart from the normal Cleaning, Servcing and general Making me bankrupt :lol: not much has been happening really... Up until now! Everything is in order - well to a degree!! I had a bet with ...

mine isnt!!!

hey guys, After all the Questions and answers i have posted on here, i have now done everything i can do on my car, but nothing seems to help. I am now, in desperate need of a car trailer!! or somebodies time to take my car to Lakeside from Hastings. (it will need to be Towed/Trailered) I can cover ...

to be totally honest, i am not happy with the garage that i took the car to last year. I have checked everything on that car and i know that the coolant wasnt changed or flushed when it last went in and that was one of the jobs on the list. this is why i am going to take it to AmD as it is a very ...

LOVE THIS!!!!!

what roof box is that? size and model?

im after one and that looks right about perfect!!

i have the same problem with my 1.8T but by the sounds of it mine is more severe! lol

mine goes in for work on the 18th so ill let you know what it is!

hi guys thanks for your replies, can i take the throttle body off myself with a few 'NOVICE' tools? or is it tricky? i have a stainless exhaust that will go on soon, but i cant fit it at home as its a pain to get to. this evening i have replaced the spark plugs and one of my plugs was covered in oil ...

i changed my spark plugs about 30 mins ago and on one of my plugs was covered in (what i believe) oil.

would this be right?
is it normal?
do i have underlying issues?
Is my car going to heaven?
