Passat CC Handling Upgrades

Hi all, Just looking for advice on some handling upgrades for the Passat CC, I have a 2010 GT TDi model with 115k miles (and climbing). The car has -25mm eibach springs and DCC that's about it. I've hear subframe mounts and TT control arms/bushes? Also I've seen an underbody alloy brace: https://i.e...

Re: 2010 CC Intermittent Steering Wobble @65+mph - suspect rack?

Thanks, I have since put the original 18" wheels back on and the issue has changed speed. It now seems the steering wobble is at higher speeds. In itself this is a great improvement, at indicated speeds below 75-80 mph there is nothing really noticeable, above 75mph and it creeps back in but no...

Re: RNS310 / Radio intermittent fault - switching off - restarting

Right, progress today. Done 150 miles this week and I think I've found the issue. It seems to be the SD card causing the problem. About 6 months ago I got what I thought was a genuine 2017 UK and western Europe maps SD card. However loading the maps seems to cause the unit to crash and restart. With...

Thanks, I checked all the fuses on the end of the dashboard. Do I need to check the underbonnet ones too?

I may be wrong but I think you can code using VCDS to turn sidelights (front) as DRL (so are live when ignition is on) you could then use this feed and loop to DRL's.

RNS310 / Radio intermittent fault - switching off - restarting

Hi All, I'm getting an increasingly more frequent fault on my 2010 passat CC tdi. The head unit (RNS310) randomly re-starts. It only happens when the engine is running (and so far when moving). It doesn't happen when the engine is off. I can't attribute it to any other function on the car, I've mess...

Advice for a 2.0TDi Passat CC buyer please

Afternoon All, My first post and I'm looking for some advice on buying a used Passat CC (or CC as they are now known).
