My 2002 audi a4 (awx engine)
Has just started leaking coolant from the same area,

Quick question... do all the awx engines use an alloy coolant flange with o ring or are some plastic?

ive used ngk & bosch over the years with my passat & cant fault either of them

as said earlier vac lines are the first port of call,

then would be a "diagnostic fault code read" with some readings in live data,

then a clean of the vnt geometry in the hot side of the turbo

my old afn engine was too old for a remap through the obd socket,
but bought an already done ecu from "blacksmoke"
very happy with purchase, car pulls like a train & still gets decent mpg
"highly recommended"

ios 8.0.2 is the new update available now,

wish i left mine on ios7 cant get used to this like

if it is not broken don't fix it guys

But what about B5.5's with decated downpipes ? if the cat/particle filter is not there, "replaced with de-cat pipe" it is now a failure! as stated in the mot special notices, if the tester fails to check this or misses it on his own head be it! but is now a failure! however gutting the in...

i have a "drive box" too,

mine would not work on my early ve engined tdi, but worked fine on b5.5 tdis
unfortunately though im up in the north east,

dave is the man! he should be able to sort it no probs

very common for the bottom corners of the radiator to weep slightly with a bit age

i recently put a "blacksmoke" chipped ecu onto my afn engined passat,
with really good results

key may need clearing in the ccm with vcds & re learned,

here you go,

this only works on ccm with numbers starting 1C0

hi paul,
welcome to the ukpassat forum

I find it eaiser just to move the air con rad out of the way and remove the complete front Lots more room Dave i do the same as dave, radiator drained of water & complete front end swung to one side, gives you loads of room & the job is loads easier like that for the sake of a couple of ext...

i used a tuning box on my afn engined tdi a couple of years back for 2 weeks & cost me an injection pump, x_x as said earlier a re-map is the only way really, :ymapplause: i have just recently fitted a re-mapped ecu to mine & has been perfect, pulls like a train up hills & goes like a sc...

may have become out on sync,

try locking car with key & pressing the buttons at the same time

egr delete on pre 53 is ok, but after then needs the ecu re mapping to take the light out

yes mate, these will fit all from 97 B5 right upto 05 B5.5 as long as they are both the same drive,
ie, 2wd or 4wd as they dont cross over

same fitting, however the paint spots on the springs identify the spring rate & spec,
some are lower than others but are all interchangeable

i fed a length of vac pipe down into the turbo through the egr hole in the exhaust manifold, and sprayed the cleaner down the vac pipe, left to soak & then worked the actuator rod, after a couple of cleans mine was perfect :-bd (under no circumstances spray the cleaner into the intake, or cold s...

just got one of their chipped (afn) ecu,s really good torque delivery & still returns good mpg,

highly recommended

older ve engined tdi passats could run bio, but would NOT recommend using in the pd engine

nice looking passat

with that big arch gap when you first got it, it must have started off life as an se i take it?
as mine was the same, mine looked like a 4x4

every time i have done the afn filter i just filled the new filter with diesel
& just started the car, then left running 5 minutes or so to let the air in the system to flow
back to the tank, never had any real problems with this & never ever had to bleed mine

Sorry buddy but you are stuffed. Exactly the same on mine a few months ago. There are some very good how 2s out there to change it. Get the new lock first as you have to totally destroy the old one to get it to unlock. ive done loads of these where the printed circuit board has failed whilst the do...
