Re: Passat b7 high line estate front fogs won’t work
Yep, DRLs in lower bumper, may have been turned off by tool if you are not getting any warning or have you tried changing the bulbs, could be failed LEDs with CANBUS cancel. Had that in the past myself.

My B7 Estate squeak was from the ...

I have a rear passenger door that will not open from the outside since the outside temperature sat at sub zero for a few days.
All door locks were frozen then and I had to use a hairdryer to unlock it.
I reckon the outside handle cable has snapped /slipped off.

Re: Car Alarm going off randomly
Nothing Broke for me, remove the bottom trim where the boot lock is and work upwards to the right. The bit you are prying, remove by pulling upwards.
