Re: front door dropped slighlty

i have had good results putting a chock of wood ontop of a trolley jack and jacking the door up to bend the pins slightly.
it works, but my passat is just a dirty works car worth £800 so im not too bothered if it went horribly wrong.
i wouldnt of attempted it in my 2005 a4 tdi.

Re: AFN tuning chip?

it can be done, google hammer mod, once you have done that you could up the boost, at your own risk though !
hammer mod can be done for free and if you have a manual boost controller already you just need to turn the screw ! BUT you must make sure the fuel/air ratio remains safe.

Re: The old water in foot well!!

I used silicone and it was fine but i may of been lucky, probably best to use the correct tape and silicone. You will probably have a nightmare now trying to get it back off.

Re: passat 1.9tdi 4motion advice

I really want it at that price, but the wife has seen a black 2002 330d m sport touring that she wants me to get,it is lovely but the 4wd passat is really appealing.

Re: passat 1.9tdi 4motion advice

The seller is 60 and has owned the car for 6 year, he claims the gearbox has no noises, i had already asked him about the 6 speed box because of a post of yours i had previously read about the 6 speed problems.

Re: passat 1.9tdi 4motion advice

The car i can get is identical to the blue one but have been offered it for £2500 ! Which is tempting but i had my heart set on a 330d sport touring.
The silver one is £1000 more and has 130.000 miles on it.
