Re: Arches Bubbling

I had mine done just a few months ago, Vw apparently dont officially cover arches on passats for perforation but because its common and it is a warranty item for the golf, Vw will do it. If you get any hassle just let them know of the work that has been done on here. Has he checked paint depths yet ...

Alright there fell, yes you can have a full passat b7 interior in your b6, take a look at Jaraz's build thread and he can do the interior work for you, he's very professional!! In regards to R36 parts, genuine parts are extremely rare to find here in UK, best bet for genuine parts are from eBay de (...

Re: B6 owner desperate for help

Was the EPB caliper correctly re wound when doing the replacement parts in addition to being rewound correctly back on ? If not then it causes the pads to be in contact with the disc when driving, other than that im not too sure but im sure others will comment.

Re: 2L TDI Estate Turbo - Q's and maybe Garage Recomendation

A new turbo, including fitting, will be very expensive mate. This does however ensure that its going to be trouble free for relatively long term (as long as you be considerate with the remap and new turbo). Its pretty big job if you are thinking of taking it on yourself, there are second hand units ...

Re: 2 stereo questions.

1) if I bought an RNS510, can I simply replace my 310 with it, or do I need to do something extra to fit it? 2) failing the above, I'd like a recommendation for a replacement that fits the VW.
