UKPassats

Local car wash guy's to me offer this as a service and do a good job.
When i was selling my old bmw i took it to them for a valet and got the lights done at the same time.
£15 to do them but to be fair they looked like new after.

Nice looking car.
One car i have never had the Alfa don't know why.

Very funny man RIP.

Can't answer your question but me i would have to plug it back in to see what happened.

It does sound like the mounts.
Sorry i am not much help.

Tayna shift a lot of batteries so you get fresh stock unlike some places where they have been standing around.
Been to them several times very busy place.

I remember on my 5.5 i changed the battery without any jump cables.
When i turned the ignition on the radio thought about it then came back on.
I think the code is stored in some ecu but you never know if you still have the radio that was fitted at the factory so better to be safe.

Not sure on the radio code i never had any problem with the passats i had.
Disconnect the earth then live and connect live then earth well that is i have always done it.

Just make sure you get the old seal out as many havn't and struggled a while before they realised it was still in there stopping the new one going in all the way.

Should be a code stored hopefully and they can sort it out from that.

It is on many car makes.
And easy done.

What sort of damage is there to it.
Any pictures ? will you fix it as it sounds worth fixing.

There's a couple on EBay that are fairly cheap for that year, an exec and highline. the highline has 77k on it for 5.5k Will have a look thanks, my days of travelling hundreds of miles to find a wreck are over lol, I'm up in Scotland the one you want is always the other end of the country lol Very ...

Could have a bit of air in the system.
When was the brake fluid last changed i think it is a 4 year service item.

Under load the voltage will be lower than 13v/12.6v that would be the standing charge.

Alternator won't stop the car from starting if you have a charged battery on it.
Also small squirts of brake cleaner next time you try it.

Try brake cleaner you got nothing to loose.

Don't know 100% but i don't think it is the glow plug itself but could be a faulty controller one or the other.
Sure you will get a better answer soon.

I put the 2 stroke in as well but not the red lol.

Stick some of this in the tank and at every fill up.
Been using it for years improves MPG as well over time when it get's to work.
Turn supermarket diesel into super diesel well sort of.

I have a charger that does that bought it some years ago. Ran it on a 14 year old battery i took off a bmw i had and ran it on that just playing sort of. Well i left the battery on the bench for months when my sister was in need of a battery so we put it on her car and it ran that car for another 3 ...

Lot's on the bay and amazon.

Again not sure but i still think it's down to lack of use.
Could be a micro switch.
Very surprised nobody has come in on this with the right answer.
Not in a passat for a few years and never had the problem myself.
Come on peep's help out on this one.

Not sure on your problem sory.
But it could be down to lack of use did you try some lubricant in the lock.
