UKPassats

What Gaz posted ! ^^^ :-bd Did this myself a few months back instead of getting a new flexi welded to the existing cat. Easy to do, you'll need a new centre to front pipe, as the orginal cat is straight through to the exhaust leading to the back box (also a new clamp). Easy to do. Passed MOT with ou...

You can fit hid bulbs with the standard clips without having to modify anything. Got these so did not have to cut. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/H7-METAL-HID-HEADLIGHT-CONVERSION-KIT-BULB-HOLDERS-CLIPS-VAUXHALL-VECTRA-C-ASTRA-/292157253177?hash=item4405ede639 Almost impossible to fit, going in to try t...

I suspect the default answer is - get it scanned. "Garage" is as vague as it comes.

Did you not get the water pump done when the cambelt was done?

Yup use it all the time, where ever possible. Easily adjusted if traffic changes. As above, just look far enough ahead and try to anticipate other road users.

Sorted. Bad earths behind drivers kick panel.

CAnt see how changing the actuator on the drivers door is going to help your boot issue?

You may need longer extensions on the passat, or multiples of. Obviously the plenum is also a drain chamber hence sheltered and higher up :) Ive always found it hassle to fit ballasts and keep them accessible near headlights on B5 and B5.5 hence where the idea originated. Easy on the Passenger side...

Hi all, After having some starting issues, i decided to change the ignition switch today. Got it fitted and connected the battery back up. First thing i noticed was the rear wiper was going, which doesnt seem unusual, especially when the stalk was in the on position... however.... the key wasnt in t...

Simple, google, or tldr and just be a muppet.

whats tldr?

Oh i get it, you're just being an asshole. NOt just to me either, you've being the same responding to other people too.

problem was, getting a second hand one that was intact. Second hand ones were as much as they were new and over teh years the plastic will have become brittle.

Cheers fellas, will take a look.

Map out later car eml or run around with eml .

Is the remap needed for ALL cars, or just ones that are 2004 and 2005 cars? Mines a 03.

What do you do with the connection on...

Well got one of them that i ordered - got it fitted no probs. Still waiting for the other to arrive (ordered 2) However, the mechanic who ordered them for me ordered 2, 2 arrived broken.. returned. Ordered another 2, 1 fine the other broken lol.. .so thats 3 of 4 broken - so there maybe a shortage o...

Resealed the pollen filter housing for the second time on both mine and the wifes Passat... absolutely blathered the gutter sealant on Tired of water getting in both cars! Tested it and it held out the water.. will keep an eye on it.

21 pound odd plus vat. Works out the same as a second hand one.

Nice. Second hand ones people are wanting 25 quid.

Does anyone know if the trim that runs along the bottom of the windscreen and has the wiper spindles going through it, is available from the dealers?


If so anyone got the part number and possible price.

Does the handle on the boot lid actually work. I had an issue and it was due to the handle (which is just hinged metal that presses a microswitch) was corroded closed and constantly pressing the microswitch.

I've done it when replacing the headlights. As above ensure they're fully extended to begin with (normal level). THey're a ball join on the end which hooks to the housing from the bottom, so you have to try tilt the motor downwards to release it. It can be a bit of a oh fiddlesticks!.
