UKPassats

Most passats with mudflaps, the mudflaps scrape at certain times as the mudflaps sit quite low to the ground, if its the sport model the car sits 30mm lower anyway.

When ur slammed on coilovers and ur floor , anti rollbar and sump hit the floor, thats when you have to worry

Does anyone know if you can get them from the stealers? I've got a feeling I left it in one of the bolts and forgot about it, think I got distracted by a phonecall or something. So basically I need a new one, if I can get one from VW that would be ideal, saves me wellying a socket onto the bolts to ...

I've had nothing but trouble with the passat, never been anything major, just little niggly faults but they wee me off no end. My last car was a Ford Focus y-reg 1.8 PETROL with 130,000 odd mile son it, and I never had 1 problem with it, and that was modded and it got absolutely hammered, and it sti...

Yeah diesel filter/fuel filter, same difference.

Quoted me

Went to a body shop on the way to the shop today just to get an idea as to how much it will cost to colour code bump strips on my B5. This guy came out, i told him what i want doing, straight away he replied- Nah, we don't do it. Too much of a pain in the bum :? I thought all right then, i asked hi...

Now then, my passat has been pissing me off for about 6 months with a judder problem when giving it some beans. I had the cv joints changed and it went away for a few weeks and then came back, so I thought they had went again. However they hadn't. I then thought the worst and that the dual mass flyw...

Why does no1 do the crystal lights for the Passats? Crystal lights look clean on bmw's, mk3 golfs etc. By crystal i mean the clear-coloured ones, not the rubbish white ones like what you see on corsa etc. I mean this style of light, if you get what I mean; http://www.bimmerboard.com/members/q/origin...

Is urs a TDI mate?
Just not sure if all passat cv's are the same

have a look in the advice bits at the top of each page,my money is on the m.a.f. sensor...reason being is they are a common part for failing on passats,and mine was the same symptoms,replaced m.a.f. and it was back to normal.......you can upgrade to a mercedes m.a.f sensor which is same sort of pri...

what i did with mine is i fitted some boots of a peugeot 306 gti6 over my joints. as the gti6 boots allow for a better turning circle...therefore less chance of splitting also cheaper coz its french :wink: They a straight fit like mate? Sick of seeing cv grease all over me newly refurbed alloys lol.

lol mine don't exist anymore

Cheers.

Might do it in two stages, just get the front bags first to help with speedbumps etc.

Not passats but close enough:

I was looking at gettin some 19' reps like.

5 weeks on and my passenger one has gone again, theyve got a 1 year warranty so should get a free one, but its such a ball ache.

It must have something to do with the car being on the deck.

I've only had the car since november and have already changed 5 cv joints.

Very OEM... do the original vents fit into it?

The original passat ones dont, not sure if the votex vents would fit. The spoiler is supplied with black mesh anyway.

So gonna be a little while longer before the bodywork gets all sorted. And yes before anyone says it, the wheels need ...

OK, So I have bought some 19 inch Mercedes Turbines on Ebay. Fronts are 8.5' wide Rears are 9.5' wide. But. They have HUGE tyres on. Fronts have 245/45/19 Rears have 275/40/19 What size would be best on a b5.5 passat? I was thinking 235/30/19 for fronts and 265/30/19 for the rears???? Not fussed if ...
