Re: My B5

Billy my Son-in-law has fitted those wheels (BK299) in chrome but 18" dia to his Passat.
They are 17's on the Golf.
Wanted something different for my Passat and liked those RS8 reps the best.

Re: what spark plugs

Where are the plugs? Under the coil packs? So you have to take off the coilpacks (4 bolts each)?

Re: This is REALLY annoying! (service reminder)

I thought there would be but why so far in advance? 500 miles would be acceptable.

This is REALLY annoying! (service reminder)

Every time I switch on I get a loud beeeeep and a message saying service in 2000 miles!

I have to put up with this for 2000 miles of driving? There must be a way of stopping this surely!

Re: Wind Noise

After 2 weeks of driving the car I am now thinking this noise could be the ventilation system.
