Re: Intermittant Wipe

Rear view mirror seems to be a dimmed type.

Dont know if windscreen has been changed, but it does have a chip in it.

Only had car a week or so!

Intermittant Wipe

This is VERY intermittant! seems to have a mind of its own! Have played with the adjuster on the stalk but makes no difference! I get 2 wipes that are in sequence then it goes for ages without doing anything. Could it be a dodgy relay? Or maybe a stalk problem? My car is a W reg 1.8t Sport. Is there...

Re: Dodge temp guage!

I had this problem and changed the temp sensor.

Now it shows cold all the time! Most it gets up to is half way between 0 and 90.

Any ideas?

Wind Noise

Only had my Passat a week and on Mway I get a lot of whistling noises. Is this normal (used to a noisy Golf!) or should I be thinking about door rubbers etc?

Hello

Just got myself a Passat so thought I had better find out about it! I have a Mk3 Golf which is an ongoing project so bought this Passat as a daily. Its a W reg 1.8t Sport. That all I know so please direct me where to look for info as I dont even know if its a Mk 5 or what? Engine code would be nice ...
