Since new, my 2007 Passat has creaked when driving slowly over smooth but undulating surfaces. The creaks come from the body panels (not the dash) and not just from a single source. The dealer at first said (as they do) that there was no fault, but VW Australia have apparently now issued a...

Hi, I've had the head skimmed on my 1985 VW Passat 1800CL. Since doing that I've noticed that the two engine timing marks, one on the fan belt pully and the other on the intermediate camshaft sprocket, which should be aligned with each other cannot be because reducing the head has moved the main...

Would someone please tell me where the fuel filter is on a 2000 Jetta-gas engine. Thanks, Steve

This is a continuation from an earlier post. BIG thanks to those of you who posted help. 90 Golf 1.8 8v 144,000 miles. OK, I got it started and it runs, but the oil light is flashing. I have recently replaced the switch (sensor) on the side of the motor. The oil level is fine, maybe a little...

Just took possesion of a 2009 Tiguan and have found that none of my chargers (Garmin Nuvi, iPhone) work in any of the outlets. Are the outlets disabled by default and need to be activated by the dealer? Or are the outlets non standard and need some type of adapter to get the chargers to make...

I was hoping you guys could offer your opinions on this car a friend is interested in. As stated in the title it's a 1997 Golf Jazz with 93,300 miles, 5-speed manual. Known problem is that the power locks don't work. Has had the timing belt and starter replaced. The exterior is in great shape....

In the USA, does the Passat (gas) come with a DSG transmission or does VW call it buy another name? On the VW web site, the transmission in a Passat is call "AQ Transmission". I see that Audi calls the DSG transmission "S-Tronic". How can I be sure I am getting a DSG transmission in a VW product?

I realize this is going against all current Netiquette ;-) but I thought I'd tell you what it was. It was the oxygen sensor *relay*. At least after about 150 miles since it was changed, and the car running just great, I am willing to take a gamble and say that they finally got it right this...

After driving our '08 City Jetta for a while, the air conditioning makes a vibrating groaning noise when turned off. If I have the recirc ON it doesn't do it, recirc OFF it doesn't. Doesn't seem to do it while driving down the road, only when I'm stopped. Happens everytime I turn the air...

Here's the story: 90 Golf 1.8 8v 140,000 miles. The car died on the freeway and left me stranded. I got it towed home and: I replaced the oil pressure switch (sensor) on the side of the motor because it was leaking. Also, the day before the car died, I noticed a rattle under the car which I...

This time I know where it is, and what it is that's leaking. Need help either finding the entire OEM assembly, OR, what I need to get to make some fascsimile of it. Again, 88 Fox Wagon GL, 1.8L CIS-E. The culprit is the hose assembly that goes from the fuel filter to the steel line under the car...
