The engine management light has recently come on in my 2002 year 1.8T passat. Can anybody recommend any Software or OBD scanner which works with the 2002 passat. All diagnostics Software listed on Ebay only appear to cover models upto 2001. Any advice greatly appreciated, Sukhi.

Hi, The bottom hose on my 1985 Passat came off the rad connection (my fault for not securing it properly) with the result that all the freakin water drained out. I got about two miles in slow moving traffic with the revs slowly increasing and the engine starting to knock. Eventually I...

Okay, I know this topic has been covered before, but I'm trying to gather all the suggestions in ONE checklist of places to look for water leaks coming into a Jetta II. Have I missed anything ? - Drain holes in front of firewall on both sides, under the black plastic, check for blockages. -...

I just completed installing a rebuilt cylinder head, timing belt, and tensioner, in my 78 VW Rabbit Diesel. The engine turns over, but will not start. It looks like a fuel delivery problem because there is no smoke, or fuel smell. According to the Bentley manual, the fuel system is self...

Hi: Recently I required the radio code for my Jetta radio after it went into SAFE mode. Here are the prices that a few dealerships quoted me: Agincourt VW - $50 + tax Don Valley VW - $30 + tax Orangeville VW - $25 + tax

A couple (well, three actually) questions regarding radio installation in an '85 Jetta: First, I currently have a VW "Premium Audio" from I think a '92 or so installed. It works fine and fits, but just doesn't "look" right - I would've expected the front of the radio to be maybe flush with the...

Hello all, About a week ago my daughter was driving our 2000 Jetta that has the VR6 engine (about 50k miles). The serpentine belt broke/came off. She saw a battery warning lamp come on but did not see the temp guage move past the mid range. The car was towed and the belt replaced along with the...

I wrote a few weeks ago about my 99 Passat not starting, I changed the sparkplugs and it ran good for a few weeks. Went today to start it, exact same thing, started for 5 seconds, then turned off and can't get it started again, smells like fuel around the engine again so I take out the plugs and...

2000 Passat starting to make clunking noises when over irregular road surfaces and makes a sound (which can be felt) like cracking knuckles upon taking off from a stop (manual trans). Also can feel a flutter when traveling at highway speeds if the steering wheel is turned to the right just a little...

Owned the car since new. I was never impressed by the automatic climate control system, but it did the job. It does look nice too. However, as time's gone by, it is starting to get pretty temperamental. I try to defend the thing to my wife (she's the primary driver) but she's about had it with the...

I am driving a 1992 Diesel Golf and have often wondered why my fuel consumption is worse than the 1985 I drove previously (~10%). It finally dawned on me that it must be in the tranmission gear ratios. I compared the transmission codes and found that they are different. However, the information...

I just got a brand new 2007 VW Beetle and I have no idea how to put on the license plate. There's two holes that don't match up with the plate holes and the car came with a black plastic thing but I don't know how to install it either. Any help??

When car is started it does not sound like the fuel distribution system is running. If memory serves me, you can hear it humming. Thoughts? Thanks,

What do I have to do to convert my 1985 Passat to unleaded now that LRP is finally disappearing from all but a few outlets in the UK? Any and all advice would be welcome. Thanks. -- RD Message posted via http://www.carkb.com

In a second of carelessness, I lost one of the remote door openers for my '98 Passat. I still have the second remote control, but I would like to ensure that whoever finds the lost remote can't unlock my car. I did a manual reset to the second remote control to change its code. But will that...
