The new pup decided that our B7 Passat 118TSI key looked tasty and gave it a pretty good chew to the point where it would no longer fit in the key slot

We dismantled the key and were able to remove the battery printed circuit board which did not appear to have any damage.

We...

When I receive incoming phone calls in my 2016 Passat the caller can't hear me while I can hear them fine. It used to work fine.

What can I do to work out what the issue is?

A little bit concerned… Just had the big 120k service done on my Golf Alltrack TSI. Mechanic found a small amount of metal swarf in bottom of the filter when changing the transmission oil. The pieces are minuscule — maybe 1-2mm across, small metal filings. They’re quite fine to the point where...

Hi Guys,
I recently purchased 2007 GTI Polo and it’s a lot of fun to drive!
However last week I turned on the car and my air con suddenly stopped being cold after working wonderfully.
The heater works perfectly fine and the air comes fine out of the vents.
I thought it...

Hi all,

Not sure if this is the right place for this type of post, but I need some advice from the VW brains trust. I have a Golf 2008 GTI which has been great to me for the last 4 years, but am now thinking of selling and upgrading.

There are a couple of things needing to...

Hey all - drove around 7 hours from home over the long weekend in my 2010 t5.1 transporter and made it to destination fine. Shortly after an extra highway stint the engine light came on.

Luckily my mate had his scanner and we got the code P0401 EGR insufficient flow A.
Van has done...

Hi

I've just searched up on this and have a few leads, but thought I'd post my specific situation anyway because it's not exactly the same as others I've found.

My '08 Passat wagon with the 125kw TDI engine has just hit 150,000km and has been brilliant. Recently it developed...

Hey guys
Hoping someone may be able to help

My keyfob for my alltrak has suddenly stopped working…but here’s the rub..only the unlock doesn’t work, all other functions still operate. I was thinking that would mean it’s unlikely a battery issue?
It was literally...

Back story: heater core pipe was found to be leaking and was replaced at regional VW dealership. Pressure tested to be fine.

Picked up the car last week and noticed the heater no longer works. Still blows cold air just fine, but zero heat. The mrs also notices gurgling sounds when she...

If I want to find a thread in the Transporter forum only, not the whole site, is there a switch or whatever that can be included in the search?

Skodas & Golfs are fine in there place, but information about them is irrelevant to my needs.

I have a 05 transporter (375000km, auto) that was clunking between gears, (assuming valve box) now after a 'sharp breaking incedent ' where I initially lost power, upon gear changes the van will surge aggressively and then cut out. When trying to restart the van it can be hard but normal start up is...

I have a MK7 Golf 90TSI, when starting the car up or using the start stop, its not a smooth process, its like the engine has excessive front to rear movement but appears fine during normal driving conditions. Would this be the engine mounts? Any ideas or common faults in this area?

Thanks...

Hi all,

Just had a few questions regarding the clutches on t5.1 Transporters. Have a 2010 model sitting at 110ks.
Clutch is feeling fine, and mechanics generally unsure on the averaged KM range at which a replacement is required.

First question, at how many KM's in has...
