Soldering the brake pad wear sensor - can anyone in Adelaide do this?
I posted this thread not long ago re my torn brake pad wear sensor and disabling the warning lamp. It looks like soldering it is the easiest/cheapest solution. It definitely doesn't seem too hard, but I also don't wanna mess up so as I haven't done anything like that and i'm wondering if anyone around...

Do any of you suffer excessive wear on the inside of the rear tyres?

Has anyone adjusted theirs?

How to check timing chain wear 2.0 FSI
Hi all,
I've been noticing what can only be described as a rasping sound from my 2.0 FSI N/A manual Jetta. It seems more common when the engine is hot, and it varies with engine RPM. Strangely it's definitely audible in the cabin, but when you open the engine bay it is less noticeable -...

Brake Pad Wear Sensor
Does anyone know if the B8 passat is fitted with brake pad wear sensors? Mine is a 2017 206TSI wagon. Last service report indicated that brake pads/rotors may need to be replaced before next scheduled service. So far no indications on the dash.

Brake Pad Wear Sensor
Hi Guys,
On a very wet day at some traffic lights, my ABS/ESP light came on after traction control kicked in momentarily when it slipped in the moistness. I'm just getting to it now and have the front wheels off the car.
On the front right the sensor looks fine. The tie rod...

Passat V6 FSi Highline - Front left steering/suspension issue
Hi All,
The better half has clipped a gutter or two and VW had advised around 700 bucks to supply and fit parts for the I believe lower control arm bushes. This in turn has made both front tyres wear on the inner edge very badly, so I am up for two new tyres as well.
Any...Last edited by CraigB; 07-08-2019, 01:39 PM.

Wear on Front Strut Top Mount
Been chasing down an annoying noise from the front suspension and took the front strut out today. It was replaced about 10,000kms ago by a Panel beater after an accident, so not a dealer repair. Sound started about 5,000kms ago and is a rattling on light rough surfaces. On big bumps and smooth roads,...
