Volkswagen Passat parts reviews

It's fixed I have heat thanks to all yous, I flushed the heater core both ways low and behold I have heat.

I've used AMSOIL since 1977....in everything from to name a few, my 83 GTi, 88 Scirocco, 04 R32 and now the wife's 06 Passat 3.6L as well as my 04 Volvo S60R and have never had an issue. I use the 5w40 in the Passat and 0w30 in my Volvo.

the car seems to run really good at the .028 with the bosch plugs

OEM W8 shocks (yes, they work, and have for at least 50k so far and not blown )

Last week Replaced Steering Column. VW picked up parts cost as "goodwill" effort. My cost $493.50.

I had this happen over a year ago-under warranty luckily. Took 2 weeks and a VW engineer to fix. They replaced the steering column and shipped my old one back to Germany. The car would start and then immediately shut off and give me the steering lock malfunction error.

I decided to flush the engine any way first before I started the job and pulled the engine out. I put two bottles of car lube engine flush in the oil because of the amount of oil it holds (8.5l) and left the car ticking over for 45 min's wile I cleaned it. I took the car up on the ramp and drained engine oil and filter. Wow the oil come out black like a diesel. I decided to put new oil and filter in and run the car. I added Lucas additive run it up. I erased the fault code and took the car for a run. Omg the difference the car was like a rocket and no fault codes. Its been 7 days now and its like a different car.

The guy came out and did a fine job installing the new windshield - Pilkington glass.

Not much noise, but have seen an uneven wear pattern, even with periodic tire rotation. For my Passat, at least, the rear tire position begins to create a "finned edge" to the shoulders of the tire.

Meyle are good? My brother in law had a pretty bad experience with those from ecstuning with his parents' B5 Passat..they wore out faster than the OEM tie-rods.
