Pros: OEM quality

Tires Continental
At 70K miles I went with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S4 tires. That was about 7,000 miles ago and they are by far the best tires I have had on this car.
Pros: best tires I have had
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Mileage: 7000 km
I've had Continental DWS06+ tires on my Passat for about 10,00 miles. Good all season tires, even light snow. Good tread wear, so far. Quiet. I'm happy.
Pros: Good all season tires
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Mileage: 10000 km
eu pe passat b6 am michelin crossclimate 2 all season iar tatal meu tot pe b6 are cauciucuri de iarna, nu stiu marca. nu am observat diferen\u021ba
Pros: nu am observat diferenta
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat B6
Ayyyy something to check ik it’s two different vehicles but my 2012 Passat ended up doing the same thing and one mechanic told me a new engine but thankfully he send me to euro shop for a second opinion and wala what I thought the car was toasted it was a camshaft position sensor
Pros: fixed with sensor replacement
Cons: misdiagnosed engine failure
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Update: it was just the battery, everything works fine after replacement and coding/adaptation. No error codes. Thanks everyone
Pros: everything works fine
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Tbf the b6 passat will probably rust away just by existing before the engine gives up. That being said, 1.4tsi engine is not great not terrible. Many problems with them are caused by lack of maintenance and by cheap oil filters.
Cons: problems with cheap oil filters
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat B6
I took the starter out, it looked OK. Removing the solenoid connector was really difficult since the plastic piece that you push to disengage it had disintegrated with time/heat. No 12V on the solenoid terminal when I pressed start.
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat B7
Mileage: 220000 km
My first car was a Volkswagen Passat. I was on a budget and got a good deal on a really nice car. It was a dream to ride, except when everything kept going wrong. I went through multiple ignition coils, the car caught fire (bad coil, again) and had thousands in damage. Beyond that, getting tires balanced wasn\u2019t a simple job. Everywhere needed to special order shims from Germany because that\u2019s the only way a Volkswagen tire could be balanced.
Pros: dream to ride, good deal
Cons: car caught fire, expensive maintenance
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
B5 Passat (and Audi A4, same gen), 1.8T.
Filter - a big-ass 1.5 liter spin-on - mounted at an angle, directly above the front subframe.
Remove from top, after relocating the coolant tank.
Strategically use absorbent mat (floor diaper) to contain the inevitable spill.
Pros: mounted at an angle
Cons: inevitable spill
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat B5
