Re: B6 CC rear indicator swap for chrome?
I've looked and cannot find any 10W indicator bulbs silver or orange? I always thought they were 21W?

Re: What did you do to your Passat today?
Picked my new to me B6 a week ago, (sold my B5.5 a couple of years back and been desperate to get another passat) and finally got chance to give it a good wash.

Re: Leaking water from drivers side
Check inside the engine bay there to see if there is any staining near the bottom corner of the radiator on the drivers side, that's where mine was leaking from.
I had a new radiator fitted and the coolant all changed and no more leaks

Re: black rat stickers
Black rats are the nick name for the old met traffic police. It comes from the motorcycle riders who used to look like drowned rats in the wet in the old style black leather waterproofs. (also rats eat their own and they had a reputation for knocking off other bobbies). They used to be to let traffi...

Re: Best Smart Phone Query?
I've got the Galaxy S2, it has been pretty good. However when I first had it the battery life did not seem very good, however since a software upgrade it has been a hell of a lot better.
