Re: sunroof drains?

Re: Locking problem on B3 Estate

this car has central vaccum operated locking?
great idea about opening the rear door on the same side and try to undo the number 3 Philips screw.
this is the only place vw used left hand thread parts.

Re: brake booster mounting braket

I was looking at those same link on vagcat.

so from this I can conclude and since starting this thread I have found a non abs car in England with the non abs parts.
\the bolt pattern and orientation were the brake master bolts to the brake servo are 90 degrees rotated from each other.

Re: Is there an electric speedo on the B3 passat with mech o

I am not sure I follow the conversation but the original poster wants to use a magnetic pick sensor inside the tranny and a mechanical cable attached ot the pick up to drive a speedo cluster?
not that I know from a mk2 or Passat era platform.

Re: how hard is it to convert a manual to an automatic?

you know? here in Canada and usa; we drivew on the opposite side of the road; but; now this attempt of yours means we also go the opposite way when it comes to driveline swaps.... :-o

most people here go from autotragic to manual swaps. not the other way round.. :-?

Re: That White B3 Passat...B3 TYP Codename "Moo"

I HAVE HAD 5 OR 6 PASSATS BY NOW. NEVER DID I HAVE THAT BATTERY HOLD DOWN BOLT SNAP ON ME.
MAYBE IT HAS TO DO WITH ME HAVING 3 CARS ON THE DRIVEWAY AT ALL TIMES WITH NO LICENSE PLATES AND ONLY 1 BATTERY FOR THEM TO SHARE.
SO I USE AND REUSE THAT BOLT LIKE 10 TIMES A MONTH... :D

Re: B4 vr6 estate "KATARINKA"

usually i dislike the b4 platform in general; but this wagon is making me rethink that.

i would leave it at this ride height.

Re: Brake problem, couldn't find solution on here...

what is a brake pressure regulator?
the vaccun assit on the firewall?
or the rear axle brake proportioning valve?

Re: That White B3 Passat...B3 TYP Codename "Moo"

cool neat trick about that wiper motor cover.
I never knew such thing existed.
here in Canada and usa they put a piece that covers the motor from the base of the windshield area ot the lip on the firewall.
I like this motor cover better.
anyone have a spare to sale me? :-c
