Whitest headlight bulbs?
Hi guys, I have a 2012 Passat Sport ESTATE, got white LED DRL & sidebulbs, currently running Osram nightbresker dipped beam bulbs which are great for visibility but look too yellow & bland, anyone else running white bulbs? Not interested in an aftermarket HID kit so that's not an option.

Re: Nervous about remapping 140bhp Passat (2011)
I remapped my b6 2.0 CR at 220k miles on original Turbo & was still going strong at 276k when I sold it, I had an economy map which was smooth, no issues at all.

Blue motion grill
Has anyone bought a bluemotion grill?
Can't find any on eBay, decided there is too much chrome on the front of the car so a bluemotion grill is a good way of removing two of the four chrome slats on the grill.
Will price one with TPS tomorrow.

Re: city breaks...which one ?
Kraków is awesome, very reasonable as well.
Would recommend Auschwitz & Birkenau, harrowing but certainly an experience.
Schindlers factory is worth a visit as are the shooting ranges.

Re: LED upgraded bulbs
Thanks mate, ordered these for the DRLs http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/361265659644?_mwBanner=1 Will these also work as LEDs for the reverse lights or are these a different fitment?

LED upgraded bulbs
Hi guys, just bought a b7 2.0 TDI Sport wagon, although I've just come from an 09 b6 Highline. Anyway, looking to upgrade the DRL, side light & puddle lights with LEDs, can anyone tell me what fitment these are so I can order them? Are Cree ones worth the extra over normal LED? Does anyone know ...

Re: Thermostat replacement on B6 170 BMR
Unsure if my CR thermostat is on its way out as it used to sit bang on 90 but seems to drop quite a bit - I know it's winter but can't remember it being like this before?

Re: B6 2.0 TDI CR Advice..
My 2009 CR is on 203k - never had a clutch or DMF til 190k but mine has been serviced every 10k.
No DPF issues so far but that depends how it's been driven as my mate had DPF failure on his 2007 PD at 100k.

Will DPF regen if EML is on?
2009 2.0 CR engine, on 168k so getting on a bit.
EML is on - codes point to a faulty O2 sensor, but can't put it in to get sorted until next week, will the DPF still regen as normal until then? I'm thinking not.

CR is known for failing actuators, mine would only seem to hit limp mode at 70mph or above.

Re: 2010 140bhp estage bluemotion - Bad MPG - What to check
Lorries mean stone chips!
My CR returns about 40-45mpg urban driving, longer motorway stints usually 55 - 60 mpg at 75mph.
Got 63mpg from Edinburgh to Glasgow sat at 60mph with cruise control on once but it was soo boring.
