Re: Intermittent light blue/grey exhaust smoke - 2009 Passat B6 Estate 20.L tdi Highline Plus
HI Mad Mitch, thank you for the reply and apologies for the slow response - was away with no internet all last week. Coincidentally, my commute changed in February of last year from 28 miles each way (mostly motorway) to 15 miles each way (entirely non-motorway) and this issue started around 3-4 mon...

Intermittent light blue/grey exhaust smoke - 2009 Passat B6 Estate 20.L tdi Highline Plus
Hi all, for a little while now, my car has had an intermittent exhaust smoke issue. For 5-6 days, the issue won't be there but then, for a day or two, it'll have light blue/grey smoke from the exhaust. Whilst it's 'smoky': o The exhaust smoke only appears after a few miles of each journey and is alw...

Re: 2009 B6 Estate Offside Rear Light outside
Thank you for the reply and info, maclee.
I've managed to source one - the listing included the word 'Estate' multiple times so fingers crossed, eh? It's arriving later today so not long to find out.
And my apologies - I presumed RHD would be the default for a UK Passats forum!

2009 B6 Estate Offside Rear Light outside
Hi,
is anyone able to confirm whether the offside rear outside light housing for the saloon is also suitable for the estate, please?
Cheers,
Kim

'59 plate B6 Passat 2.0L turbo estate
Hi all, recently had an issue with my car (see Subject for make and model) where it was, occasionally, laying down its own smoke screen (white smoke) from the exhaust. The frequency at which it happened diminished until it stopped happening and was replaced by very strong exhaust fumes odour in the ...

2009 Passat Highline audio issues
Hi, firstly, apologies if this is in the wrong place - mods, please feel free to move it if. Basically, when connected to a sandisk usb stick, the Zenec ZE-NC2010 unit in my Passat doesn't 'see' certain MP3 files that I've ripped the audio from Youtube and downloaded to the usb. Strangely, it is abl...

Re: Do I have Bluetooth?
Hi Paramedic,
My 2009 Highline Plus definitely has BT and I know this because my daughter connected her phone to it so we could listen to some music after my CD player broke but before I put all my music on USB.
Unhelpfully helpful of me, I know.

Re: P0299 turbo underboost
Hi Daz, I had a very similar problem with my 2009 Passat Estate recently http://www.ukpassats.co.uk/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=94763&sid=4f24ff3c597cea2a56ae0a4a9523dc04 and, after good advice on here and a lot of internet research, I plumped to change the turbo actuator first. (I had initial...

Re: 2009 (B6?) Passat Estate 2.0L tdi Highline Plus - lack of power, flashing warming coil lamp, limp mode
HI all,
happy to report that changing the actuator has fixed the problem.
This must've been affecting the car since I bought it last June because I don't remember it being as oomphy last year as it is now.
Thanks again for all your advice.

Re: 2009 (B6?) Passat Estate 2.0L tdi Highline Plus - lack of power, flashing warming coil lamp, limp mode
Thanks again for the replies gents. Car's just been on the tester and only gave one fault code - 00665 Turbo/Super Charger Underboost. Mobile Mechanic man Mark checked all the hoses and all ok. He then pulled the pipe going to what I highly suspect was the N75 valve and we took it for a drive for a ...

Re: 2009 (B6?) Passat Estate 2.0L tdi Highline Plus - lack of power, flashing warming coil lamp, limp mode
I'm beginning to understand the issues and the probable causes. Ok, when I say that I mean I'm an expert in recalling the names of bits of an engine and what goes wrong with them... without actually knowing what they do. I know diesels produce an unhelpful amount of soot; I know that vanes stick/sei...

Re: 2009 (B6?) Passat Estate 2.0L tdi Highline Plus - lack of power, flashing warming coil lamp, limp mode
Thanks both.
One thing - 'transverse engines' and 'oil pump drive'. These words mean nothing to me. When I said earlier 'I was going to give it a go', I meant I was going to get someone else to give it a go for me!

Thanks for the further replies both. Jasimog - mileage is around 122k.

Re: 2009 (B6?) Passat Estate 2.0L tdi Highline Plus - lack of power, flashing warming coil lamp, limp mode
Thanks, dude.
Meant to say in my initial post that I am getting no discernible drop in mpg or smoke of any colour from the exhaust. (Not sure if either of those facts would help in determining the problem.)

2009 (B6?) Passat Estate 2.0L tdi Highline Plus - lack of power, flashing warming coil lamp, limp mode
Hi all, first post here. My 2009 (B6?) Passat Estate 2.0L tdi Highline Plus has recently developed the apparently not-uncommon ‘lack of power, flashing warming coil lamp, limp mode’ problem when (a) going up hills and (b) after a stretch on a motorway at 70mph. It resets after ignition on/off but co...
