Actually very very simple. I have a couple of PDF guides if you want them. Cost me €58 from the dealers, and maybe 2 hours time.
That would be brilliant mate thank you!

Pm me your email and i'll throw them you

Long Coding Central Electronics

Hi all, after successfully retrofitting and coding auto-hold I decided to activate other features in the coding of my B6. Only problem is I have VAS (mate's Skoda dealer level software) and has none of the check boxes for bytes and bits or anything so I'm working blind. Trying to do coming home ligh...

Re: Project Limousine - Irish B6 Passat

Looks like a good base plus you get to roll white plates! :D If it was mine this is what id do: - Some genuine fitted mats! - Smoked or clear front indies - New rims (19" are a must on the B6 imo) - Coilovers - Back box or Cat back - Light window tints - Remove rear fog light and replace with ...

Bought to replace my old Project Variant (sadly missed), MK3 Golf too small and uncomfortable for me now. Car ha...

Re: 130 TDI 4Motion/Highline

Looked and found out that Sport is a higher spec than Highline. Way to go Volkswagen confusing people with nomenclature. But most don't have chrome...

130 TDI 4Motion/Highline

Hi everybody, stuck up a wanted ad in the FS section for a 4Mo or Highline Passat. Got a few thoughts and questions that I'm going to put to the UKP boffins. Wednesday saw the untimely demise of my 90BHP b5/b5.5 Dr. Franksenssat's monster estate car. Rather heavy rear end shunt leads me to looking f...

Re: my passat b5.25 project !!!

i will do, project is far from complete. is my daily driver so is taking shape one step at a time. will get the aero wipers eventually, when i can find a set. late b5.5 passats breaking here are rarer than hens teeth. to find any b5.5 breaking means probably a hundred mile drive.

but its worth it!
