Have you changed tires? What about air filter? Tire pressure? Wheel bearings? Stuck caliper? Stuck hand brake? I think I run out of ideas. Krzys PS One more: different oil?

| So if there is a Passat that did have some sludge issues at 45k miles and the dealer found oil output was low and replaced the oil pump, assuming from here on out all future oil changes will be done in a timely manner with appropriate synthetic oil, any reason to be concerned about the engine's future? | |

Replying to: tomj2 (Jul 15, 2009 6:01 am) BTW, the web is full of stories where one would have hoped that "VW would have picked them up. Personally, I think they rely too heavily on the "there's MIL, so all must be perfect" approach to troubleshooting.
