#219 of 291 HUGE HUGE HUGEE HUGE HUGGGEEEEEEEE PROBLEM by sebby27 Jun 26, 2008 (10:47 am)
I have a 98 1.8T Passat   My friend and I installed a K&N air intake yesterday and we unplugged the negative terminal battery because we tought we needed too... (still dont know if we had too but he had to for his 96 audi A4 and it turned out fine)   we connected the intake perfectly but then went to go start the car and it turns on and acts like it stalls (its tiptronic). after 30 seconds the car shuts off. i drove it down my street starting it every 30 seconds but it drives really bad and shakes the entire time we drive it and the battery and check engine lights are on and the radio is in safe mode and has the number 1000.    Now i dont know the code... and i dont have the sound system book either because i got the car used and it just simply never came with 1....   what do i do?!?!?   that car is my life Replies to this message: shipo (Jun 26, 2008 11:26 am)

#224 of 291 VW PASSAT 2000, wing mirror problem: by captain_jack Jul 03, 2008 (1:12 pm)
Hi, I have contacted you previously and no doubt you saved my loads of cash by letting me know how to change the dash light bulbs in my vw passat.   I have a bit of a problem, well a major one in this case. I have a VW PASSAT 2000 (W reg). and all of a sudden the wing mirrors have got a problem. when i twist the little joystick on the driver side to the left wing mirror position i can adjust the wing mirror fine. but when i do the same for the right wing mirror, the left wing mirror also adjusts. i dont know why this is happening. I opened the little joystick holder: removed it from its fitting in the car and cleaned it, checked it but the problems still there. the clips & pins are all fine. i assume its a fuse problem or something. and didnt know what else to do. I would be very grateful if you could help me out with this problem. as the last time i needed help you sent me a site with pictures showing me what to do. very helpful. i hope you will not disapoint me this time either. Sorry, didnt know how to get the posts up, last time i typed the problem in google and went to the page where i could type the problem. i saved your address but couldnt find the question posting page hense getting my problem to you this way. please do respond. Thanx Replies to this message: altair4 (Jul 03, 2008 5:42 pm)

Replying to: captain_jack (Jul 03, 2008 1:12 pm) It's not a "bug", it's a feature. In the US GLX model, the mirrors do that. They're supposed to, IIRC. It's a system by which they are coordinated so that when another driver adjusts the mirrors, they move in sync.   Check your owner's manual on setting them individually. I have a GLS model (my mirrors don't do anything fancy), so I can't help you any more than this.

Replying to: fox7190 (Jun 09, 2008 7:20 am) We replaced the hardware and the windows would not operate properly all the windows stopped working the sunroof,radio,ABS what the beep is going on. Checked all the fuses with a FLUKE meter the next time I will visually check every fuse. Replies to this message: altair4 (Jul 07, 2008 2:50 am)

Replying to: regggie (Jul 06, 2008 6:56 pm) You'll need to post more info to get a reasonable response. What hardware did you replace?
#228 of 291 A/C Trouble by melohello Jul 17, 2008 (9:04 am)
I have an 06 Passat and as I reached the city limits, I was passing another vehicle and all of sudden my inside cabin goes humid and no cool air is coming out. I freaked a bit, rolled my windows down and went home. An hour or so later, I leave home to go to the store and to see if its working, I turn my a/c on and its working again, so I was like OK, it's working. When I leave for work the next morning, no cool air, and thus, I have gone for 3 days without a/c in my car and I live in south Mississippi and we're in the middle of a hot summer...YIKES!   My hubby took the car to two mechanics in town, in order to avoid taking it to the dealership. The first put it on the gauge and said that I was completely out of freon, then when he turned the vehicle on and had it connected to the gauge it read that I did have freon so he speculated that it could be an electrical problem. He then took it to a second location and they claimed that I had freon in it, but it seems that my compressor continues to run even after the car has been cut off. I'm not sure, but I think they also told him that the compressor continues to run while the car is on and never shuts off. I know my a/c still blows out air, but none of its cool.   How is this an electrical issue? What could be the possible problems? Has anyone else had this trouble?
