- 96 Passat Wagon TDI B4V Storm Gray 258k, 98 Jetta TDI 260k (retired for spare parts)
In the past week I have purchased this Storm Gray B4 Passat Wagon TDI. Paid $3k for the car. Last owner was the second owner and owned it for 15 years, from 40k to 260k. The car has been maintained very well from what I can tell. 260k on engine and many maintenance repairs have been done through out its life. I noticed it did the limp mode thing......except at all times. I has low power all the time. Hills it can barely make it up and you can barely get up to speed. It like limp mode but all the time. Needing some advise. Im in the process of changing the N75 valve once it arrives, also gonna check on the hose inside the ECU. I had the same issue on my 98 Jetta TDI.
