    DEF usage on 2015 Passat

    If I can I buy my DEF at a truckstop at a DEF pump in bulk. Bring your own clean container. Way cheaper than those prepackaged 2.5 gal containers.

    Just bought a 2013 Passat tdi

    You may be right oilhammer, but then my former car was a 2002 Jetta TDI with the automatic tranny which was supposed to be the worst tranny ever. I never had a problem with it. I believe it also depends on the drivers driving habits or driving style. If you beat the crap out of a vehicle...

    Just bought a 2013 Passat tdi

    A few things, you are posting in the "Ontario" forum ! Also a new engine at less than 100k ? These problems on this car would indicate some neglect on the previous owners part or abusive usage. !!! My car is a 2015 and I have none of those part failures at under 100k.

    Cold start 2015 TDI Passat

    The manual does not tell me much for the KESSY system, that's why I am hoping that someone can tell me. As I said I have never ever had my car in COLD weather ! Maybe I should have stated "Automatic transmission and KESSY" system. In other words NO ignition key ! This is what the manual says...

    I have never been in Ontario in the winter with my car and would like some information on starting my car in the cold. Due to health reasons I cannot travel anymore. My former 2002 Jetta TDI I turned the key and waited for the glow-plug light to go off and then started the engine. My Passat TDI...

    VCDS HEX-V2 with a tablet just as good as HEX-NET?

    I use a HEX-V2 together with a cheap NETBOOK. It is ONLY for the VCDS and nothing else so is plenty fast enough. Absolutely no other programs other than WINDOWS on the Netbook.

    2012 JSW can I remove the muffler

    As Oilhammer says. I did it to my then 2002 Jetta. All it did was to cause an annoying droning inside the cabin and especially for rear seat passengers. To eliminate that I ended up having a straight through (Hollywood) muffler installed.
