Would love to hear from anybody running with Nokian WR G-3's on their Passat TDI's? Would love to hear from people who are running these? Putting them on as winter tires and trashing the OEM Hankooks with 28,000 on them. I think I might run these as all season tires. All thoughts, opinions and...

What a totally unacceptable answer DO NOT ACCEPT THAT ANSWER. I love when people in the service industry assault my intelligence with a stupid answer. Answers like that deserve no civility on your part when you reply. As an aside 4 of us once went to an Outback Steakhouse and ordered a round of...

That BMW X Drive Diesel How well would a 6'4" 275 man fit in that model. Have you been in one? I would really like to get one. My old Passat was 4 Motion. Can;t believe it is now a step up to $60k for all wheel diesel to the Audi? Madness, Dr. Raoul Duke "A Legend in his own mind":)

Dr Duke DOES need your help Sorry Guys: I am just coming off what was basically a 3 week road trip and back home just in time for a full knee replacement on January 5th. Here's my issue - EVERYBODY sounds wonderful on my bluetooth - the problem is apparently I either cut in or out or can...

I have a 2013 Passat TDI and my Bluetooth flat out sucks. Anybody heard of they have fixed the problems on the 2015 models? TIA, Dr. Raoul Duke "Still Crazy after all these years"

anybody know what the recommended pressure in psi for front and back tires on the dreaded Nokian' is???

Shazbad!!!! Didn't work for me??? Any thoughts on what I could have done wrong? Maybe the door lock button or something???

I remember the sales guy showing me and ALL I wanted to do at that point was get off the lot and drive it

and a door button opening all the windows on a 90 degree day? I am brain dead today (Monday) and it's approaching 90 degrees. Help!!!! Apologies for all the experienced people who had to slug through this lame post. Regards, Dr. Raoul Duke "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a...

So what I am seeing here is that I have to delete contacts from both phones and then make sure I have removed all duplications and dead numbers from both phones and then re-install my personal phone (which is hardly ever with me)and let it add my business contacts from the phone each time I get...

Loki: I have 2 phones - one business, the other personal. The numbers I want to erase are personal ones and they come up even when the phone is NOT in the vehicle so they have to be stored somewhere?

Can't seem to find this info anywhere in all the documentation I got when I purchased the car? How do I go about removing numbers from my Bluetooth system on a 2013 Passat? Regards, Dr. Raoul Duke "A few sandwiches shy of a picnic"

Well guys it looks like from all this quality collective input I would be a buffoon not to at least investigate the snow tire route first. My Passat came with the much despised Hankooks to begin with and I figure by next November they will have over 22,000 miles on them and be total rubbish by...

Most have awaken extra stupid today - what is MB????

Got to tell you as much as I love my new diesel Passat I miss my 4-Motion. When it is icy I barely make it up the driveway. Many times I have to back up and take a running start and I am not talking about a lot of ice or a long driveway. Now I am trying to find a diesel with 4 wheel drivel and...

Anybody have any inkling of what is coming down the road. Are we EVER going to see 4 Motion again in a Passat or any of the other VW's other than possibly an SUV? Better headlights? Improved Bluetooth/Camera???????????? What does the future hold purportedly. Dr. Raoul Duke "One Mans Ceiling...

Friend of mine coming back from a wedding in Northern Minnesota at -26 in his diesel Chevy truck stopped at a motel that had 'plug in' facilities for his use. Asked me if I could plug in my Passat? Duh???? Can I? If so how? What do I need? Thanks in advance, Dr. Raoul Duke "Not the sharpest...

Can call out and receive calls but CAN'T hear each other

Travelling with limited internet access and no time for ponderous archives search and my bluetooth on my 2013 Passat has just crapped out on me. Tried re-installing it several times with same result. It will dial and receive call but I can hear them and they can hear me. One thing that is...

It looks like my 20013 Passat has a setting for heat on the outside mirrors BUT that said their is no way to adjust the knob so that it points to that setting. Anybody out there get what I am saying or am I just a crazy old man:confused: Is there a heat setting for the outside mirrors? (Good...
