    Help me upgrade my 2015 Passat TDI SEL Premium from a slow RNS 510 to a Pioneer

    Just to update anyone following, I ordered the VWA13 and A501 with low expectations due to very mixed reviews. First day I played with it for a couple of hours trying to dial it in. Backup cam actually works fast before the system even boots up. Wireless Android Auto connects fast. Sound only...

    Help me upgrade my 2015 Passat TDI SEL Premium from a slow RNS 510 to a Pioneer

    I have the same car as you and I'm also looking for a quality but not bank breaking upgrade. All steering buttons and factory backup camera work good on your Eonon? I checked their site and they recommended the VWA13 model, is that what you have? How's the brightness and glare in daylight? Does...

    San Diego Shop

    Euro Auto Service in Escondido. They replaced my DSG flywheel and some other parts. I know several others that took their diesels there. Including a 3.0 TDI that the dealer couldn't figure out, but euro auto service did.

    Real World MPG with DSG

    I wish I got upper 40s lol... That's the only thing I miss from the ALH. BRM DSG sold this year was around 37 I think. CBEA DSG is terribly disappointing at 32.:cautious: At the end of the day I prefer the quieter freeway driving over a few more MPGs and I'm happy with 40.

    2013 Passat Driver's Side Heat blend door servo replacement

    I haven't yet checked the motors moving, will need to research where to see that in vcds. Cabin filter is ok, not sure about the rest. Previous owner also had the compressor "rebuilt".

    2013 Passat Driver's Side Heat blend door servo replacement

    Hi all, mine is a 15 SEL, previous owner had the driver's side fixed based on paperwork, my problem is that after running the ac for a while, the flaps decide to close flow to the center dash and I don't know why. I found 2 ways to make them move to open again, either crank up the fan to max, or...

    2015 VW Jetta TDI CVCA - error codes, limp mode

    I had it towed to the dealer for warranty fix. The service rep said these are easy to break if somebody just leans on that area. Maybe it's easier to make that mistake since the sensor is covered up. I know someone at Audi who also broke one recently, so now 2 unrelated sources say the same...

    2015 VW Jetta TDI CVCA - error codes, limp mode

    Was this lack of bleeding theory ever confirmed? I'm having the same problem. After timing belt and DSG service this past week, picked up my 2015 Passat from a VW "specialist", check engine light after 3 miles of driving, then about 12 miles later my street is uphill, I lost power and the glow...

    Best dealership in Socal?

    I can only comment on mossy Escondido. A few years ago they replaced the intake manifold on my 09 wagon and believe it or not, also my entire DSG somehow using the TDI warranty. Drove the car over 20k since those, no problems with these repairs. Also just happened to drop off my 15 Passat for...

    Buying TDI with wrong oil used?

    On the other hand, if I don't know who did those major service items, who knows if the job was done well?.. My current 09 wagon was due for everything when I bought it for $4k with a brand new dpf (all the mods were done the day before purchasing), then I had a trustworthy friend do the belt and...

    Buying TDI with wrong oil used?

    Thanks, that's a '14 SE, I'm looking for '15 SEL. The newer engine gets better fuel economy and the taller 6th gear spins less and there's a longer emissions warranty if my research is correct.
