Just purchased an '05 Passat w/ 127k miles. Did not know of any of the Balance Shaft problems until after purchase. Mine does not appear to have the overwhelming chain clatter. CarFax shows me nothing on whether it was replaced/upgraded. Is there an easy way to tell?
Also just found out that the dealer had the oil changed at the lube shop with regular 5w30. It has been 100 miles since the change. Dealer says he does all his oil changes there and it should not be a problem. I think I need to do an immediate oil change. I'll bet they didn't change the filter either.
Thanks
