I am struggling to find this for my car. I would appreciate suggestions. For example the alarm siren is in the engine compartment. All the diagrams I have seen put it elsewhere. Thank you.

I appreciate your advice on this crasher. I also had the same advise for another reputable UK VW shop

I purchased an hour.. UK registered right hand drive Passat B5 Saloon Petrol 1.8T 20V 110KW 3B23J5 VIN: WVWZZZ3BZYP102936 I want the wiring diagram.. Where can I get that now ?

Hello Passat B5 1.8T Saloon 110Kw with original VW radio gamma working fine, bought the car recently. The previous owner does not have the radio code I dont intend to change the unit, however the reason for the question is that I want to do some work on the car for which I want to disconnect...

Where does the sludge come from in the 1.8T ? If you service the car every 10,000 miles at a good garage including changing the filter will it still build up ? What makes up the sludge constituents ? Passat engines (never had a 1.8T before) can go for 500,000 miles (the rest of the car falls...

Just rebuild them (lol) seriously, I just came across this incredible rebuild video on these engines

I have a replacement ,guaranteed tested CCM with precisely matching barcode, color code, and part number ready to swap the current believed to be faulty one I am aware that I will need to recode the replacement unit with the number of keys and match them, but the other coding I am concerned...

Thank you. That is a tough call for a car that has no symptoms as a preventative measure and not std recommended service item to cost justify then.

Bitcoins are a gamble these days highly volatile no massive gains

How many hours work to check Is this a recommended VW service item

Btw the question perhaps I should have asked is how would you know your car had a problem building up in this area

Thank you for pointing this out. I have just paid an excellent shop for the full service inc oil and filter. I am happy to spend money on this new acquisition within reason esp as you say they are rarer. It seems it needs care with its age. Spend money on items that preserve it or derisk onward...

APU 034974 it is.. UK right hand drive (The main engine is a Star Drive Warp Capable powered by the aux power unit) I just uploaded a full autoscan diag level 2 to support@ross-tech.com as per the wiki for Redir Fail label issue. If it helps the page from the service book is in the...

awesome. thank you Uwe I have now read the FAQ. (offtopic) While reading that I am reminded about label files. the autoscan of my B5 Passat 1.8T 20V saloon year 2000 3B chassis ross-tech appears to be saying it doesnt have a label file for the engine so I will try to help Ross-Tech create one...

Thank you and I agree, however I guess I could have made another thread which read "how to do a full code read of the car"; but having done that the questions in this thread would still be valid. If you happen to know the answer to the questions in this thread that would be gratefully appreciated.

Hello I am relatively new here, I am not sure where to post questions like this one, if the bar isnt the right place, apologies. In carefully reading the VCDS documentation I see it mentions that controllers have workshop codes. "identifies the WorkShopCode ( WSC) stored in the scan-tool that...

Thank you very much Uwe. I will look into color/index codes. I dont see I see that 3R printed on the unit in the photo, but it is reported by Ross-tech vcds as you have pointed out thank you. I didnt know that 3R was important until now. IN regard to trying the switch anyway, when previously I...

You may have missed in the op I am saying I have a replacement ccm and asking what is involved to change it over so there is no cost unless we are saying the ccm cant be swapped because the procedure is too complex ?

I have a replacement ccm, I was asking what the process to change it

Thank you for for your thoughts There are 23+15 = 38 wires connected to the ccm. Are you suggesting that tracing those is going to be faster than a diagnostic step of a ccm swap and bearing in mind I dont have access to door internals ?
