Passat (B5) :: 2000 1.8T Vacuum Leak On Cold Start - Emissions Workshop 1 Code Flashing

I have a 2000 Passat 1.8T. When I start it up in the morning I hear a loud obnoxious noise like a vacuum leak from the engine compartment. It lasts for about 1.5 minutes then runs normally. After about a minute it starts up again and only last for about 7 seconds...ish. When I drive it afterwards, less that a half block or so, the CEL light goes on after 1 beep. Also, at that time I get a messages from the instrument panel that says "Emissions Workshop 1". I've read that it could be a simple damaged vacuum hose to the secondary air pump. Definitely a huge price difference to repair.

This morning is was colder outside than usual and the dash kept beeping and flashing the "Emissions Workshop 1" code intermittently.

Passat (B5) :: CEL Accompanied By Emissions Workshop Message Came On

I'm the orgional owner of a 2001 Passat 1.8T with manual transmission...It has 93,000 miles on it.
Last week, the check engine light came on and a "Emissions Workshop!" message light came on. It was on for a few days,then disappeared for a few days,only to come back.

I took it to Autozone for a reading. Here's the results:

"The PCM has determined that during testing,the fuel system for bank 1 was too lean.

Definition: Fuel trim bank one condition

Explanation: The powertrain control module uses the oxygen sensor to calculate the air/fuel ratio of the engine.

The computer has recognized a rich or lean condition on one engine bank only.

Probable Causes:1. If bank one and two codes set together fuel pressure or MAF Sensor

2. Oxygen sensor defective

3. Ignition misfire-repair

4. Fuel injector repair.

Someone here asked if my oil was recently changed-It was.

Driveability hasn't been affected,nor has mpg. The car drives as normal.

I need to go on a 1,000 mile trip in a few days,and don't think I'll have time to have the car serviced.

Passat (B5) :: CEL Came On And Emissions Workshop Message Popped Up

I bought a 2000 Passat GLS w/ the V6 a couple weeks ago, and the very next day after buying it, the CEL came on and something popped on saying Emissions Workshop. I waited a couple weeks to see if it would turn off, but it didn't so I took it to a mechanic.

The first time, they just said a couple codes were off so they reset the computer. About 20 miles later, the lights came back on. I took it back and they hooked it up to their computer again.

They said the o2 sensors were perfect, and it was most likely some sort of resistance in one of my cats. The car runs absolutely perfect. I just wanted to get some feedback from ya'll because I do not want to pay the money to have a cat replaced if I don't have to.

Passat (B5) :: Emissions Workshop Light Staying On

My emissions workshop light is staying on now in my passat. I don't have a Vag-Com cable for my laptop yet so I scanned for codes with the generic code scanner at Advance Auto. It came up with something about the downstream 02's low voltage or something close to that. It has just over 100k on it now... is this a common issue with these cars? Is it usually the o2's that are the culprit or is it usually a Cat problem? I replaced the PCV hoses (those crappy wire loom looking pieces that fall apart under the engine covers) with much nicer fuel hose and barb fittings thinking that they might have been the culprit, but that was before I scanned it, it obviously didn't work. 2000 LX 4-Motion...

Passat (B5) :: Code P1128 Along With Emissions Workshop Warning Appeared

Car is a 2000 Passat Wagon 1.8T ATW FWD

I get the P1128 code and Emissions Workshop warning most of the year, then it cycles off in the summer. It went off yesterday, back on today, and I imagine it will go off again for weeks/months as the weather heats up.

Things I've tried so far:

Replaced MAF sensor

Replaced MAF wiring harness

Replaced front 02 sensor

Replaced air filter

Replaced cracked vacuum tubes, at least those accessible from the top. Some of the hidden lengths theoretically could be at issue but a mechanic said they were ok.

What I've not replaced is the secondary air pump. (Mechanic told me it's dry and checks okay.)

Passat (B5) :: High-pitched Beep Went Off While Driving - Emissions Workshop Warning

On Sunday the high-pitched beep went off while driving, followed by the orange engine light to the left of the speedo needle and EMISSIONS WORKSHOP coming up on the computer.

Everything is normal. Revs are fine, temp is fine, no other lights come on. I checked the coolant and that is fine too. This happened about two months ago, but it stopped after a couple of days.

Could this be something like an O2 censor?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Car Juddered And Emissions Workshop Warning Came Up

On New Years day the water pump on my Golf MK4 broke and all coolant leaked out. I had that replaced together with the cam belt. When I got the car back, the next day when the car was starting from cold I noticed it was very rough when idle, car about to stall then RPM jumps, drops and jumps up again. I drove for a minute and when stopped at some lights, the car juddered and "Emissions Workshop" warning came up along with 'ECU / engine warning light' and 'Brake system / brake fluid warning light'. Drove a couple more minutes and all warnings disappeared. Was fine for rest of the day.

Same thing happened the next morning. Once warmed up it is fine for the rest of the day unless the car is left undriven long enough for it to be completely cold. I know nothing about cars so have relied on my local garage. I was told the diagnostics reported a fault with the coil pack so had that changed along with plugs and leads. The next morning the same problem was still there. Then told could be coolant temperature sensor so had that replaced too. Still same problem.

Phaeton :: Level Fault Workshop - ABS / ESP Lights On When Put Car In Gear And Start Moving

One of my issues is a "level fault workshop" message and abs/ esp lights that only appear once I put the car in gear and start moving.

The car does seem to raise and lower normally and there doesn't seem to lose height over night.

To check if it's a particular wheel height sensor, what controller should I scan in vcds? Nothing related to suspension came up in my full auto scan.

I did have an intermittent brake light switch code, could that generate the level fault?.

Passat (B5) :: 2000 VW Randomly Stalls And Hard To Start

I just bought a 2000 VW passat GLS 1.8T, and I'm having a very odd problem with it... I have trouble starting it, almost like the starter is going out, then it starts and runs fine, then I'll be driving and the screen on the gauge cluster will say stop and I'll start getting a beep, if I don't stop the car dies, if I do then it just sort of putters for a second and then goes back to normal, when it dies it loses all power completely everything shuts off then it resets. At first I thought it was the starter, then it started doing this.

Ford - Explorer :: 2000 - Emissions ECU Would Not Reset

A little embarrassed about a problem I have had getting the Emissions computer to reset for emissions testing in Maryland. I tried everything the testing station suggested, but could not get the codes to reset, for readiness for emissions testing. I surrendered after 5 or 6 trips to the testing station, and took it to my very trusted mechanic, thinking I had a bad ECU, and he would need to replace it. I would have done it myself, but figured I would not be able to re-program it myself, so would rely on my mechanic.

Got the car back, fixed for less than $50 (they did other maintenance work as well). Guess what it was? It was a blown fuse! This is the second time this 2000 Explorer XLT, 5.0 has me stumped and it was just a fuse - first time was tow-hitch lighting. So now, no matter what, I will check all the fuses first! Regardless of the problem - ok, maybe only a last resort when I have a flat tire

Acura - Rsx :: 2002 - Emissions Light On The Dash Lights Up

The "emissions" light on the dash of my 2002 Acura RSX lights up when I run the heater in winter months. It only comes on when the heater is on. It is never on in the summer, and even when it is warmer outside and I have the heater on, it will turn off. The gas cap is not loose, and the car is otherwise in great condition. Is this something I need to worry about?
