Passat (B6) :: Car Is Taking Too Much Time To Accelerate

I've owned my passat 07 2.0t for 8 months now (less than 10k) and i've noticed a difference in performance.

I usually keep the car in D (instead of S) to save some gas. My car is taking an awful long time to accelerate, specially at the traffic lights. Much older cars and old drivers (grannys) pass me after the light turns to green (i'm always the last one to take off). The engine goes all to the way to 3k rpms making a loud noise (even with the windows up) as if it was @ redline. Eventually it catches up and the turbo kicks in and i can get a decent speed but it takes so much longer than before. I also noticed that while it's doing that i only get 5-6 mpg (according to the car's computer).

99, 1.8T, 215K:: Drove 10 minutes fine, turned off, turned back on, stumbling to get an idle...stays steady at 900RPM (normal enough), but engine shutters, hard to accelerate (slow pickup), a bit louder... (limp-home mode)

I am thinking Air mass meter based off of old SAAB Turbo experience, and am going to get it plugged in to check codes.

Passat (B6) :: Engine / Exhaust Noise Suddenly Tripled When Accelerate

I apparently broke the old girl again. Just hopping off the freeway, had been going freeway speed, go to accelerate after making the turn and my car suddenly sounded like I had ripped the exhaust off. Just a loud awful sound. Doesn't seem to have affected how she runs but... This is no bueno. In the morning I'll be hopping under the hood to see if it's something I can fix. Haven't checked to see if this is a warranty issue or not, but it'd be great if it is and somehow they extended it above 80k but I doubt it. I'd try and fix it myself depending on what happened, unfortunately I don't have much int he way of tools at the moment.

Prius (Gen 3) :: 2012 - Rattling Noise Almost Each Time When Accelerate

When I accelerate I notice a rattling noise almost each time. Is it bad gas? I have been getting gas (90-95% of the time) at the same gas station for years, including the whole time with my 2011.

Also for the first time today i got an error message on my screen for the radio that says something to the effect that the USB has too much power consumption and will not run.

When I powered off and powered back on after lunch it started working again. I never had either problem with my 2011.

Ford - Thunderbird :: 1992 Stalls Every Time Accelerate From A Stop

I have a 92 Ford Thunderbird and it stalls every time I accelerate from a stop. I am a single parent and extremely low on funds. I don't have a mechanic that I trust so I don't know where to turn. How much do you think it would cost to repair? I also struggle when I don't have a car. There is no public transportation close to where I live.

Passat (B6) :: Front End Seems Noisy

First off it's NOT the strut mounts or bearings. I just wasted a bunch of money installing new ones. Hard to tell if the noise is only on the driverside, but its not just at low speeds. Kind of a clunking during up/down movement.

Passat (B6) :: 2008 - Noisy And Rough Suspension

Have a 2008 B6 3.6 sedan. This car for 2008 comes equipped with a sport suspension and 18" wheels. This car is real noisy on the road especially if the road surface is anything but very smooth. The tires are noisy but the sport suspension seems rough on unsmooth roads. I would like to know if different shocks would make a difference. I want the taught control of course but with better compliance over rough areas.

Passat (B6) :: Noisy Rear Suspension On 2006 3.6 Vehicle

I have a bothersome bottoming out type of noise coming from near my empty trunk or underneath the trunk area. I have the 17" stock rims with stock mich. tires. I had VW check for the rubber rear shock absorber plate which I do have. I Have the rear tire secured as well as the battery. I have insulated the hard foam tool storage kit so it will not bounce going over irregular surfaces. Yet I still get this sound like a loose bar hitting against the underneath on less than perfect roads.
