View 2 RepliesPassat (B6) :: How To Adjust Door Alignment
I had some body work done this summer after my wife sideswiped another car. Both passenger-side doors had to come off for repairs/replacement and repainting. The end result looked great but after a little while I noticed that the rear door is about 3mm lower than it should be--the chrome trim around the windows and the crease in the sheet metal don't line up with the front door and the rear window surround. I imagine that fixing the alignment is a matter of supporting the door with a jack, loosening the hinge bolts where they attach to the b-pillar, nudging it into alignment, and re-tightening the bolts, but looking for a more specific procedure?

How do you adjust the low beam headlights for a 06 Passat? I have found the vertical adjustment now I'm trying to find the horizontal adjustment. For some reason the lights are aimed way out to either the left or the right. Has been like this since I bought the car. Had the car a month, only 42,000 and it's already been in the shop 3 times. Everything from ignition coil, to steering column and comfort control module.

How do you adjust the rear height on coilovers? I have the ST coilovers which are comparable to the KW. Do I have to compress the spring and then adjust? I tried to do it with the wrenches given but the whole thing just turns with it. I'm going to lower the front some more and I want to do the rear as well. It is my first set of coilovers on a car and I had someone else do the install.

View 4 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Climatronic System Trying To Adjust Temps But Motor Making Tick Noise
So the problem seems to be the climatronic system is constantly trying to adjust the temperature but the problem is that the motors or servos are making an annoying ticking noise as it adjusts. I already had the blend door assembly replaced but the noise is still there. My Touareg has climatronic and doesn't make any noise, so don't believe I should be getting this noise in my Passat. Service advisor claims its normal to make some noise since his Passat does the same thing, but I don't buy that. So who has had the same issue and got it fixed properly? What did they replace?
View 7 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Hood Won't Open
Not a great first week of ownership. Tried to open my hood tonite and find there is no tension whatsoever on the hood release lever. On my Corrado, I can pop it over w/ a screwdiver thru the grille, can this be done on a B6? It even looks like there is a cut out between the grille & hood to get at the release, but I can't figure it out for the life of me.

View 2 RepliesPassat (B5) :: 2004 - Hood Won't Release
My problem is that I get a pretty good pop from the main release inside the car. The hood doesn't come up too much, and the secondary release tab does not pop out from under the hood. I've managed to get the grille off. The tab will move back and forth a little, but then stops. Even yanking on it will not cause it to release the hood the rest of the way.
A couple of the fixes out there are spraying some lube in there (done) and popping the latch with a screwdriver (can't see how to do this on my car). There is even one for drilling a hole to get access, but I think this might be a B5 thing?
Passat (B5) :: Smell Like Oil Burning Off - Smoke From Under Hood

There is not alot of room in the back of these engines to see.
