Driving home tonight and the first 20 miles everytuing is normal, then
leaving a 50mph limit put my foot down and the acceleration is flat, same

Throttle body - 99 V6 Passat31 Aug 2006 19:50 GMT5
My Passat (99 V6) was in to the dealer for an intermittent cruise control.
They ended up replacing the cruise control switch but then apparently
needed to "perform throttle body adaptation". This operation failed,
despite there being no previous trouble codes related to this ...
92 Cab Cluster Q's31 Aug 2006 01:19 GMT2
So we just bought a 92 Cab 5sp Karmann edition.  There are a couple weird
things going on with the cluster.
First Question is how do I get it out of the dash?  I had all the trim and
switches off and had the two screw holding it at the top out but I couldn't
Gauge issues30 Aug 2006 17:05 GMT4
I have an 84 Scirocco. The problem is the LED on the water temp gauge.
It flashes continuously. It worked normally when I first had the car.
Over the years it stayed on longer and longer until now - it won't
stop. I have also had at one point the fuel and water gauge both not
Rusting welded joints30 Aug 2006 14:20 GMT6
I own a 2002 Passat GLX 4motion.  The car is in perfect condition except
the chassis welded joints are all rusting.  There is no rust anywhere else
on the car.  Is this a defect in the manufacturing?
Thanks
EPC Light30 Aug 2006 02:37 GMT1
I've seen thousands of postings about this everywhere, but I thought
I'd give it a shot. I have a 2001 VW New Beetle, and for the past three
months the EPC light keeps going on and off. Every time I take it to a
shop or the dealer, they tell me they can't see anything wrong. I've
Transporter steering problem?29 Aug 2006 14:58 GMT1
Unusual problem on a neighbours VW Transporter FWD TDi van. On acceleration
it pulls very gently to the right, and when you back the power off, it pulls
slightly to the left. If power is constant, it drives perfectly striaght.
Wheel alignment has been done and was fine. N/S front ...
Owner's Manual Help...29 Aug 2006 12:31 GMT1
I've recently become the proud owner of a 2000 Jetta GL, and I'm loving
every moment of it so far.  The only complaint I have is that the
previous owner evidently threw away the owner's manual...  Anybody know
a place where I can grab a pdf, or otherwise online owner's manual?
Valet Key29 Aug 2006 01:53 GMT1
We bought a used (barely) 05 Passat and I was wondering, did they come with
a valet key? We didn't get one. Wouldn't this be a special order dealer
item?

98 Jetta Gl: Aftermarket Audio28 Aug 2006 22:48 GMT4
Now that I have a tiny bit of discretionary income, I'm looking to fill the
void left by the previous owner when he/she removed the factory AM/FM radio.
I am not an audio "perfectionist" when it comes to car radios or cd players.
I just want something that¹s pleasing to the ears ...
Diesel fuel prices28 Aug 2006 22:46 GMT24
I don't know if this has been discussed before, but could someone in the
know, explain why deisel fuel is so insanely high? And why the
professional truck driver's and the railroads, aren't screaming their
brains out? It's driving the price of everything we use out of reach!
