Volkswagen Passat Club

Hi, I'm viewing a 2011 Passat with original VW media screens in the headrests. I've no experience of using these in any car and was wondering how they work. From the advert photos there seems to be a USB socket. Do you simply connect your smartphone to the unit using a USB cable and whatever you're watching on your smartphone (Netflix, Amazon etc) it is shown on the screens? Are they DVD compatible as well? Hopefully someone can help.

Hi I have a 2.0 litre diesel 2018 plate with a DSG gear box. I had the mechatronic box replaced in Nov-23 and last year I started to notice it was occasionally "slipping" between 2nd and 3rd gears i.e. revving well over 2000 (it would normally changed 2nd to 3rd at about 2000 revs). Some times it would change automatically after the high revs, some times I would slow down and it would then change. I had never paid attention to the rev's before I had the fault that resulted in the new mechatronic (that was a complete failure with no warning, leaving me with just 2,4 and 6th gears). The "slipping" was very infrequent. I mentioned this to the independent VW/Audi specia…

Anyone know if there is a lowering kit available for a 2024 model

Hi all. I have a 2013 Passat Alltrack. The heater is playing up. When i set off, all is OK. About 10 minutes into a journey the heater stops blowing through the vents. The fan is still working. If I stop and push random heater control buttons it all works again. 10 minutes into the journey, all stops again. It's as if the vents are closing. I changed the pollen filter and it worked for about an hour, then all stop again. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
