    Volkswagen Passat TDI Engine Air Filter Replacement DIY (2010-2015 VW Golf, B7 Passat, Beetle, A3)

    By FCP Euro

    ►If you neglect your engine air filter, you'll choke your engine and restrict its airflow. That restriction forces your turbo to work twice as hard, tanks your fuel economy, and still delivers poor performance. Luckily, all you have to do is replace the filter; a very simple task. Engine air filters typically last around 30,000 miles, but that's environment-dependent. Dusty climates can shorten filter lifespan fairly considerably. Replacing the filter involves opening the airbox and swapping out the filter element. You won't need any tools, just your hands to pry open a couple of clips. This…

    Volkswagen Passat Front Strut Replacement DIY (2012-2015 VW B7 Passat)

    By FCP Euro

    ►The front struts on your B7 Passat work with the springs to deliver a composed and comfortable ride. However, they'll wear out after around 80,000 miles, leaving you with a bouncy, crashy ride because they can no longer dampen road imperfections. At that point, you'll need to replace them, which you can totally do at home in an afternoon. Replacing your front struts is fairly straightforward on a B7 Passat. You'll need a spring compressor to safely remove the springs, but the rest of the process doesn't require anything specialized. The only potential hang-up will be the corrosion you might…

    Volkswagen Passat TDI DSG Transmission Service DIY (2009-2014 VW B7 Passat, Jetta, Golf TDI)

    By FCP Euro

    ►Whether attached to a gasoline engine or a diesel engine, your Volkswagen's DSG transmission will need regular servicing. Its lubricating fluid is also the hydraulic fluid used for actuation, so it needs to be kept clean and healthy to prevent any issues. VW recommends a 40,000-mile service interval for the fluid and filter. Driving beyond that can lead to missed shifts, harsh engagement, and eventually clutch pack failure. Luckily, servicing the DSG transmission is pretty straightforward. Servicing the DSG in the B7 Passat is the same process as it would be in most other VWs from that era w…

    Volkswagen Passat TDI Front Brake Pad & Rotor Replacement DIY (2012-2015 VW B7 Passat, Golf, Jetta)

    By FCP Euro

    ►The front brakes on your VW Passat account for a bit over 50% of its braking capability. As such, they're likely to wear before the rear pads and rotors. Most likely, the brake pad wear sensor will trip, alerting you that the pads are low. However, brake pads and rotors can wear out before then, causing deep grooves in the rotor face or warped rotors. Replacing the front brake pads and rotors on a B7 Passat is very straightforward. You'll need a few hand tools and a free afternoon, but not much else. It's a perfect DIY for a beginner, too, so don't be afraid to tackle it yourself. In this vi…

    Volkswagen Passat TDI Glow Plug Replacement DIY (2012-2014 VW B7 Passat, Golf, Jetta, CKRA, CJAA)

    By FCP Euro

    ►Diesel engines don't use an ignition system; compression is the sole catalyst for ignition. However, they do use an electrically powered component that's positioned in the combustion chamber, like a spark plug. In this case, diesel engines use glow plugs to heat the chambers. Cold weather makes starting a diesel fairly difficult, and the plugs are meant to assist with that. If damaged or incorrectly functioning, you may have trouble starting in cold weather. Glow plugs don't have a specific replacement interval and can last well beyond 100,000 miles without issue. It's case-dependent, so rep…

    Car Companies Are Finally Bringing Buttons Back (The Roman Report)

    By Regular Car Reviews

    WE WON! After years of replacing physical buttons and dials with oversized touchscreens, automakers are finally admitting that littering the interiors of their cars with touchscreens has been a massive mistake. This isn’t just one or two automakers either. Volkswagen, Subaru, Audi, Hyundai, Volvo, Ferrari, Porsche, and other manufacturers are completely reconsidering their approach to automotive infotainment, bringing back physical climate controls, volume knobs, and traditional switches after years of complaints from drivers. In this month’s Roman Report, I’ll talk at length about the cars t…

    Volkswagen Passat TDI Cabin Air Filter Replacement DIY (2012-2015 VW Golf, Passat, Beetle, TDI)

    By FCP Euro

    ►Like your engine, your air conditioning and heating system uses a filter to clean the air. Without it, dirt, twigs, and leaves would get sucked into the HVAC system and blown around the cabin. Instead, the filter blocks the debris, keeping you clean. However, that does mean you'll need to replace the filter once it's dirty. That typically happens after about 30,000 miles, but the exact mileage depends on your driving conditions. In this video, FCP Euro's Volkswagen Expert, Marissa Simos, takes you through a cabin air filter replacement on a Volkswagen B7 Passat TDI. 00:00 - Intro 01:23 - Job…

    Volkswagen Passat TDI Oil Change DIY (2012-2014 VW B7 Passat, Golf, Jetta TDI, CKRA, CJAA)

    By FCP Euro

    ►Diesel engine oil is not comparable to gasoline engine oil. While their lubricating bases are similar, the additives are completely different to support the vastly different needs of a diesel engine. The latter needs far more detergents to cut down sludge and low-SAPS to play nicely with modern diesel emissions. Sulfated ash in older oil blends can wreak havoc on DPFs, destroying thousands of dollars in parts, so you must ensure your oil is the right specification. Volkswagen developed its 507.00 standard for modern DPF-equipped diesel engines. It's made for longer drain intervals with more…

    Volkswagen Passat TDI Mass Air Flow Sensor Replacement DIY (2009-2015 VW Jetta, B7 Passat, Golf TDI)

    By FCP Euro

    ►The MAF sensor is critical to a well-running engine because it gives the engine computer the precise air-intake values it needs for fueling calculations. Even a slight variation can throw its performance and fuel economy completely out of whack. It's a common failure point on 2.0L TDI engines, and while there isn't a strict manufacturer service interval, we typically see these sensors begin to fail between 80,000 and 150,000 miles. Replacing the MAF sensor on your TDI engine is a very simple process. You'll need to unclip some plastic and remove a couple of screws, but that's about it. You c…

    Forget the Coupe? The New Polestar 4 SUV Driven!

    By Electrifying

    The Polestar 4 has always been an interesting electric car, but now there's a new version that might make even more sense. Meet the Polestar 4 SUV – with a proper rear window, more headroom, a bigger boot and a clever new glass roof. And here's the surprise: it costs thousands of pounds less than the original Polestar 4 Coupe. But is this really an SUV? And is it the electric family car you should be considering instead of a Porsche Macan Electric, Volkswagen ID.7 Tourer or one of the new wave of premium Chinese EVs? In this video, Nicola takes a detailed look at the new Polestar 4 SUV, explo…
