So i’ve had this passat b5.5 for atleast six months it now has 400k km. I had a turbo leak and it’s been awhile i finally fixed it two days ago and now the car doesn’t start it was running well the first few hours and then i heard a metallic grinding noise and all of a sudden the car doesn’t start anymore… Does anyone have any idea of what it could be ? It’s the BHW engine
Up til last week I had consistently above 40 MPG. Half a tank would last me from Friday to Friday the week after. Then last week it only lasted from Friday to Monday, despite similar distances. It’s currently average 30 something even 27-29 MPG. It’s been drinking a lot of gas these past 2 weeks. I recently switched to another place with less highway so maybe that the gas mileage, but it shouldn’t be that bad.
My driving is the same, and I’m a cruise driver. I realized when the gas mileage dropped, my car tends to move glide faster and more aggressive when my gear is on D.
So a while ago my dad was driving the car when suddenly the brake pedal became hard and the “low oil pressure, stop engine now” popped up on the dash. Both of these issues occurred simultaneously, and I can’t pinpoint where the problem is and which part to replace. There’s tons of opinions online and almost all have different answers for this problem. Can y’all help me??
I'm looking into the car mentioned above. It has 1700000km on it. I've heard that the tensioner is a problem. How common is this? Is it worth the hassle even if the car is a good deal?
Thanks
