Hi, Well, god seems to hate me. I am leaking coolant like a sieve.. Looks like it's coming from somewhere between the firewall and the dash (all I can see is...
Well, nevermind. It's definitely my heater core.. steam blowin through the vents and all :( Anyone know how much one of these runs for a B4 passat? --Chris...
Go to the dealership and complain. Tell them your girlfriend/wife almost got burnt. I believe there was a recall for failing heater cores for '94-'95. They...
Chris, I'm sorry, the outlook is bleak for your situation. I don't have all the details, but I think to R&R the core at the dealer is somewhere over a $grand$...
I no longer live near the dealer where I purchased my 2001 Jetta VR6. I'm in need of 40K mile service. There are three VW dealers in my new area, but I'm...
BTW, I live in Pennsylvania, Lehigh Valley, about 1.5h N of Philly. I was looking for general guidelines--not necessarily specifics, although I welcome that,...
... Not to burst anyone's bubble, but the big heater core recall was for Corrado's. However, there's a possibility that the cores are the same for Passat's,...

Hi All, To those in SoCal, particularly Orange County: I am selling the original BBS (w/BBS caps) 15x6" (5x100mm?) wheels from my 1995 Passat GLX. They are...
Do all VR6's have the same chain tensioner setup?? Do you believe that just replacing the tensioner would have prevented the failure, or perhaps chain and...

Well, it was indeed my heater core.. It's spewing even more coolant now, leaking some into the car itself, and fogging out the vents quite badly. It looks like...
Did you check into this at the dealership? Perhaps it's covered under a recall for the earlier 94-95 VR6's. I haven't replaced my heater core, but you have to...
I checked on alldata.com for any recalls for my car pertaining to the heater core and didn't see any.. While I'm not opposed to having VW fix it for free, I'm...
There was no recall on the heater core. Vw has been replacing them. I had mine replaced on a 93 and there was no charge. The complete dashboard has to come out...
Should I call the dealer or VWoA? I am slightly unsure of what angle I should take with this as I haven't had much luck in the past.. Did you just ask them to...

Not sure of where you are but Commonwealth VW-Audi in Sata Ana, CA (where my Corrado was puchased new) replaced the heater core at no charge (2-3days work)....
For the Corrado recall, apparently there were nasty threats of lawsuits from owners about the risk being scalded by hot coolant pouring into the foot wells and...
