Customer Reviews

Very good manual. A little difficult to find the repair your looking for.: If you have a Passat in this year range you have to own this book. It is a valuable resource even if you are only trying to change a light bulb.
That being said there is a sticking point that is a bit annoying. If you were trying to change a light bulb and knew exactly where it was on the car, it could probably take anywhere up to 10 minutes to find… More reviews

VERY thorough manual, just wish it had photos.: Very thorough manual for the experienced mechanic. Requires familiarity with the location of the various components and assumes how and when to do certain tasks. Wish it had photos to see where things actually are before digging in.… More reviews

A pretty good manual: Has a TON of info that other books don't have. However, it's lacking in some of the simple things. One example (among several) being that VW claims to have a lifetime fuel filter, so the book doesn't cover how to replace it. It's not hard at all, just figured it should be in there.… More reviews

Must have if you purchase a used VW Passat: Just bought a VW Passat with 75,000 miles on it, and decided to get this book (in part because I love to personally maintain my cars). The book is well written and I think just about anyone can do most of the maintenance on their own. I have already saved around $220 dollars by just changing spark plugs, air filter, cabin air filter and… More reviews

must have for passat owners: The step by step instuctions in this book are easy enough for anyone to be able to do minor maintenance by themselves. It is absolutly necessary if you want to do a decent job of maintaining your car without taking it to the dealer every 5k miles. It's written with the average driver in mind and will teach you a lot about your car. I recommend it if you're interested in keeping your… More reviews
