Separated at birth? From the side, they have the same blacked out mid pillar and same rear cutline except one goes back and one goes forward. Same with the rear bumper. From the front, the front grille even has the same basic shape and if you put on passat headlights, it would look almost like a passat.
The interior is also way better than the new passat. I've owned a pontiac and it's interior was lousy even by standards then. A chevy actually looks better on the inside than a VW? It looks like it came out of an Audi!
Except for the front, I definitely see the resemblance! However, I have not bought a car from the big 3 in 10 years and since I rarely buy new cars anyways, probably won't for a while.
I don't think that's true, the jetta and 4 door golf don't look like that. It's got a somewhat buick-phaeton stretched sedan look. The front and rear overhangs are also very close. The rear and front look are very close. It's the trapezoidal grille and the hood line that meets the grille.
Hm...the front not so much, the back and the sides are right on. It's the wide trunk, white part in the taillights, and the lip on the end of the trunk.
The ford taurus and the passat look the same too but I've seen the ford taurus, it looks more beefy in the front from a different angle. From this angle, the round greenhouse and proportions are right on! They both have this "bubbly" look. In fact, the more I look at it, the more they look the same. If you switched the grille and headlights, most people won't be able to tell the difference.
Huh? The Ford Taurus doesn't look anything like the old passat. The taillights and grille are all wrong. It's the angle of the picture. If anything, the Taurus looks like an Audi A4 from the side. Same bubble dome, even the rear window is pointed instead of blunted like the Passat. Change the front headlights, bada bing!
My wife had issues getting the key to turn from the off position. After a while, it turned and the car started. Now the key is stuck in the on position and wont shut off. I pulled the fuel pump fuse then disconnected the negative battery terminal, so the car is off. Any ideas what might have...

Hello,
This is my second time posting, and I had been meaning to write this, but I'm looking for a general care/maintenance guide for a TDI if anyone has any tips/suggestions.
I have never owned a diesel before so I don't know much about them, and so I wanted to reach out and learn more. If...
Hi all
I own a 2007 VW Golf 5, 1.9TDI diesel.
Car is very nice to drive and has enough power when needed.
I do have one irritating problem with it. It looses coolant. There is no leaks and pressure test and block test came back positive.
I suspect the water pushes back into the reservoir and...
The car started going into limp mode. We replaced the turbo cartridge, the N-75 and still was in limp. Towed it to the dealer and they replaced the boost feed line. Probably the original cause of the limp. Now it runs fine until the engine gets hot and it goes back into limp. Dealer wants to...
