good evening, pls people I need help. I bought this VOLKSWAGEN passat 2006 model for my wife, and ever since then the happiness I was looking for totally vanished. electrical faults here and there...the latest 1 now is that the car is discharging every battery that enters it. including a new battery that I bought last week. I have gone to VOLKSWAGEN market several times under 3weeks that I bought the car. please people I need help urgently.... thanks. I have also spent 180,000 that I dnt have, and yet the car is still killing me......

Na God save me.. My dad almost forced me into buying one passat August last year. I remember firing hot prayers for Gods guidance on the eve we were supposed to go and make payment. Miraculously the next day before payment we noticed some electrical faults which the dealer couldn't fix till the following day. On getting there again God just directed us to one sweet 2005 Toyota camry. Since last year August I only visit mechanic to change oil. The vehicle has gone to uromi thrice. No shaking

What was the initial fault when you bought the car?

actually, they said there's nothing wrong with it. atlst tht was what my friend told me b4 I paid. but I found out afterwards that its having electrical issue b4 I sent it to the VOLKSWAGEN market at iyanitire.

What is the problem

Anyone buying any Passat B5, B5.5, B6 should have themselves to blame.

Very wicked and terrible thing to own after warranty expires, a terribly evil car to buy if Nigerian Used. Then the most greatest evil disaster to buy if its converted and also Nigerian used abused
Tufiakwa!

That one butchers VW Audi products

Op what exactly is the problem? Just scan and give us codes ensure you use VAG scan tool

it drains battery.

Oga passat is one of the best car u can buy and very easy to maintain. Only if u get thr European spec. I have used 1999 model 2003 model and 2007 model. May be the car u bought has been fiddled with by all these kazeems. Just run a comprehensive scan on the car and replace not repair any faulty parts on the car

No, why do you ask?

Change/check the alternator. Make sure the earth wire for the alternator is properly fixed. Talking from experience.

Scan scan scan

Check your alternator, to be sure it's performing its function


Did you install new parts like car stereo/reverse camera? Those can drain your battery

Check electrical connections using the fuse box to ground technique.


Get a good and patient electrician.

Battery drain after a poorly done electrical job is a possibility on any car brand.

Get a rewire that can troubleshoot using a multimeter to isolate the parasitic drain.

It would be hard due to all these modules that remain awake normally after you shut down the car but it can be done

Start from the recent repairs and work backwards.

Update on discoveries

Cheers

I have an audi b7 and its one of the sweetest cars i have used. VAG is not as bad as the bystanders mean

corosion around electrical components such as fuses and connectors can also cause this....

Don't waste money on scan. It won't give you desired result for this fault you described.

I can remotely guide you through very easy procedure but it has to be as you are on the job.

You can chat with me on 08030420562.
