Thanks how long did this take ? same day for removal and reinstall ? I think I might have to have the timing chain system replaced. got the camshaft and crankcase errors bank 1. Plus misfires so I started by replacing the sparks and coils to still have the engine issue. after seeing a few videos I am thinking I am not going to be able to do the chain myself.
I have the same Passat with same 4motion transmission. I just watched you remove the engine with the transmission still attached. Can you see any issues removing and replacing just the transmission on its own without pulling the motor. Any tricks or problems I should be mindful of? Great video.
Super useful video! I’m about to do the timing chains on my 2006 Passat and came across this video just in time.
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!

I think it can be removed separately but the clearances will be tight! Thanks for watching!
