i bought this car in 2009 and used it till 2016. not even a single thing broke down. only normal maintenance, oil, brakes, filter , etc. super comfortable and reliable.
I can feel the VW quality from here..I swear the Jettas and Passats from this gen have the coldest a/c and it dosent preform too bad despite having a meager 108 hp
Great vid, one of my cars is this exact model but the estate version, i just can not bring myself to sell it as it never fails ,the 1.9 td red i engine is one of the best most reliable engines v.w has ever made to date (if serviced as per manual).mine has 200k on it & still drives like when i first got it 12 years ago , even the air con works perfectly as long as you work on full power now & again even in the winter months. 70+mpg @ 55 mph motorway 110bhp..an amazeing work horse that will do over 300k no probs........
If only someone in America could make videos like these.. showing new cars like Aston Martin, Ferraris, Porche, Lamborghini, BMW's, Audi, Mercedes Benz.. Etc Etc. It would be so cool. And it wouldn't matter either even if they had a crazy channel name like.. oh i dunno,.. say Kyle or Saab.. 94 or something like that. Oh well i guess i can only hope. :P
Just had to scrap mine after 20 yrs the best car ever.It will be sadly missed 220000 miles on it and engine was still sound. Just needed too many other repairs. Mine was the 110 hp .
4 degrees...I wish we had that weather now. At the moment its closer to 35. I hate the heat, and want winter back! Are you still in the UK, or have you finished all your exams?

ACEcolorado1 I agree! I have a 2000 Jetta with 115 hp and it performs well on the twisted roads
I really love watching reviews of old cars, Thanks for this great review.
I still love old cars because they are so simple to operate

I like the equipment on this 14 year old car.
This Passat is the same age as me! :)
Nice brother never knew about the window trick!!!! Very cool
Lol! Same here. I just had to walk to try the trick immediately in the middle of the night ^_^...and yes, it works.
The emmisions are quite alright for a car of this age as well.
The interior is very similar to the 2003 skoda superb
Yes it's the 130hp version
Thanks from Ukraine. Good tour.
Big Apple Thanks!
4 degrees...I wish we had that weather now. At the moment its closer to 35. I hate the heat, and want winter back! Are you still in the UK, or have you finished all your exams?
got one as my first car, its a 1.6 but for the first car its enough.. i had to keep an eye on the ensurance costs etc.
great tour, thank you
Great videos mate
Sport edition did not have all 3 etters of the TDI in red?
Yes, it's the 130hp version
I was wondering if you could try to find an MK3(1992-1999) Volkswagen Jetta, I own a 1999 Wolfsburg Edition.
hi mate nice video,do you know wher the cd changer is located on this car?
I come from 3 years into the future, is on the trunk of the car
when i was a kid my dad had this car and i used the key to roll all the windows down but the car alarm went off instead ;----;
i really like this review exellent best ever
It uses the Volkswagen Jetta frame
No.
Hey! Please help me! Remote key is how much MHz? 433,92?
i have a question do u know for this passat does it have an aux input???
Yoboy Lbj No it does not, only cassette/CD
I suggest to use a auxiliar tape with this car, nice sound
thanks good vid👍👍👍
awesome vid.
U still have got this passat?
This is not my car.
190kms/hr top speed... buddy has never maxed one out.... I had mine doing 240kms/hr and still had 1000rpm left to go(5spd transmission.)
sport ? hahah standard TDI in VW family :), where is cruise control ? i have it in 97 passat :D
1.9 TDI ( code name : AFN 110 ps / hp
235 Nm
VP fuel system 10mm standard
turbo pressure 0.95 bar
110 hp at 4150 rmp
best torque : 1750 - 3000 rpm
turbo is VNT 15 - 1549va single or twin fan ( you can recognize it if your's car pull you into chair from around 1500 rpm then you're have twin fan :) )
all passat's have controled power windows from key ( like in 0:53 ) mine too from 1996 model 97 year :)
year of the car you can recognize by instruments led color :
green - 1996 / 97 Immo 1
blue - 1997 / 2000 immo 2
with blue lights you probably has a engine with PD fuel system
in passat b5 there is no " SPORT " tdi ...
1Z engine 90 hp
AFN / AVG 110 hp
and newer after 1997 atj for example on PD fuel system
Sport is the trim level.
dont twist with steering wheel when you stay... it is idiotic..
I agree. ..it destroys the bushes over time.....
nice guide. got the german version ^^ im german duh
My dad owns this car and it has a turbo or something and parts to make him go faster
Edit: when you go 30 in my dad's car it feels like your going 73
Ur deffo like 10
got one as my first car, its a 1.6 but for the first car its enough.. i had to keep an eye on the ensurance costs etc.
