 I might be unlucky with this car... My 
Passat became a whole trouble starting 
right after the first oil change: for 
those two and a half years that I owned 
it, I fixed about 10 different defects 
under warranty and from my pocket. Plus 
not yet fixed but persisting problem 
with rough idle and vibration. So, I 
decided to get rid from it untill the 
problems get worse because for $26000 I 
could have anticipated something more 
reliable...
