Hi, just came across this post. Let me know if you got the car fixed. I repair cars and I am quite familiar with Passats. |

At first check the termustart and radiator then open the reservoir water if the water is returning into the reservoir while engine is running......after checking this make a feedback. |

you have something wrong with your cooling system, its either leaking somewhere or one of the tubes is blocked, proper diagnosis will point you in the right direction, a pressure test should be carried out with a cooling system pressure tester, with application of pressure,the point of leakage would be verified and hopefully fixed, don't conclude on buying a new engine yet, you may be lucky the overheating issue has not caused serious damage. |

YemmyDeRock: What kind of engine are you looking to get (1.8T - 4 cylinder, 2.0 - 4 cylinder or 2.8 - V6)? What transmission (auto or manual)? European or American spec? Passats are great cars if you understand them, and have someone who understands them maintain and fix them. |
