If that were to happen, the HOCHton speaker would get splashed because normally the open grille is facing forward (except for the BM and me , where everything is closed on the left side).

For the subwoofer, there's only a small slot for pulling out the grille if you need to have it towed.

Okay, please provide the German text you would like me to translate into English. I will only provide the translation.

If the horn would last at least from one oil change to the next, then it could simply be included in the maintenance schedule: "Change oil, replace horn,..."


Okay, a little off-topic: In my Peugeot, I have a quartet of speakers, some from Magneti Marelli and others from Valeo. So, there are two pairs, one high-frequency and one low-frequency speaker each. The Valeo pair is standard equipment, while the Italian "trumpet" duo was salvaged from a 1994 (!) Fiat Tipo and, luckily, I acquired them before it was scrapped. Now I have a double set because the 206 has been largely ignored or intentionally overlooked so far. Whoever now gets to experience this "trumpet" quartet will at least be surprised.

Let's summarize: These Italian sports cars, now about 16 years old, with at least 300,000 km of road experience, are still going strong and causing quite a stir. And what German premium manufacturers are giving to customers who demand high quality is supposed to be replaced annually?!


Which manufacturer made this hearing aid?


Okay, back to an off-topic question: Why do some vehicles of this series have clear turn signal lenses while others have orange ones? Is there a pattern like: "orange turn signals for vehicles with VIN numbers up to [FIN number], and white turn signals thereafter?"

Hi Martin,

To the best of my knowledge, my horns are still the original ones and both are working. Within my close circle of acquaintances, I now have two more 3Cs, and none of them have known horn defects either.

OT: Regarding the infrequent use, I only know about my current wife's Kadett from back then: Apparently, rust or something similar built up in the horn. After a month of non-use, it would regularly start with a loud buzzing sound, which then within 20 seconds would turn into a normal honk. It almost sounded like a cow mooing and opening its mouth completely from being closed to fully open within 20 seconds...

No, not FIN, but dependent on the equipment line. Only the cheapest Trendline (which your employer probably ordered ) has orange. All models above that (Comfort, Sport, and Highline) have the clear ones.

You can easily identify the Highline model from the outside by its horizontally chrome-plated grille and chrome roof rails. (Inside, it features leather upholstery.)
The Comfortline trim features chrome window surrounds (and flat seats inside), while the Sportline has black window surrounds (and seats with side bolsters).

But most of the elements can also be exchanged for the look of the other line for an additional fee .

Regards,
Sure.

Here is the translation of the text from German to English:

"Guste" means "gust" in English. It can also be used as a verb, meaning "to gust."

Thanks! And does the Trendline also have black window frames?

Yep. Nice to see you under http://www.volkswagen.de/vwcms/master_public/virtualmaster/de3/modelle/passat/Passat_Variant/highlights/design.html, and then click on "Configurator" on the left. Simply hover your mouse over the different trim levels there.

P.S.: Yellow turn signals are not available, even as an optional extra, on the higher trim levels, but only on the Trendline model. (Unless you purchase them from a parts supplier and install them yourself.)

Regards,
Sure.

Not quite:

Turn signal:
Trendline: Yellow turn signals and black trim around them.
Bluemotion (at least until model year 2009): chrome turn signals and painted door trim.
all others: white turn signals and painted [parts].
US version: yellow turn signals including yellow reflectors and painted finish.

Chrome:
Trendline: nothing.
Sportline: Side skirts.
Comfort: Sides and windows.
High: Sides, windows, railing, and grill.
Bluemotion (until MJ09): Sides and grill.

Windows and railings could be purchased as optional extras for the CL and SL models.
Do NOT grill - but you can buy that separately and then exchange it for a different one when you pick up your order in WOB.
(Guess who played through both options .
