Hi.

What is the color in which the BlueMotion Passats are always depicted?

The printed brochure also shows her that way, but there's nothing in the available colors on the back that would match.

OK.

then don't icon_smile.gif

But those boxes are already available in "all sorts of dope colors."

I once ordered a BLUEMOTION badge for the front - after all, mine is also blue and moves. Sometimes even quite fast icon_twisted.gif.

The Passat forum is currently running a test drive campaign for the BlueMotion. Sign up and order one in the color from the brochure for a test drive icon_wink.gif.

Bye.

Okay, please provide the text you would like me to translate from German to English.

The BlueMotion grill must have at least one bracket for the support of the lettering.

"The holder keeps falling out (it has no clips), and it doesn't fit properly in the standard Highline grill."

AKTE provides no information regarding the two screw holes.

I guess I'll have to build something icon_smile.gif.

Building a bracket like that will be tricky.
I'm taking lots of pictures.

Here's the goal:

The part is attached.

What I don't really like, but which isn't very visible in my photos, is:
The sign is originally flush with the rib above it, but on mine, it's set inwards.

Okay,

I was at the Autostadt on Saturday, and there was a Passat Bluemotion Variant parked there (next to a few other cars icon_smile.gif). I, in the best Japanese style, squeezed myself with my digital camera into every nook and cranny.

What I discovered:
- Kühlergrill has completely closed two spaces between the ribs.
- The cooling grill has a holder for the Bluemotion badge.
- Additional underbody protection in front of the rear axle.
- No air duct for front brake cooling.
- The protective grille around the fogger must always be closed (see https://community.dieselschrauber.org/en/viewtopic.php?t=16085).

I can provide images.

Converting your huge truck to Bluemotion is just superficial anyway... the only real one here is my Polo.

Ulf, he probably means the diesel particulate filter that self-cleans in a sustainable way...

Oh, the Lithuanian long-fingers will probably be even more attentive to your "fake" blue badge icon_confused.gif. Don't be surprised if your usual parking spot is empty icon_eek.gif.

I prefer a discreet-looking device like the ULF, but with a powerful engine, just like my Bully!

Sure.
The little sign says: "Just because I can."

The other changes (the grid around the fog lights, the underbody paneling) do, however, have a technical benefit or advantage.

I would have liked to have that advantage too - at least, my left horn is no longer being exposed to saltwater.

I will NOT partially close the grill, because 125 kW generates significantly more heat than 77 kW.
