Depending where you are located and whether or not you have warranty. Quality Foreign In Ballston Spa. Talk to Paulie. Both he and Tom are great at their jobs but Nemer charges more and is less likely to let you supply your own parts (not saying they won't Tom just basing that my overall dealer experience).
Capital Cities is expensive but they have always treated me well.

I always forget that I don't do in shop diagnostic usually. That's how I stay away from the dealer. VAG-Com and solid research at Passatworld makes most work into service... |

Hey Santosh nice to see another Passat owner in the club!
Any mods?
What's the official B5 count for CA-VA now?
1. Nicole and I 2000 V6 Variant in Indigo Blue
2. Irish with a 2000 V6 Variant in Silver
3. B5Alive with 2001 1.8T sedan in Silver
I think CassB5 sold his off as he hasn't posted in ages... Any others?

No mods to my Passat other than cross-drilled rotors 2 years ago.
bought them off the internet and put by a local tirerack.com approved mechanic.
i think the cross-drilled rotors give better braking control.
the handling of the passat is great and the road-hug feeling is great,but it's maintenance costs are nothing short of a second mortgage!!!(kidding)

Hi,
Thanks to Chris at Nemer for taking excellent care of my car when doing the 60k service for my passat.
the performance of the car is like when i bought it 5 years ago!!
The entire experince was better than i ever had at Cooley where i bought the car.
They even fixed some issues that they came across and tried their best to find if the items were under warranty.
THANKS A LOT!!
