Passat (B6) :: What Does The Code P2243 Mean
Nov 7, 2009
Well this car is getting ridiculous. i just got it back from the dealership 3 weeks ago from having them fix the car when the check engine light came on because some pressure valve that is supposedly in each cylinder or something was bad.
Well now, its on again. I took it to autozone but when the guy put his scanner on there, nothing came up. So when I started the car as the scanner was plugged in, he said it gave him the code P2243. He did not know what the code was. The engine light is now off and the guy did not clear the code. The car still rides normal.

My 2.0t threw a MIL with code P0441 about 24 hours after having the timing and all replaced. I replaced the N80 valve last week, but this did not make the light turn off.
I also have a hard time starting after filling up. What this might be?

Dealer says the "gas cap" code keeps coming up. Won't share the number with me.... I've tried two new OEM gas caps, fuel & air filter replacement. I keep paying to get it reset. It keeps coming back on. Clueless VW mechanics... What else it might be?

I have finally installed HID, but I tend to think they pointed too low, or it is just my imagination. Need to change the level after installing HID? Second and most important Question, the thing is that after removing the + from Battery, I have reset the settings now car shows trouble codes for g85 I guess the steering column. That it is not calibrated right, the code applies for ABS and 44-Steering Assist, I might have messed up the options, but I strongly believe it might be fixed without dealership. When the car starts it shows, ESP off and steering column yellow all the time.

The 1.8 passat turbo has 60k miles on it.
CEL is on, shop says it is code P0299 (I have read this code being called the "underboost" code). Local shop also wanted $1500++ to put on a new turbo. Car is driving and responding just fine.
I have searched high and low and can't find definitive answers to these questions.
I have read some posts indicating that replacing the Waste Gate Valve has improved performance and turned off the CEL. Can you replace this valve on the 1.8 without replacing the whole turbo?
Where is this valve in the engine compartment? Can I just clean it? CEL code 0299, car behaving normally, shop telling you that your need to replace the turbo?

I am having a misfire code on the #1 cylinder. Its not bad but I really want to nip it in the butt before it goes out completely. I was told to try and get some of the older style coilpacks that bolt on and go with them. Can I put them on my 03 passat 1.8t.

While on business travel, my wife's 2003 1.8T Passat wagon had the MIL illuminate. I had her pull the OBD2 code while I was away, and it came up with P0420. I have been reading up on it, but I have found much in the way of troubleshooting this code. I don't want to just start randomly replacing parts until the light goes away. When I get back I am going to look for exhaust leaks, but barring those what else can be looked for.

Car was purchased new and has been great (O2 sensor was replaced a few years ago and something to do with breather valves due to it making a high pitched scream when the turbo wasn't trying to kick in) for the past 80K miles. Got a Check Engine Light yesterday and took it to Autozone to have them pull the codes (I was really hoping it was the "Hey idiot, time for your 80k maintenance") and they found a P0170 Bank 1 Cylinder 1 Too Lean (by their version of reading it at least). Probable causes: MAF, Vacuum or O2 Sensor.
Nothing that seems immediately life threatening so off to work in the morning. I noticed that it was running a little rough at idle and at speed when coming off the gas. Plus it did the old 2 or 3 extra turns after shutting it off.
The Probable causes line up with what I'm reading so I'm planning to pull and clean the MAF sensor when I get home tonight. Next up is probably replacing O2 sensors from what I gather. Although If i have time tonight I may pull the airbox(?)/Engine cover off and eyeball every hose I can lay eyes on as well as the Air Filter, etc.
What am I missing? Does the rough running and running a second or 2 after shutting it off add anything to the potential diagnosis?

Just wondering if I will know via a check engine light if when my Diverter valve may act up. I don't really want to add a boost gauge if I can let the onboard diagnostics do the work for me. So if I loose boost will I know?

2001 Passat 4motion V6. Engine check light on steady, OBDII says P0118, which should be Engine Coolant Temperature Circuit High Input . What does that mean? Everything else seems normal on the car. Coolant temperature seems to warm up and stays normal. If someone says coolant temperature sensor, can I get a diagram showing where it is in the engine compartment?

It happened to passat. Once I hit about 75mph on highway I get a stop engine (oil presser low light). It flashes than goes off once I lower my speed. I checked all fluids are normal. It throws a 12 code an says oil passage blocked, cam positioning sensor, skipped timing chain. These are what the code says could be wrong with it. The car runs fine with no hesitation at idle or normal city driving. I have already flushed the oil with cleaner, and still getting the light.

I need to order some touch-up paint for my 2014 platinum grey metallic SE. I'm told I need to find the paint code even though I know the name of the color. Where to find this on the car? Also, where to get touch-up paint? I know I can get it from the dealer, but perhaps it's less expensive elsewhere and/or better quality.

I was able to borrow an OBD-II scanner to read the error code(P1818) currently displayed. I was wondering if the P1818 Error Code is related to a faulty Transmission Control Module (TCM).
