The year 1996 was a special sensation for Volkswagen fans. During this period, the fifth generation of this brand of car with a sedan body, which was factory marked B5, saw the light. car opened new stage in line history. With the release of modern generation, the German manufacturer decided to seriously approach the category Vehicle luxury class.

Volkswagen Passat B 5 became more technologically advanced, and also approached prestigious cars in its status. To ensure a solid level of technical performance, the main parameters were:

• powerful engines;
• excellent handling;
• comfortable salon;
• solid interior and exterior;
• high level of reliability.

The Audi A4 autocar was used as a platform for creating the fifth generation. The aluminum front suspension was borrowed from him, as well as the location of the power units of the longitudinal type. The body of the new German car model provided an excellent level of safety and low aerodynamic drag.

Already in next year Passat expected modernization. In 1997, the car was released with all-wheel drive, and in 2000, Volkswagen underwent a planned restyling. The main objective of the modernization was to increase engine power and improve environmental performance.

This Passat model marked the transition to a new design solution. It was demonstrated on a special Concept One uniform. The new generation of Volkswagen can be described as a large representative of the luxury class, which looks somewhat contradictory. This is due, in particular, to a low-level, streamlined outline with small-sized optics on the front and rear. It is because of this that the car has an uncharacteristic appearance.

Initially, the B5 was offered in two body styles. The first of these was a sedan, and the second was a station wagon. The main parameters of the model:

• length - 4669-4704 mm;
• scale in width -<1740 мм;
• height - 1460-1499 mm;
• the distance from the ground to the bottom of the car is 110-124 mm.

Regarding the interior, it is worth noting its solidity and representativeness. The instrument panel is equipped with two large dials. Between them is the information display of the trip computer. The steering wheel has a rex-spoke design, as well as the brand's emblem.

The interior decoration of the German representative is made of quality materials, including:

• plastic;
• decorative inserts;
• leather.

Car seats have a wide profile and a decent range of adjustment. They are perfect for people of all sizes. Luggage compartment AT 5 designed to carry 475 liters of luggage. If you fold the backrest - 745 liters.

Model equipment

The fifth generation car has a rich basic package. Most experts questioned the strict interior of the model, which does not differ in design solutions. However, the classics, combined with the quality of performance, as well as practicality, appealed to many. In addition, Volkswagen's ergonomics and noise isolation were not in doubt.

The car has a significant capacity, which allows you not to feel cramped while in it. However, the owners of this model note several shortcomings. First of all, these are not the appropriate dimensions of the rear-view mirrors. Many point out that the limited view in the fifth generation models causes some inconvenience. In addition, the disadvantages include problems with the central lock (only encountered in the station wagon modification) and insufficient heating of the seats.

However it is worth noting the modified suspension and modern electronic devices . Basic equipment B5 consists of:

• 4 airbags;
• electropackage;
• climate control;
• tinted windows;
• adjustable driver's seat.

In addition to the basic one, three more variations are offered to choose from Comfortline, Trendline and Highline.

Power units

The fifth generation engine line has always been the pride of this brand. Volkswagen Passat B5 was equipped with both diesel and gasoline power units. The most popular are:

In addition, the manufacturer offers three variations of the gearbox: five- and six-speed manual type, as well as automatic. The fifth generation is significantly different from the previous one. Good handling of the model, according to experts, is achieved due to the multifunctional front suspension.

The appearance of the B5 is solid and dynamic. The round shape of the rear lights complements the sporty look of the car. The interior is equipped with many decorative panels "under the tree", as well as details of leather and chrome steel.

Specifications Passat B5

The fifth generation of Volkswagen is still a popular model today. Even despite the considerable age of the car, it remains in demand even now. Before the advent of this model, the Passat really belonged to the group of simple cars.

Equipping with advanced electronics and the presence of other technologically sophisticated details makes the choice to be taken with particular seriousness. In this case, the following is taken into account:

• tuning costs;
• the need for testing;
• repair B5;
• prices for auto parts;
• the state of the unit;
• possible breakdowns.

As for the body characteristics, the body of the car is completely galvanized. The presence of rust indicates poor-quality restoration of the coating after an accident. The German manufacturer gave a guarantee on the body - 12 years. The fact shows that its resistance to corrosion remains at its best. . For German cars, this has already become a tradition.

What's inside?

Under the hood of this model, you can find one of six gasoline-type units. For this brand, a five-cylinder V-shaped engine with a volume of 2-3 liters was offered. Its power is 150 hp. with., and also 250 Hm of the maximum moment. The category of four-cylinder units consists of atmospheric and turbocharged engines. Their volume varies from 1.6 to 2 liters with a generation of 101 -150 horsepower. The rotational thrust of the unit ranges from 140 to 220 Hm.

The leading position is occupied by a 2.8-liter engine that develops 193 horsepower. The torsional thrust of the unit is 290 Hm. The vehicle was equipped with a front-wheel drive transmission by default. In addition, the 4Motion technique was available. Passat of the fifth generation to the first 100 km / h accelerates from 7.6 to 15 seconds, depending on the modification. The maximum speed of the model is 177–238 km/h.

The B5 is based on the PL45 platform, the power unit of which is located longitudinally. The steering system is equipped with power steering, and the brake package includes full disc brakes. It is worth noting that in front they are equipped with ventilation. The rear suspension is represented by a semi-independent scheme, which is equipped with a torsion beam on machines with front-wheel drive, and with a full one - an independent "multi-link". The front is a two-lever design.

The main advantages of the model

The owners of the Volkswagen Passat B5 describe the model as a car with a stylish design that has a roomy interior and a robust design. Maintenance of a representative of the fifth generation costs an adequate amount. It should be noted that the vehicle also has:

• a large compartment for luggage;
• optimal fuel consumption;
• high level of sound insulation;
• quality finishing materials.

The suspension for domestic roads turns out to be quite stiff, and there is also a small clearance to the roadway. The interior of the cabin creates a feeling of high cost and chic, it seems that the B5 is a class higher than it really is. Passat stands out from its competitors. This is due to the solid interior and a large selection of additional equipment.

The gasoline units of the model are equipped with a distributed injection system, and the diesel itself is equipped with TDI communication, which is equipped with pump injectors. Car engines remain quite worthy and reliable to this day. As a rule, malfunctions occur as a result of improper operation, as well as untimely maintenance.

Maintenance

In accordance with factory standards, it is worth changing the oil every 15,000 km along with all filters. However, domestic experts advise to carry out the procedure after 10,000 km. The functioning of the turbine, as well as the smooth functioning of all parts of the unit, directly depends on the quality of the oil, so it should only be synthetic.

• type of built-in engine;
• technical condition of the unit;
• forms of driving a car owner.

The average engine consumption of the most popular unit is 1.8T, which is 15-16 liters in urban conditions.

Immediately after purchase B 5 it is recommended to replace the timing belt. According to the regulations, the procedure is performed every 120,000 km. This must be done to ensure safety. On many machines, the readings of the ordometer do not correspond to the real mileage, so one can only guess about the real numbers.

Possible problems

During the operation of the vehicle, breakdowns and malfunctions often occur. In the category of malfunctions and possible problems of the fifth generation Passat, first of all, it is necessary to include suboptimal engine idling. This error is actually very easy to fix. The main cause, as a rule, is a clogged throttle valve.

In addition, almost every 50,000 km, the water fuel pump fails. This is due to the use of poor quality antifreeze, which destroys the pump seal. However, the most vulnerable point of the B5 motor is the turbine. In order to prolong its service life, the engine should be idling for several minutes before turning off the car.

If we consider diesel units, then most of the breakdowns of gasoline engines are not characteristic of them. But in this case, you can not do without trouble. The main faults are:

• rapid wear of the pipe;
• breakdown of antifreeze;
• inflatable valve failure;
• compression drop.

The most serious malfunction is considered to be a breakage of the tension roller. . This leads to a break in the timing, as well as friction of the valves on the pistons.

What is the result?

Manufacturers AT 5 represent the brand as a national brand. However, the pricing policy of parts is not at all democratic. This could be expected, since the mechanism of the car is quite complex in technical execution. The fifth generation Volkswagen Passat is a fairly common brand, so there are no problems with spare parts, which is good news.

Model B5 is a direct result of the achievements of the German holding. Summing up, we can say that this is one of the best cars in the history of Volkswagen. The main advantages of the vehicle include:

• high level of reliability;
• excellent handling;
• high-quality trimmed salon;
• high marketability.

Basically, all breakdowns and malfunctions occur due to the fault of users, as well as improper maintenance and untimely replacement of components. As mentioned above, it is TO that plays the main role.

What do we end up with? The fifth generation Volkswagen Passat is a reliable, comfortable and high-quality car, the price of which remains quite reasonable. For many years in a row, he holds the position of the best family car. Among the huge number of foreign cars, even today it is distinguished by its presentable appearance. This is a car that is really worth the money.
