First time VW owner - 2016 Passat SE TDi
Hi all
First time VW owner here. Just bought a 2016 Passat SE TSi for my son as his first car. My previous experience with VW’s was riding in my Dad’s beetle in the 70’s, it was about 10 years old and stank of vinyl.
I have a few questions (best way to get a replacement key and a manual) which I’ll post in the appropriate forum.
Plan to contribute here as we do stuff to the Passat. I have several community posts for my car over at Jaguarforums.

Thanks Keith!
I created a new thread for my questions in the appropriate forum: https://volkswagenforum.com/forum/vo...-manual-37995/
Sad to hear that keys are dealer only. $$$ I guess?
Regarding signature, I had created it before I posted, but it didn't get appended to my first post. I see it there in my subsequent posts. Maybe just takes time for it to work through the system.
Thanks,
Marc

My bad, it's a TSi not a TDi. I knew it was gasoline, just got the S/D letter wrong :-)
I have a sticker in the trunk, it looks a little different from the one in the other post. D6J and G1A are definitely in the cloud of part numbers, and then I used the part number code decoder to get those descriptions.
The line about eng/trans says: 125kW A6F CPK NTJ but those codes didn't come up in the part number decoder.
Let me know what should go in my signature and I'll put it there.
