1995 VW Passat ignition condenser - Cambridge
Hello everyone,

My 1995 VW Passat 1.8 petrol engine has started interferring with the radio.
Does anyone know where the ignition condenser is? I can't find it!
Also, where is a good place to buy a replacement?

Thanks for you help.

Does this car have a wing mounted aerial? If so make sure its connection with the bodywork is good and there is no corrosion stopping the aerial earthing to the car body.

There's usually a suppressor fitted to the alternator if the interference is a VVVRRR type noise that increases with revs or if its tick, tick, tick increasing with revs then I'd suspect plugs leads.

Aerial would be my first port of call though

;O)

Follow Dox's sound advice; there's no ignition condenser - they disappeared around '75.
