    Camp Alltrack 2.0 - WATERPUMP FAILURE

    So with the OG camp Alltrack written off, it’s time for the redux.





    Below is the Link to my old B7 thread for reference. I’m looking to go down a similar path with the B8.

    First thing will be to check the old 16” wheels with AT tyres are ok to fit.
    The current gen Alltrack only have down to 17” wheels. The spare in the B7 was a 16” so I got away with using that size alloy as a match to the smallest OEM size available.

    B7 used a 225/45/18
    B8 uses a 245/45/18

    Previous owner had fitted 245/45r18 100w Kuhmo ecsta 4xii M+S only 4000km ago whicha re in very good shape so I won’t be rushing out to replace them just yet with the 16” ATs

    In the interim I’m looking at getting this kit from the USA to lift the Passat 1”. The BES (Bearded elevation system) designed for the Golf Alltrack. The B7 Passat wasn’t compatible but the B8 is MQB platform so this is a pretty nifty setup to get some height. Around $650 shipped from the creator in Pennsylvania.

    Camp Alltrack 2.0

    Thinking about these wheels



    But in 18” size so the current M&S rated tyres fitted on the OEM rims can be reused (they are almost new rubber) there’s a nice clean set available locally second hand.

    FYI I’ve found an interesting site that you can purchase used rims from Japan at a pretty low price (not sure what shipping would cost though)

    Yes their 19 x 8.5" the cars stance looks good with them. That way I can't scratch the originals

    Nice! I’m in the market for one of these at the moment - how do you find it? If you’re willing to share what you paid I’d love to chat over DM

    Look forward to seeing what you do with it. I love what you did with your B7!

    Loving the upgrade from the B7 $36k onroad with 44k on it.
    Spec’d with the luxury pack and pano roof. (Maybe the same pack)
    Has the park assist, heated massage memory seats, cornering lights etc.
    I would have preferred a lighter colour like our old one but this was too good a deal to pass up. Full service history, new tyres at 41k and very clean. There is not a single mark on the wheels, couple of tiny door dings. But the one thing I do miss is the paddle shift.

    Looks the goods! Congrats - sounds like a great deal. Didn't realise they don't have paddle shifters - that's unfortunate as it's nice to have the option to shift down a gear.
