Volkswagen Passat OBD-II support
Model years 1988 to 2026CombustionOnboarded
49,457 miles driven with Pelican by 92 drivers
The OBDb lists 729 parameters for the Volkswagen Passat, read from 12 control modules. Real responses from Volkswagen Passat cars confirm 717 of them. Drivers have tested model years 2006, 2008, 2011 to 2013, 2015 to 2020, 2022.
Support by model year
A solid mark means a real response confirmed the parameter. A light mark means the car's signalset reads it but no response has confirmed it yet.
Parameters
The parameters of the Volkswagen Passat, by group. These are the commands that Volkswagen added, and the SAE J1979 standard parameters that real cars confirm. Open a group to see each parameter, how Pelican decodes it, and the model years that real cars confirm.
