2005 VW TDI is still a 1.9L PD motor is it not? That said, I don't think you will be lucky with that but I could be wrong.

i thought it was a 1.9 liter but the dealership said it was a 2.0 liter and buckshotmuckee said it was too. i dont understand why they made a bigger motor for the passat since it only has like 20 more horsepower than 1.9 liter so i dont know. just looking to make more power and smoke.

2005 Passat IS a 2.0 134HP Diesel. I haven't been able to find custom tune type software like EFI for any of the VW TDIs.

EFI Live started out as a Corvette tuning software. But since all gms run the same processors/ecms for their vehicles...they could tune the ecm of the dmax as well.
