So it seems the Passat has succumbed to the washer pipe leak in the rear roof lining issue, which means a garage fix.
It is only 5 years old FFS how crap must the routing be for this to be a semi common fault.
Can’t get it in until next week so currently trying to dry the affected area, roof lining and boot out in the hope the alarm and lock can be persuaded to work without the alarm going off all night.
Anyone experienced this? Presumably if I can get the headlining and the connector dried out gravity will stop any more leakage until I can get the ******* trim and headlining dismantled and the offending bits replaced? If not i need to find somewhere to secure the car for a few days…
