There may not be any other way to fix it except to replace your instrument panel. That's where your immobilizer is located. Or you could try this:

Try cold-booting the car. Remove both battery cables from the battery. Short the battery cables together (away from the battery) for about 15 seconds. Reconnect the battery. No guarantees - I found this info at tdiclub.com.

SOURCE: Air-conditioning not icy cold inside my VW Passat TDI 1996

chances are if you system was serviced by modern equipment then they would have pulled a vacuum before recharging .. that would eliminate moisture in the system .. the evaporator is inside your heater box .. you cant see it .. the condenser is the radiator like device in front of your engine cooling radiator ..

if the system is changed properly and still does not work or works intermittantly . then there is a good chance that the air conditioner clutch electronic module is bad .. thats a relay like device located on the drivers side behind the dash .. you have to snap off the dash side panel .. its normally hidden by the door .. inside that is the fuse panel and behind that is the relays/electronic modules .. the one that operates the air conditioner clutch is marked 384 .. there are other possibilities depending on your a more precise description of the problem ..

SOURCE: VW passat coolant warning light on

There's a level sensor plugged into the bottom of the coolant reservoir. Unplug it and clean the contacts with electrical contact cleaner. If that doesn't do the trick, replace the sensor.

SOURCE: loud rattling noise coming from the engine

Are you losing power as well? if so it sounds like the camshaft is worn, this can be confirmed with a compression test

I HAVE A VW PASSAT 2005 TDI, WHEN I START THE CAR IT REVS UP AND THEN STOPS, ILL HAVE TO DO THIS SEVERALL TIMES TO GET IT STARTED. PLEASE HELP!!

this could be the engine speed sensor it sees your RPM's but it could obviously be seeing them wrong. Look how to get "error codes" on your car. on my vw it was basic as long as you follow the instructions there is a set of four numbers or flashes of your check engine light mine was 2-1-1-1

I have a VW Passat Trendline TDI 1896 Made 2005. I know it has an alarm but not sure if it has an immobiliser. Do they come as standard on this model? Handbook not around and need to renew insurance!

it should havea key with a transponder chip which is the factory immobiliser.your key has been coded/programed to your vehicle only,no other key will start your car.
