Check engine light and reduced engine power in VW Passat
Hello everyone, I have a VW Passat and recently the check engine light came on. I have also noticed a reduction in engine power. The error code I was able to read out is P065100. Does anyone have experience with this problem or can tell me what the cause could be and how I can fix it? Many thanks in advance!

The error code P065100 typically relates to an issue with the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) or the throttle actuator control. Start by checking the throttle body for any dirt or carbon buildup and clean it if necessary. This can sometimes resolve the issue. Let me know if this helps or if you have any further questions!
