NOTE:
The Passat 2015 and Passat Wagon 2015 with a Biturbo engine are not flushed. The amount of work to remove the expansion valve is too excessive. If there is A/C compressor damage, check whether there are shavings in the condenser and whether there are shavings on the condenser output. If there are shavings on the input and not on the output, then only the condenser and A/C Compressor need to be replaced.
