Prius (2010-12) :: Squeaks And Other Noises Coming From Dashboard
I am having problems with squeaks and other noises from the dash. The dealer sprayed some foam on the dash board (underside of it) to quiet the noises. It didn't work. The repair order says he sprayed the air bag cover. I'm not an expert on air bags but would this effect the function of the bag?
View 7 RepliesTouareg :: Dashboard Squeaks / Car Tended To Pitch And Roll Over Rough Roads
Yesterday I took my beloved 2002 Passat wagon into the dealership for it's 25K maintenance. At each of my previous two visits for oil changes I had spent a little too much time admiring how sharp the Touareg was.
So far, with only a drive home from the dealership and a drive into work after dropping a very excited boy off at school, I love it. There is a whirring noise from what I hope are the new tires and the transmission is a little more "viscous" than I'm used to from the Passat-it too whirs a lot on slow accelerations and then whirs and shifts with "resistance" as I coast/decelerate.
It seems the all-wheel-drive sensation will take some getting used to although I test drove a 4-Motion once and didn't get the same impression. Other than that-seems great. Solid as a rock so far over rough roads-my Passat had developed some minor dashboard squeaks almost immediately and tended to pitch and roll over rough roads. The V6 definitely puts out some decibels on even mild accelerations but so did my 1.8T in the Passat. For the time being,
Camry :: 2007 - Dashboard Is Sticky
I just purchased a 2007 Toyota Hybrid in excellent condition except for a sticky dashboard. All the posts I have read said Toyota is aware but doing nothing about it. There are products advertised like Sticky No More but I am afraid to use it yet. The bright glare from the dash is a safety hazzard and I have notified NTSB about this to see if a recall may eventually be enacted..

Camry :: 2007 - Flashing Oil Pan Sign On Left Corner Of Dashboard While Braking
I have a 2007 camry LE with 60,000 miles. About 600 miles prior to the next due oil change, I started seeing a flashing oil pan sign on the left corner of the dashboard while braking (only while braking).
I did not figure out the reason and might have run another 100 miles before taken to the dealer. Dealer found no oil on dipstick. He says the engine might be burning oil and I might end up spending few thousand dollars in that case. He gave me a list of things to do for $1200 unrelated to the incident (break pads etc). I declined and got the oil changed.
He asked me to bring the car back in after 500 miles to check if the oil stays. There has been no leak. Now I have driven 150 miles and the maintenance required sign comes up. I have three questions:
(1) Can this maintenance required sign be related to the incident or related to the regular oil change schedule
(2) Could I have damaged my engine? If so, how to find out
(3) Why could the engine oil run out before the next scheduled maintenance?
Is it possible the technician might have not filled it up? (yesterday I checked the oil level (after 150 miles) and the level is well above the max needed).

View 14 RepliesChevrolet - Cavalier :: 2007 - Front End Squeaks And Creaks
I have recently made some repairs to my 2007 Chevy Cavalier LT AT/FWD/ABS/TRACTION CONTROL, has 60,000 miles. I replaced the stabilizer bar bushings, tie rod ends, control arms and sway bar end links then got an alignment. Later on a week later I changed the front brakes. The car felt good for 2 weeks after the suspension parts were replaced and a week after the brake job, then all of the sudden the car began squeaking and creaking on the front end.
Sometimes, the creaking and squeaking come when I turn, some times when I slow done and sometimes when I go from a stop to slowly speeding up (in forward drive or in reverse). I am puzzled as to what it could be. I just this evening sprayed some Blaster! Silicon Lubricant on the stabilizer bar bushings and control arm pivot rear pivot bushing.
The sounds seems not so loud now, but the squeaking and creaking are still there. Could be that where I sprayed was only where some of the noise was coming from. I suspect that the other squeaking and creaking could be coming from the strut bushings and/or strut bearing.
Lexus LS 2007+ :: Rough Ride - Squeaks On Every Bump Hit?
I have been experience some rough ride, and i am always in "comfort" mode for the air suspension. I have been changing the suspension over to "sport" for a mile or two then back into "comfort" and that seems to fix it for a day or so and then it goes rougher again.
I have also noticed when i am riding with the windows down that every time i hit a bump not only is there a jarring jolt, but also a squeak almost like a shriek that comes from presumably the suspension in the front ?
I would like to know if this is a sign of failing air bags, a bad compressor, bad sensors or even if the control arms are in question at this point. . .?

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Driver And Passenger Side Door Squeaks When Opening And Closing
My driver and my driver side passenger (slightly) door squeaks when I open and close it. I know it has to do with the door checks. The black plastic thing that holds the door open 1/4 or 1/2 way. I don't want to try something that might not fix it like greasing it. I don't want a glob of grease on there and it still squeaks. Is there a way to adjust it?

I have a 2008 600hl. It showed Hybrid system failure and I took it to the dealer last week. They said that the hybrid system charges well but the issue seems to be 12V battery. I got the car back and drove for 1 day, it stopped again at a major red light. This was a dead stop on Friday 5 pm peak hour traffic. My little daughter was sitting behind and so many cars came close to hitting us which made me mad at Lexus. Luckily I called cops and then they gave protection till it was towed.
All dashboard lights got on and it would show the following:
- Check Hybrid System
- Check Brake System
- Check VSC
Check Hybrid System is mainly a cell or module failure. If they at the dealership were able to charge the Hybrid System, does it mean it was working? Their health check showed 75%
- Since the car stopped abruptly at a stop light, if we were hit from behind, does Lexus/dealership have any liability? My major issue was that my daughter sitting behind does not get hurt.
Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: All Lights On Dashboard On
After rain my SF indicators in dashboard become crazy. Engine check, 4wd, reductor, TC stayed on when i start engine. Engine working is no good. I unplugged battery for 5 sec, and after that all is ok until next rain. If there is only one light on i know than there is a problem but 5 of them it looks like shortcut on some point.

Camry :: 2004 - No Shifter Lights On Dashboard
Kind of a strange thing happening. No prior work done on the car either. The morning was like any other morning. Car started up fine and the world was at peace. Drove to work and everything was awesome. I go to leave work after my shift and I notice that I have no shift indicator lights on the dashboard. Very odd, but I disregard it. No big deal. I also try to turn my cruise control on. The light for it turns on, but nothing happens.
Finished my shift at work. Drove home, and did some investigating. The reverse lights don't turn on as well, and the car doesn't start in neutral. I did some research on here and found that a neutral safety switch was a pretty popular part to fail to give no lights on the dash. So I worked up the courage to replace it with a BWD unit. Replacing the switch did nothing. Unplugged and replugged wires under the shifter, inspected a bit..... Nothing.
So what would be the next step? My car doesn't start in any gear besides park, Cruise control doesn't work, Reverse light doesn't work, Neutral safety switch as been replaced, And I guess that's it for the moment.
Prius (Gen 2) :: 2007 Dashboard Lights Went Off / Car Won't Shut
I have a 2007 Prius with 145,000 miles.
We drove for an hour and a half. No problems on the way there. When we left there, there were no dashboard lights. The screen worked fine. So did the headlights and turn signals. But, no speedo or other dashboard lights. I wasn't worried. I figured we blew a fuse so I am going to check in a few minutes.
But when we got home, I couldn't turn the car off. I pressed the On/Off button many times and nothing. I tried putting the key fob in the socket, and hit the button and it shut off.

Passat (B6) :: 2007 - Key Stuck In Dashboard Slot
2007 Passat Wagon 2.0T automatic. We found an extra key in the car after we bought it and saved it, thinking we could use it as a spare. Of course, we rather foolishly never tried it. Last night, my wife tried the key and it is now stuck in the key slot. The message center on the dash is giving a warning that the car is now immobilized, and it won't give back the key! I called VW roadside assistance, and they refuse to touch it - insisting it be towed to a dealer.
Unfortunately, the first two tow trucks they they dispatched couldn't tow the car. The car is stuck in Park, nose-in to the garage, and the steering wheel locked. Roadside assistance now says they need to dispatch a truck with "skates" which allow it to be put on a flatbed.
What else I could do to remove the key? I tried removing the battery power for five minutes, but it still won't give back the key.
Camry :: 2005 SE - Rattle In Right Side Area Of Dashboard
2005 Camry SE 4cyl 5 speed stick. 126k miles bought new well maintained with a minimum of problems. In the last couple of weeks a funny type of rattle has developed in the right dash area. Sounds like a snapping noise when I go over certain types of road imperfections. Almost like a loose small light bulb socket inside hitting something. Tried it with the glove box open no change. Can't see anything wrong behind the glove box where you change the cabin filter. No recent change in any control operation or electrical issues concerning the dash area.
