Touareg :: 2003 V10 Jammed Rear Window
Just got a 2003 Touareg V10 and have come home and the rear left window is jammed in the open position - no amount of button pressing will move it. It is now taped up until 2moro when I can get it to the garage.

1999 4.6 F150. So my truck is 2wd, and I have noticed that after about an hour of driving, and regular braking at turns and stop lights that between 25 and 55mph my rear end bounces like I am riding on speed humps. Not subtle at all. You can look in the rear view mirror and see the bed going up and down about 2". Feels like it has square tires if you know what I mean.
Anyway, I checked the rear brakes thinking maybe they are old and starting to stick. I have never smelled any brake burning, but I can only assume its the brakes because in that same hour the rear brakes develop an uneven feeling. I am sure you know what I'm talking about......when your brakes go bad you have that on/off brake feeling. Like surging I guess.
They are drums by the way. The shoes themselves don't look bad.....there is still meat on them. Maybe about an 1/8". No rivets showing or anything. The passenger rear shoe has one hairline crack at the top, but no other signs of damage.
Lastly, I checked the rear end and I wasn't sure what the margin of acceptable play is for in and out movement of the rear wheels. If I grab my tire I can push in and pull out with about an 1/8" of play......normal????
Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: 1999 XL 4X4 Run With Only Rear Gas Tank?
My 99 F150 with 200K miles, but running like new, dropped the rusted front gas tank today. I removed it and would like to use the rear tank which is almost new - put in last year.
Is it possible to make it go with only the rear tank? This is only a plow truck (no plates or insurance) just used in my driveway! Top speed for me 4 MPH. hOW TO BE able to get it to run with only rear tank?
Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: 1999 V6 4.2L - Rear End Shudder / Vibration
I have a 1999 F-150, 4.2L V6 with 206,000 miles that recently developed a rear-end shudder/vibration. According to my door jam axle code (27) and the axle tag (3 37), I have what appears to be a conventional rear differential, even though most of my research would indicate this rear-end is for the F-250. In any case, and based on other online research, I changed the differential oil with a 75W-140 synthetic and added 4oz of a friction modifier. Now the vibration appears to be worse. It primarily vibrates when taking off from a stop, whether turning or not.
I have felt the vibration at speeds up to 60mph, but it is more noticeable at lower speeds. The vibration also seems to diminish after driving the truck for longer periods of time, particularly if at highway speeds. In other words, when I drive to and from work, which is about 30 minutes each way of mostly highway, the vibration is barely noticeable once I exit the highway and slow back down to 35-40mph. When feeling the vibration, if I decelerate, the vibration immediately ceases, but starts again when I accelerate. It's not as noticeable if I accelerate harder, but I generally don't do that. The gears inside the differential didn't have any noticeable wear, chips or slop/play. What may be plaguing my usual trouble-free F150?
Ford Aerostar :: Small Rear End Collision Renders Door Jammed
My wife and I were rear ended over a year ago. Although the damage was mainly cosmetic to the bumper covering, it did cause a slight bend in the frame enough to prevent the rear door from opening. How to get this straightened enough to at least get the door to open and close.
My thoughts, the bend is not that severe it turns out, but I was thinking a torch at the point where the frame is bent and leverage pulling up on the bumper at each side.
Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: 1999 - White Light At Rear Won't Turn Off?
My buddy just purchased a 1999 F-150. He called me to complain that the white lights on either side of the high mount stoplight (above the rear cab window) won't turn off. Are these a bed light or a reverse light? If they are independent of the reverse lights, how do you turn them off?

2002 super crew. My key fob will unlock the doors but it will not lock the doors even though lights blink and horn honks like it is locked. Also on all doors the unlock buttons works but all of the lock buttons do nothing. At first I though just maybe had 1 bad lock but why would all the doors start doing this at once?..

2000 f150 supercab 4x4 offroad. Sometimes in a very strong wind, I get a lot of air noise around the doors which is up in the window area. I occasionally get it if I haven't got the back half door shut tight.
Just wondering if there is a way to puff up those door seals without replacing them? Inject them with something or use a hair dryer to heat them?

It was working fine then I drove on a 2 hour highway trip and now it will not open. This is the Xtra cab where you open the front door and then the rear from the inside. The door ajar switch is out. I suspect one of the latches is stuck. There is one on the top and one on the bottom of the door.

View 14 RepliesFord Excursion :: 2005 - Front Doors Near Lower End With Cladding Not Match Up With Rear Doors
I currently have an 05 Limited X and I've also noticed this on other 05 X's as well. The front driver and passenger side doors near the lower end with the cladding doesn't seem to match up with the rear doors. This goes for both driver and passenger front doors. I at first thought maybe it was just on the X I have but this is something I've taken notice of on just about all of the 05 Limited's I've looked at. What I'm referring to with the front doors being popped out a small bit and not matching up or being perfectly aligned with the rear doors?
I've had an 01 Limited and the doors wasn't anywhere near how mis-aligned they seem to be on the 05 Limited's. I haven't checked years between or XLT's. But on almost or pretty much all 05 Limited's I'm noticing this. Some are not as bad as others or as noticeable as others. But for some reason they all seem to pop out a little towards the bottom. When I speak of doors I'm referring to the doors itself, not the cladding/molding sticking out.

One of the rear doors on my Passat is jammed shut. If you lift the locking button it pulls itself back down and if you try to open the door from either inside or outside nothing happens, except lift the locking button up and down. I've taken the inside panel off as much as I can but don't know what to do now to open the door.
View 4 RepliesVolvo :: XC90 Rear (3rd Row) Seat Jammed And Will Not Fold Down
I've just bought a 2005 XC90 and one of the rear (3rd row) seats is jammed in the uprigh position and will not fold down. The problem is that the lever does not release the base of the seat to slide back.
I have tried poking my fingers in and have examined the side that is working to see how the mechanism works. It would appear that the catches at each side that hold the base of the seat in position do not swivel around enough when the lever is lifted up. I have tried lifting the lever as far as I dare but I'm worried that if I try any harder something will break.
Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: 1999 - Cabin Water Leak - Small Puddle In Driver Side Rear Floor Corner
My 1999 F150 Supercab has developed a water leak which I would like to ask your opinions on. Parked on a 20 degree incline during a pouring rain yesterday, I came out to find a small puddle in the driver's side rear floor corner and about an ounce of water pooled in a little lip at the bottom of the rear window in the right corner of the window! Haven't started tearing anything apart yet (and might not be able to myself), but it seems that it is possibly the rear window seal as the window and the outside body area appear to be in good shape otherwise (no visible rust, no seal obviously dislocated, etc).
Also, don't know if it's related, the other day I jacked up the truck with a floor jack under the front crossmember but a bit off center which caused the truck to twist a bit before both wheels came off the ground. While doing this, I heard and felt a loud bang like something broke in the frame! Couldn't see anything out of place and something similar has happened before where a lug of the jack cup had shifted slightly while jacking the vehicle and it caused a loud bang to be heard, but this time it didn't quite feel like it was at the jack but further back.
Could something have "broken" in the truck that I can't quite see and thus this leak has occurred which wasn't there previously or could it just be coincidence that the bang and leak occurred so close in time to each other. I know it's hard to diagnose something like this without seeing the vehicle or really know what happened but I just had to put it out there as part of the events that occurred within the timeline for this leak.
