Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2002 - Water Poured Out Of Top Gauge In Pillar Pod In Rain

We had almost 2 inches of rain in less than 20 minutes at 1:15, and at 2:00. I went to leave work and took a bath. Water poured out of the top gauge in the pillar pod. Where should I do a close look. Door seal, or windshield gasket?

I pealed back both at 2:45 and did not see anything on the top of the door seal. The top of the windshield gasket is a little open 4 inches in from the corner, but when i pealed it up a little it looked dry.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: 2008 - A Pillar On Driver Side Leaking During Heavy Rain

The A pillar on the driver side started leaking during a heavy rain. The water leak started where there is a seam on the A pillar. My RX stays outside and I would not surprised if a vent tube or hole has clogged up and thus made the water back up instead of draining but that is just a guess.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: Water Leakage On A Pillar Driver Side

Discovered a water leak on the A pillar driver's side (note right-hand drive)? We had a down pour today and my car has never exhibited this before. I got in my car today and noticed that there was a wet spot at the top and a wet spot under and to the side of the tweeter. This seemed to be quite soaked as pushing on it you could feel it was wet. I checked around the A-pillar and it goes up a little into the roof lining (about an 1/8th of the way on the top of the door ). Today , I heard a small gush of water, but that was about it. The car was on level ground. How do I take off the A-pillar so I can see if something has jammed up or something?

Prius :: 2010 - Water Leaking From Roof / Driver Pillar?

I have a 2010 Prius. After a heavy rain, sometimes but not always, water will drip from the front driver pillar and more recently from the roof immediately adjacent to the sunglasses holder. This happens usually after a turn or acceleration/ deceleration, i.e. when water trapped in the roof somewhere gets to slosh around. Before asking dealer to look into this (which I imagine will be expensive and not definitely rewarding),

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: 2007 - Water Coming Out Of SRS Button On Driver Side A-Pillar

2007 Sonata - Noticed some drops of water coming out of the SRS button on the driver side A-pillar. Is there a sunroof drain hose in that assembly behind the trim? Maybe clogged hose? Where that hose exits the body to drip water so I can check for clogs? And where the other three drain houses exit?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2000 - Sunroof Leak / Water Overflows The Tray Runs Down To Driver Side C Pillar

So as the title says the sunroof in my 2000 Jetta is leaking. I've taken down a, b, and c pillars, and the headliner. Poured water in the drain tray and no noticeable leak.. however when I spray it with the hose, the water overflows over the drain tray at the drain ends and into the car like Niagara falls. I've check all the connections, pinched open the plugs. I've already replaced the sunroof seal, which was noticeably shrunken. The new one fits snug all around but I'm still getting the leak. The water (from what i can tell) over flows the tray, runs down the headliner to the drivers side C pillar and then down into the trunk where the cd changer / safety kit was. I usually park uphill, and the one time I parked down hill and sprayed it with the hose the water was "Niagara falling" into my passenger seat.

Ford Audio/Video System :: Drain Tube On Right Front Kinked And Water Overflow Drip Tray On Sunroof And Down The A Pillar

I have an 09 f350 lariat with the factory 6 disc, sync system. Problem is the sunroof drain tube on the right front kinked and allowed water to overflow the drip tray on the sunroof and down the "A" pillar. The water then dripped onto the inertia fuel pump switch and then onto the sync module. I disassembled the module to dry and coat the circuit board with dielectric spray but one of the transistors is corroded and therefore the module is rendered useless. I have contacted the ford dealer for replacement module but no luck, even with the original part number on the sync module, or as ford calls it " Accessory Protocol Interface Module" My question is: can I get a module from another vehicle.

GTI 337/20th Anniversary :: Got CEL Caused By P0171?

Last night driving home my cel came on and I didn't hear anything off so I finished my drive home and scanned my car. The only code that came up was the p0171 code. I know it's a at system running lean code and I have looked and researched the issue. Some of the threads I've read have had bad endings, or this has caused their car to throw more codes the longer they drove it. I know about the maf sensor, checking for leaks, possible 02 sensor, things of that sort. My car is an 05 mk4 gli, apr stage 1, 007 dv, brand new n75, and brand new plugs/wires. Oil was also changed about 1000 miles ago. I'm trying to do this all myself if possible.

Golf/GTI VI :: B-Pillar Rattle In Particular

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: C-Pillar Won't Fit?

I went out to the jetta today to install the GLI c pillars I just bought and when trying to install them they don't fit? there's a large gap between the pillar and the headliner when the pillar is in the proper position.

I thought all the jetta pillars were exactly the same? are the gli pillars a different size/shape than normal jettas or jettas from an earlier year?

Touareg :: Rear Vents (B Pillar) No Air

While driving with a friend today he noticed no air coming out of the rear vents(the ones between the front and back door windows). We played around with all the controls and read the manual but nothing. Air was coming out the rear middle console.

Are these vents part of the four-zone option which I don't have or am I missing something

Golf IV R32 :: How To Remove A-Pillar Covers

The fabric has been falling off most of the interior pieces, so I figured I'd start with trying to reglue the fabric on the A-Pillars. I searched the topic & found threads that said to remove the airbag emblem by prying gently, then remove a screw behind that. So I gently remove the emblem & find I have snapped off the 2 posts holding it in place, & there is no screw behind the emblem. What is the removal procedure?

GTI 337/20th Anniversary :: Headlights / Windshield Wipers / Turn Signals / AC Fans Shut Off In Rain?

X2 nights ago at 11:45pm I was driving home from a friends house with my gf and were going about 65 on the highway and it's lightly raining, then all of a sudden my headlights, windsheld wipers, turnsignals, my ac/fans all just shut off so I had to pull over right away. After sitting there for about 15 mintues I figure out my high beams still work but only if I hold them on(clicking it on doesn't work. So I drive home and the next day check all the fuses in the drivers door and they r all fine. Everything else works in the car but the stuff stated above. My car was reposesd about a year ago when I lost my job and they put this thing I have to enter a code every month, it messed my windsheld wipers and turn signals up before but not anything else! But it still works and the other stuff doesn't, and behind the dash it sounded like crackling and smelt like burning electric right before it shut off.

Touareg :: Wind Noise From B-pillar Air Vent While AC On

Hearing the noise coming from B-pillar air vent on driver side while a/c is on? It's quite noticeable. While I'm at the topic of wind noise, do you also notice that when driving on a two-lane hwy, the wind noise leaks from the rear sunshade opening on the door panel when driving by the opposite traffic?

Golf/GTI VI :: B Pillar Creaks Noise And Rattles

On my 2 door GTI, I had 2 rattles. One was coming from the door latch mechanism, and the other was coming from the black plastic b pillar trim. I picked up a can of "Blaster" silicon spray from Home Depot and sprayed just a little bit into the latching mechanism (on the door side). So far this has completely eliminated the knocking noise that I would hear in the door when driving over bumps.

On my drive afterwards, I kept hearing the infamous noise from the b-pillar trim, which seems to be a result of heat expansion when going from cold temp.... how the piece would sit there creaking when the car wasn't even moving. Anyways, I sprayed some of the silicon lube onto a q-tip and applied it to the edge of the plastic b-pillar trim that runs along the inside edge of the door. I guess I put enough on the q-tip to get it inside the edge of the plastic where it touches the metal of the door.

So far, my car is quiet as a mouse. It feels so good to have my car sound like the day I drove it off the lot!

Disclaimer: It could be a coincidence and perhaps the b-pillar had finally warmed up to a temp where it stopped creaking on its own, but it DID stop creaking as soon as I drove off after applying the lube. I'll post back if anything changes.
