Golf/GTI VII :: Drive Mode Settings No Longer Available

Started the car this morning and I noticed on the head unit that the drive mode selection wasn't showing "Comfort", "Sport" "Normal". When I press the mode button, the choices are faded and can't be pressed. Is this common? Something I've done?

Prius (2010-12) :: Dashboard Settings Shows Fuel Cost

In the dashboard settings, I set the miles to my previous vehicle. When I turn the vehicle off, it shows fuel cost. I could have swore that one of the vehicles we test drove showed an amount saved instead of pure cost, but for the life of me I can't locate this setting anywhere.

Passat (B6) :: Changing Gears Too Soon On Automatic Mode

About twice a year I am noting a too soon change of gears on automatic mode. This may be the fourth time it happens is just coming and going by itself.

I notice that when driving on constant traffic and going about 40mph I'm doing 5th gear so when traffic clears up I have to really step on the gas so car downgrades to catch up with traffic. What may be happening?

Camry 2012+ :: 2015 SE - ECO Mode / Throttle Response Way Numbed Down And Changes Gears Late?

I have the SE model and the only button i have is the traction control on/off button. I looked through the menu in the gauge cluster and I come across a "Eco mode indicator" on/off option. I turned it on and now the eco mode light engages when i drive.... I also noticed that the throttle response has been way numbed down and changes gears late. So basically the "indicator light" options is ACTUALLY the "eco mode".... why don't we have a button for this?

Caprice :: 1983 - Transmission Not Engaging Drive Gears

My transmission had no slipping was running fine . Oil level was ok , recently added 1/2 quart , cause it has some small leaks. I go to drive away other day and none of the drive gears or reverse would engage. Mechanic thinks transmission locked up . Kind of hard to condemn my old baby considering it was running fine .

Would the TCC solenoid do this or the ECU ? I recently reinstalled the bar going to starter that was disconnected for 5+ years because i was having slow crank issues. This transmission problem occurred 2 days later. I am thinking it might have made the ECU unit go bad , since the starter had not a good ground for so long ?

Nissan - Sentra :: Changing Gears From Reverse To Drive

My wife always chastises me for not coming to a complete stop from backing up before I shift the car into drive. I do not shift when the car is still moving more than 1-2 MPH, in fact it is barely moving when I change gears. My wife insists that I come to a complete stop and wait 1-2 seconds before shifting from reverse to drive. She is convinced that I am doing damage to the transmission the way I shift. I insist that no damage is being done and point out that with over 100,000 miles there have been no transmission problems with the car. Am I damaging the transmission by shifting before I come to a complete stop in reverse?

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Truck Recently Started Sounding Like Trying To Shift Into 4X4 Mode While Driving - Gears Grinding

At a loss right now. My 2004 F150 4X4 and just recently started sounding like the truck is trying to shift into 4X4 mode while driving it. It stops if it's switched into 4X4. I have taken it to a local mechanic shop I use and they said it was the Actuators and they replaced those. I got it back and the same day the noise came back. Took it back and they have had it for another week and still unable to figure it out. I even took it to another shop that was highly recommended and they say to take it to a Ford dealership. I have read that some say it could be the vacuum operated hubs? Need to figure out what it was and had it fixed?

Dodge - Dakota - Transmissions :: 1991 Truck Will Go Into Reverse But Will Not Go Into Drive Or Any Of Other Gears

The truck will go into reverse, but will not go into drive or any of the other gears. When shifted into one of those gears, it just idles as though in neutral. This started as I was driving down the highway at approximate 70mph. The speedometer jumped up then fell to zero as the car slowed to a stop. There was no noise except the sound of rapid fuel intake and then it went to idling. I have been told it may be a speed sensor, but I was wondering if there was anyway to confirm that before I have the truck towed down to a mechanic and find out its more than I want to pay to fix it.

Ford 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003) :: 4R100 No Drive - All Gears Lost

Driving along today my trans started doing some weird stuff. It lost all gears. Forward and reverse. If I turned the truck off and let it sit a while it would go again for awhile then loose drive again. When I got home I checked fluid level and did KOEO o/d off and back on. I drove it around the block and it seemed ok, so I went on my way. After about 20 min I noticed the OD light flashing. I checked codes and It had P1754-ccs.
