Golf V R32 :: Fuel Level Sensor Failure / Gauge Went To Zero

In the last 24 hours my fuel level sensor is failing intermittently. After filling yesterday the fuel gauge went to zero and the MFD read "---" for any range or fuel calculations. Rebooted the car ( ) and it came back on, then off again. today it seems to be working, but I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Pressure Sensor Won't Warn Unless It Drops Below Low Level

I have aftermarket wheels and the tire pressure sensors have been transferred over. Since I went from the stock 17" wheels to 20" wheels, I had to increase the tire pressure from 32 to about 38.

1) I'm assuming that since the pressure is now higher with the 20" wheels, the tire pressure sensor won't warn me unless it drops below a really low level (maybe somewhere around 28 psi). Is there any way I can set a higher threshold so that they come on at around 36 psi?

2) The tire shop that installed the wheels transferred over the sensor, but I'm not sure if they actually work since the warning light has ever came on. Do I need to take the car to the dealership for them to start working again?

Based on the my research, some people are saying that only the dealer can reset the TPS so they can start working again. Others are saying that I can reset it myself, but does this reset actually raise the threshold?

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: How To Replace Brake Fluid Level Sensor

Just bought a 2007 supercab with the 5.4 in nice shape, but have an intermittent brake light on the dash. (No ABS, just the brake light.) Our mech. diagnosed a bad Brake Fluid Level switch. I can get a new sensor. I'd like to try and replace this myself and save a lot of money if it's not too difficult.

I'm looking for some clear step-by-step directions on doing this, and have a couple of questions:

Do I need to disconnect the battery first?

Do I need to empty the brake fluid reservoir? (Looks like the sensor is in the bottom of the reservoir, if I take it out without draining res, will I have a mess?)

When looking up the sensor online, I also saw the plug/connector for sale, should I replace that as well?

Ford 6.0L Power Stroke Diesel :: Brake Fluid Level Sensor

About a week after my wreck I got the Parking brake light and the message brake fluid level low. The fluid level is fine and I read some other threads where people said the vacuum system was connected somehow. I knew the ESOF didn't work so I replaced the broken line and nothing changed, except the ESOF works now.

Anyway I can't for the life of me find a replacement sensor, part number or anything.

Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Fuel Level Sensor - Gas Gauge Started To Fluctuate From Full To Empty

2008 hyundai santa fe. 106,000

Bought the car six months ago.Found out 2 weeks later we couldn't put gas in it. Dealership refused to fix it because we bought as is. So we managed to find one gas station in a 20 Mile radius that we could put gas in it.It takes around 10 minutes to put half a tank in. Shortly after that the gas gauge started to fluctuate from full to empty. And the check engine finally came on. Had the the check engine light checked.Fuel level sensor A was faulty. Took it to a local Goodyear in stead of the dealer ship. The sensors were 119.00 a piece and the labor was 145.00 to replace both. Had both replaced .Fuel gauge is working correctly now. But still having issue putting gas in car.

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Install 65 Gal Titan Tank Level Sensor Not Working?

Installed a 65 Gal Titan Tank the other day. I Finally got a chance to fill her up all the way.. well as much as i could.

My Level sensor is not functioning and I was only able to put in a total of 160 Liters when it should have been right around 246L.

My question is this : I need to syphon my tank now. Is there anything preventing me from doing that or will a 1/2 hose work?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: F350 Diesel - CEL Came On - Fuel Level Sensor Code

We just bought and '05 F350 Turbo Diesel, about two days after getting it the check engine light came on. We had the dealer check it since the mechanic wasn't in and it came up as "Fuel Level Sensor" . My husband can't remember the exact code. We have been told it's no big deal but we want it fixed and the engine light to go off. The dealer is giving us the runaround, or at least I think so.

Lumina :: Low Coolant Light Goes On - Coolant Level Sensor?

On Sunday I'm driving to the store my LOW COOLANT light goes on. So I buy some coolant. I get home let the car cool off and check my radiator, it is full. My coolant recovery tank is also at the proper level.

Been three days already checked levels again and I'm not losing any coolant.

What the car is NOT doing:

1. Not losing fluid

2. Not running hot

I'm thinking coolant level sensor?

Golf IV R32 :: Cam Position Sensor Or Engine Speed Sensor?

I took the car out for a little spin about 8 miles. We where about .5 of a mile from the house and there is a section where you have to stop on a little bit of a hill. I stalled the car due to the new Dm clutch then headed to the house and the car started to run like crap. I hooked up VAGCOM and had this code:
17748.P1340 camshaft position sensor-G40/ Engine speed sensor-G28: incorrect allocation(#1)

I swapped out the 2 cam position sensors and cleared the code and started the car and it still ran like crap. I just happen to have a new Cam position sensor(hall sensor) so I swapped it out in both cam positions one at a time and cleared the code and the car still runs like crap.

Is there a way to check(test) with vagcom to see if its one of the engine speed sensors?

Lexus RX 2010-15 :: A/C Blows Cold Air At Bi-level Only At Chest Level

I noticed yesterday while driving the RX (not my daily driver) that when I turned on the A/C to bi-level (chest & feet) it only blew cold air at the chest level while at the feet level it was warm air. If I remember correctly from the past that the feet got cold too so I tried it with the vents only at the feet, still warm air. I even checked to make sure that I didn't have it on bi-level with defroster in use.

Golf/GTI VI :: Low Oil Level / Tripping EPC?

Basically, when my oil level in my GTI gets too low, I notice that it'll trip the EPC light depending on how low the engine senses the oil to be, and sometimes it'll cut power to my car. every time I get an oil change and I'm topped off, it runs perfectly fine, it's only when the oil level I guess gets too low. I don't know really how the two are connected.

Golf/GTI VI :: 2013 - Oil Level Usually At From The Factory?

My 2013 gti has 2077 miles on it. Today I pulled it into my bay at work and checked its oil level while cold, it was at the min line. After my ~ 15 minute drive home i checked it again, and it was about 1/3 up between min and max...... Are they typically at "max" from the factory, or just varying in between? This is the first time I've checked the oil in it since i got it...

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Level Fine But Oil Light Has Come On

So I was waiting in line at a drive through, because Fast Food is the breakfast of champions. And suddenly my Oil Light started blinking. It beeped, then blinked. It didn't stay on solid.

So I figured I was suddenly low on oil. I then noticed my engine temp was pegged to the max. So I abandoned my Egg McMuffin (Not an easy choice by the way) and I pulled out of line into a parking spot and shut down my engine.

I gave it a few moments to cool down and checked the oil level. In the past my oil light has come on if I was low on oil and a 1/2 quart or so was all I needed. But after 20 minutes of cooling down, I checked the oil level and it was fine. Not even close to low.

I made some calls, talked to some people, ate a McMuffin and checked the level again. It was still good. So I restarted the car now that it was totally cooled down. It warmed up fine, right to normal temp, no overheating, no oil light and all seemed well. So I drove it home (About 12 miles) without issue.

Also, Prior to this issue (within a couple months) I switched to Synthetic Blend. And it may just be a coincidence, but my AC also failed about 3 days ago.
