Golf VI R :: Wet Squeaky Slippery Pedals
This has been annoying me a little bit. When I get in my car when it's been raining, I try to wipe my shoes off on the carpet before touching the pedals but all it takes is little bit of water. i hate the squeaking and my foot has slipped off the clutch a few times.

So I'm approaching my first service interval and I'm wanting the dealer to check out a few minor issues I've been having with my GTI. Namely, a squeaky sunroof when it's cold out, slight vent fan rattle, and the occasional "fish bite" from the engine. I've already talked to the dealer and told them of the issues and they seemed reluctant to give me a loaner if the car takes longer than a day.
View 6 RepliesLexus LS 2007+ :: 2008 - Brake Pedal Clicking Noise When Pedals Are Cold?
I have a 2008 LS460. I have a clicking noise coming from the brake pedal area. It happens in the morning when the brakes are cold. I had the same problem when the car was new, and Lexus put in a new actuator. It was ok for about 6 months, and started clicking again. Maybe 3 or 4 soft clicks when I push lightly on the brake pedal. Every time I take it in to Lexus, they say it has the new actuator, and the noise is so soft that they act like they can't hear it. The car is so quiet otherwise, that to me the clicking is very annoying. I have called Lexus corporate, to no avail. Sounds to me that they have a problem they don't want to admit.
View 9 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: Grinding Noises And Getting A Ton Of Vibration In The Pedals
My R has recently started making some horrible grinding noises and was getting a ton of vibration in the pedals. I let it sit after I got home that night and made an appointment for vw. Blah blah blah
It turns out the previous owner had an aftermarket clutch installed in the car, and the flywheel and clutch were reinstalled with all hardware finger tight. I drove the car for a yaer and a half, 30k, without knowing until the sound started.
Ive been told the clutch is now destroyed and warranty wont cover it. VW says I need a new flywheel and clutch kit. Since they aren't covering it, I am thinking maybe upgrades are in order.
Should i stay with oem flywheel and clutch? Or go with a lightened flywheel and stage 1 clutch etc. Is it worth it to upgrade?
Mods are c2 race file, evoms cai, koni coils, usp hi flow cats in the test pipe, short throw kit. I will have cams installed at some point and it might see sc down the road. No turbo or big hp.
Golf IV R32 :: Water On The Floor Behind Driver Seat Or Down By The Pedals After Rain?
After heavy rains there has been water on the floor behind the drivers seat or down by the pedals (depending on how the car is parked). Is this the result of a bad door seal? It definitely seems to be coming in around the door.

View 9 RepliesTouareg :: Car Pulling To The Right And Brakes Are Squeaky
I'd like to write them and open a dialogue about my minor problems before I see the dealer for my 5,000 service. Specifically, I have already complained to the dealer twice about the car pulling to the right and the squeaky brakes. While I know these are minor issues now, I would rather have a VW approved plan of action in hand before the dealer tells me there is nothing they can do about my problems. I realize this may be a futile effort but I like to document things.

View 24 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: Weird Howl / Vibration Transmitting Through The Pedals And Steering Wheel
Tried to do some searching regarding this and info was pretty thin. When I'm up at highway speeds there is an obnoxious howl transmitting through the steering wheel. On occasion it will go away but it's generally there. There is some vibration coming through and it's driving me absolutely nuts - it almost makes the car feel overweight and sluggish, but that may just be in my head.
I had 4 new tires put on and an alignment done around 3 weeks ago, so it shouldn't be related to that. I was told that my right rear Aristo has a slight bend in it, but would that cause such a harsh reaction? I was thinking wheel bearings but I really don't know how to check for that.

When I come to a slow stop my brakes squeak. I took the car to the dealer and had to prove to them that the brakes actually squeak. I drove around and pulled back to the service area and keep driving and stopping and the brakes squeaked every time. They supposedly replaced the brake pads, however, the brakes still squeak.

My brakes squeak from time to time, particularly backing up, but also braking forward. My mechanic said I have plenty of brake pad and nothing is being damaged. He said he has often seen the "squeaky brakes" problem in Mercedes and it is often difficult to pinpoint which wheel (or wheels) would be the cause of the squeaking (sound like metal on metal). Why this is happening?
View 2 RepliesHonda - Accord :: 2005 - Squeaky / Grinding Brakes
My 2005 Honda Accord (approx 48,000 miles) has had squeaky/grinding brakes for the last few months. The brakes make a horrible grinding noise for the first few times that I brake each time that I drive it, and then as the car warms up the noise seems to go away. It also shakes a little bit when it's making the grinding noise - not a ton, but enough that I think there must be something wrong. It's worse (during those first few brakings) if I brake hard, but even if I'm really gently applying the brake it makes the same unsettling noise. The squeaking noise doesn't go away ever, but I don't think it's as serious as the grinding noise (but I could be wrong - that's why I'm here!).
I took it to a brake specialty place in November or December and they couldn't find anything wrong with it. Other than regular oil changes and tire rotations, the car hasn't had any repairs.
