Passat (B5) :: Six Loud Beeps / Brake Light Comes On And Oil Pressure Warning Flashing
So while driving my mom's 99 passat, after a few miles it gives six loud beeps, the BRAKE light comes on, the oil pressure warning light starts flashing, the ABS light flashes, and the tach sits at zero.
Brakes still work, havent tested ABS. there's no noticeable change in performance. I'm assuming this is the CCM and ABS modules on their last breaths.

About 2 months ago my Touareg was rear-ended. I just got it back from the body shop and am finding little things that are not the same and I am wondering if they just need reprogramming or if these could be a bigger issue (going back to the body shop today)?
1. They replaced the entire liftgate, but the rear wiper is not working even though the washer fluid does.
2. The interior lights are on, even though all doors are shut, when the switch is set to the open door setting.
3. There is no beep when I lock my vehicle with the keyfob, but the lights blink.
4. There are no warning beeps for the parking sensors, even though the dash lights up.
Passat (B5) :: Brake Warning Light Flashes, Stop Displays On The Instrument Screen
2004 Passat GLS 1.8t 5 spd. This started last week. It is very inconsistent, but I seem to have it happen more when it's cold out. Sometimes I am coming to a stop, just leaving from one or could be doing 30-60 mph - truly no rhyme or reason. Anyway, the brake warning light flashes, the cluster beeps loudly 3 times and it says STOP on the instrument screen. It then changes to "brake fault" and then "service manual". After that cycle, everything goes away and it usually won't do it again. One time I had it do it 3 times back to back. Brakes work fine. I have good pad depth. Fluid looks like I should flush it, but level is fine. I scanned w VAG-COM and found no faults.

My ESP warning light has been on for the past few days. Just noticed that 2 brake lights aren't working (but the centre brake light is OK). A common problem? Is is just a matter of replacing the brake light globes?
View 1 RepliesPassat (B5) :: Can Random Oil Warning Beeps Be Silenced
My in-laws have a Passat with an errant oil sensor that throws warnings even though the engine is "fine" oil-wise. My information on the car is incomplete but I'll do my best - it is is 1999 or a 2000 with about 175k miles, it has the 1.8L turbo engine, the transmission is Tiptronic, the factory radio is installed and has never been removed, and there is nothing actually "wrong" regarding engine oil (it is the correct type, checking it several times shows correct level, no weird non-lubricating sounds from the engine nor anything like overheating, etc).
Every once in a while during all kinds of driving (not related to RPMs, weather, etc.) the oil warning light comes on and a subset of those times is accompanied by a LOUD three beep alarm. Is there any way to tell the car to chill out with the audio alarm and just blink the light? Unfortunately "replace the sensor" isn't an option the owners seem willing to consider, so I'm looking for alternatives.
This has been verified by multiple mechanics over time as being a sensor issue, and there is no oil issue, I just want to attempt to stop the annoying reactions people have when the car constantly beeps at them (ridicule all you like, I am only asking about disabling the beep not both the beep and the light and ONLY in the case of warnings caused by this specific failed sensor, which will never be replaced).

Suddenly, while starting the car I see the ABS & Brake warning lights come on for a few seconds and then turn off. After a week of driving it the warning light come on and stay on and now another light comes on that looks like a circle with an exclamation mark in it. Am I in danger of damaging anything if I keep driving it? I called the dealer and explained the problem and he said the problem is a faulty ABS Control Unit.

Last night I was driving my '99 Passat when suddenly I heard this loud alarm in my car. Quickly looking down I saw what I think were my ABS and brake indicator lights on. It happened so fast, maybe less than a second and everything was back to normal.
I was driving on dry pavement on country roads at about 60 mph. Outside temp was 37 and there were major gusts of wind, maybe 40 mph or so. Vehicle has about 115,000 miles on it.
Checked my manual and it said to have it checked.
Passat (B5) :: ABS And Brake Warning Lights Start Flashing Intermittently
Had a small brake fluid leak from my right-rear wheel, so I took it into a local place called Wheel Works. They said the right-rear caliper needed to be replaced, so I told them to go ahead.
Two days after I pick up the car, the ABS light and brake warning lights start flashing intermittently. They'd come on at random times, and then turn back off. After about 2 weeks of this, the warning lights are now on all the time.
I've read elsewhere on these forums that the ABS module on our cars can go bad and might need to be rebuilt. But is it possible that the mechanic caused this problem when he was working on the brakes to replace my caliper? Could it be something more minor than the ABS module? I now have reason to believe this mechanic is shady, so I'm hesitant to bring it back there.

Passat (B5) :: V6 Beeps 3 Times When Turn It On And Flashes The Word Stop
My 2000 v6 beeps 3 times when i turn it on and flashes the word STOP! while leaving the abs light illuminated on the dash as well as the brake light. The car also feels a little shaky while slowing down if touching the brakes, and when accelerating in first gear it tends to buck slightly. Also I had a new flywheel, clutch, tranny all the works just put in last summer, is it a problem that the clutch is at the top, when i first got it back with the new tranny it was releasing at the floor.
View 5 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Car Beeps And Parking Brake Won't Disengage At Start Up
Ok so i get off work and i go to my car, its around 6ish and its reading 36 degrees fahrenheit. On start up the car beeps and the parking brake wont disengage...tried pressing the button a couple times but nothing. So i turn it off and start it again...nothing. Then finally turn it off, let it sit till all the interior lights come off. Turn it on and lo and behold it works! At an ambient air temp of 36 degrees, is it possible that rotors and pads are frozen? Also could it be that the cold temperature is freezing the brake lines? Also the car was parked so that the wind was perpendicular to the brakes. So like a T with the long part being the wind!

View 2 RepliesHonda - Cr-z :: All Dash Warning Lights Were On When Came To A Stop
I was t-boned in my passenger side door & rear quarter panel. After being hit, I tried to stop but nothing happened when I pressed on my brake pedal. It's a 2011 manual transmission Honda CR-Z. I am 100% sure that I was pressing the brake pedal because my left foot was on the clutch - I even looked down to make sure. I did stop after hitting a car that was about 20 yards in front of me after the initial crash.
When I came to a stop all the dash warning lights were on. I had taken it out of gear but it was stalled anyway. I turned it all the way off and about 15 minutes later I restarted the engine. The 'Cruise Main' light was still illuminated on the dash (I hadn't been using the cruise control). I pressed the cruise control button and the light went out. And then tested the brakes and they worked just fine!
Could the battery recharging brakes or the battery location in the rear of the car have anything to do with this? I'm awaiting a report from Honda. The service technician as going to see if the computer has any information to explain the loss of brakes.

I had the light and sound show pop up on the display of my 00 2.8 wagon this week. The ABS light, the brake light and occasionally the TC light combined with a big STOP in the display and Brake Failure.
I took it to my local and he did a quick scan and the ABS computer isn't communicating, indicating it's fried.
Prius (2004-09) :: Came To Stop Suddenly On The Driveway - CEL Along With Other Warning Lights Came On
I own a 2004 Prius with about 122000 miles. Today I was driving up a steep gravel driveway, going very slowly and slipping a little. The VSC light was blinking and then the car came to a stop. At that time, the big red warning light came and check engine light came on along with a message on the info screen reading "Problem". AND most distrurbing of all, a pinkish car symbol warning with an exclamation mark through it that the manual tells me to take it to the dealer immediately.
View 4 RepliesPassat (B7) :: Stop Low Oil Pressure, Warning Came On
My wife has gotten this message twice in our 2013 Passat, 2.5L SE. Not sure the exact wording of the message, but something to the effect of "Stop engine low oil pressure". The first was about a couple months ago and then again this morning. Both times it was on for about a minute or less and then went off. Obviously, it is a serious issue if real. Both were cold mornings, it being winter and all. We've driven plenty of miles in between and no message and I've never seen it personally.
Oil level is good and we're probably only about 4000 miles since last oil change. Its just weird that the message goes away quickly and was about two months apart.
