View 1 RepliesPassat (B5) :: 2002 - Adjusting The Seat?
My mother just bought a beautiful 2002 Passat 4motion Wagon.
But, the only thing we can't figure out is the automatic seats...
She adjusted them for her driving, then I adjusted them for my driving, then she adjusted them again, then they adjusted to some weird setting when she unlocked the door!!
What we'd like to do is have it so that:
It defaults to her setting regardless, unless a button is pressed for something else. How do we set that?

View 1 RepliesPassat (B5) :: Driver Side Front Floor Soaked After A Rain Storm
We had a big rain storm the other night and I didn't drive my car today. So I get in after I get home and notice a god damn flood on my driver side front floor I made sure the drains in the rain tray were clear the other night when I first got the car. Is this more than likely coming from the sunroof drain? I ran some water down the sunroof drain while it was open and it seemed to come out. The water looked to be coming from where the hood release is as there were a few drips right below it.

It happened twice since June when we (central NJ) have had really heavy rains. My front passenger side carpet becomes absolutely soaked, but everything else stays completely dry. Do you think the rubber trim has failed? A regular wash is fine, nothing gets in from that. My car is a 2006 B6 with about 97k on it. It's weird.

The "60" portion of my 60/40 rear seat will not go back to the regular seat back position. I have been told by a local VW dealership that the center seat belt mechinism is locked and is preventing the seat back from going back up.

I purchased my car second hand. I don't know if the previous owner was a big, sweaty dude who didn't take showers but....after driving in my car for certain periods, I get a funky body odor from the seat.
I sprayed vinegar/water onto the seat, let it stay and wiped up. I wonder if there's bacteria forming on the seat heat/cooling source?
Tiguan :: Liner All Soaked, Sunroof Not Tied To RLS
So recently I had left my windows and sunroof open on a hot day. An afternoon shower came up. When I went out to my car later that day I found the liner all soaked but the windows rolled up and the sunroof still open. It's a 2016 SEL
I have comfort enabled to open and close with both FOB and door handle(KESSY) and confirmed the sunroof operation. I then left everything open, locked and armed the car. Then came back later and poured water on the windshield and watched as the windows rolled up but the sunroof did not move. Tested with it both open and tilted and never moved once. Obviously the dealer is no use as they claim the car is not equipped with that feature.
Camry :: Power Steering Pump Is Soaked And Dripping With Oil
I have a '97 Lexus Es300 1mz fe170k with a very minor oil leak. It's not a serious leak, but it's starting to get all over my power steering belt and making ugly spots in my driveway. The whole front of the motor is wet with oil, so I'm not sure exactly where the leak is coming from. I don't think it's coming from the oil pan, considering the power steering pump is soaked and dripping with oil (positive its not power steering fluid). There seems to be more traces of oil on the bottom of the rear manifold too. Thinking it may be a seal behind the timing cover, i pulled off the upper cover just to find the timing belt and pulleys bone dry and free of oil. I've attached a picture of the leak but where to look. The rear manifold is circled in white.
View 1 RepliesCivic - Honda :: 2003 - Water Soaked Carpet?
So I have no clue where and how this leak started. My 2003 Honda Civic Ex has 133000 miles well earned. This leak has to be stopped. The carpet has been ripped out to dry, but I will probably replace it anyways. Some Ideas have already been given to me. First one, my car does have a system in it(meaning sub and amp cords running through firewall), so water could possibly pass through that hole. Second is checking the windows, door seals and if any welds or cracks have not been filled by the auto body shop. This would be from the one known accident from previous owner. Damage was done to the rear left drivers side panels, behind the door. The problem was looked over but nothing was found. Third would be to check, again the windows and doors rubber insulation strips. Also the fourth and most interesting idea, was that the vents or drains that are responsible for the water that flows down the front window and into those vents, I obviously have no real idea of what these things are called, might be clogged, as well as the channels that the vents are connected too.
View 2 RepliesGolf IV / Jetta IV :: Driver Side Floor Soaked
I left my the car sitting for a week out in heavy rain and came back to find that the driver side floor was soaked. After searching around I seem to have found the entry point. It seems like all of the water is pouring in from my hood release lever area which I find strange. I put a towel down last night during two hours of rain and came back to find the towel almost fully soaked through. I read other threads on this but the results were inconclusive. Could it be the lower or upper windshield seals? Door seals? Another problem I'm having is water leaking from my dome light buttons after a heavy rain. I assume this is a problem with the sunroof seal, but whenever I search around it feels dry?

View 4 RepliesSaturn - Outlook :: Leaking Sunroof - Soaked Floor Boards
Friday, 4/4/14: I have read many of the posts about this issue on this site. Didn't know this was such a widespread problem until I started doing my internet research today. Obviously there are many of us and this has been going on for a few years with this vehicle. I have had soaked floor boards twice and dealing with my third incident today(4 inches of rain last night). Have an appt with my GMC dealership on Monday. How I start this process with GMC to quickly get their attention. Obviously, I need to contact GMC first so that I can get their standard, worthless answer. But I've read I need to hire a "lemon law attorney", post my dissatisfaction on social media, contact the news media, etc. I am 62 yrs old, on disability, can't afford this inconvenience for something GMC should be RECALLING and fixing. Plus I have a small garage and this monster vehicle will not fit in it (didn't know that until after I bought it).
