As stated in the title, my feet stay cold for a long time after the car fully warms up, and I can't feel much if any airflow under the dash. I tried going from auto to directing all flow to the floor, zero change, even with the fan on high.

Headlights are factory adjusted too low? Maybe it's just me, but I don't believe the headlights are factory adjusted high enough because the headlight coverage distance is not as good as I'm used to seeing. I believe I will adjust my headlights for a slightly higher (upward) aim to see if it improves the distance the headlights cover.

Camry 2012+ :: Cruise Control Sensitivity Can Be Adjusted?
I have a question regarding my Camry. Is there any way the cruise control sesitivity can be adusted? When we are traveling at ~70 mph on interstate highways with rolling hills (e.g. MA Pike), the transmission downshifts nearly every time going up hill - sometimes dropping to 4th gear. To me, the cruise control is "too determined" to let the car speed decrease even 1 mph. I'm finding that quite annoying. I'd be happy to let the speed decline 2 - 3 mph to avoid the annoying downshifiting / upshifting on upgrades. I know that a 6 cyl wouldn't have this problem.

My 2013 is always off by a few degrees (too warm) on the outside temperature display. This is not the sun or other outside influence. I wouldn't mind if it was just a couple degrees but it is always 5-10 degrees off. Can this be adjusted?

View 3 RepliesTouareg :: Side Mirror Was Automatically Adjusted When Driving In Reverse
I picked up my car after 10K service at the local dealer. I get in the car, put tranny in reverse and started driving. Then I noticed that my right mirror is off. So I got out of dealer parking and stopped. Then I looked at the mirror and it was perfectly aligned!
I heard that this feature (mirrors will adjust when you drive in reverse) in Mercedes and some other cars, but nort VW. I was wrong. My Treg has the same feature. The only trick is that your mirror switch in the cabin should be turned to right, like when you try to adjust right passenger mirror. That's it.
Every time you will switch to reverse, you right passenger mirror will turn 30 or more degree down. I was very surprised and pleased that VW has that little feature.

Prius (2010-12) Fuel :: 2011 - Not Getting Expected MPG Even With Adjusted Driving Techniques
I bought my 2011 Prius III back at the end of December and so far have had 3 fuel ups. Not counting my first tank, my second tank I got 44.4 MPG calculated with mindful driving (driving slower and pulsing and gliding etc). The last tank however, I decided to drive a little more like how I drove my previous car (2001 Lexus ES300). This last fuel up resulted in 41.4 MPG calculated. I feel like I have to work quite a bit to keep it above 43 MPG. I am located in Southern California Orange County, however 90% of my driving is NOT in Socal Traffic. I also changed my oil to Mobile 1 Synthetic Enhanced Fuel Economy yesterday at 1200 miles.
I also have read a lot about break in at 3k-5k, which is keeping me hopeful. How much can I really expect, if any at all? I am not sure what to think on this because as with the people who have experienced good jumps after a break in, it seems there is an equal amount of people getting great MPG right off the bat.
- What fuel economy are you getting and how are you determining fuel economy? (trip computer or manual calculations) 42.9 average for the last 2 tanks - calculated
- What fuel economy are you expecting and why? 45-48, brand new car and adjusted driving techniques. I was hoping for 50+
- What are the approximate outside air temps? 55-80
- How long are your trips? Daily, about 3-5 driven. Weekends 80-160
Dodge - Ramvan :: Electric Windows And Radio Not Working Right After Steering Wheel Adjusted
I have a question about my electric windows and Radio being effected by the steering column tilt angle being adjusted, I left my car at a parking lot where they park the car for you; when I returned I noticed that the tilt angle was adjusted which I never touch but for some reason. The attendant adjusted it; when I was driving home I noticed that my windows did not work; so I readjusted the wheel and they began to work again, then I noticed if I don't put the key in the ignition just in the right spot the electric windows and radio won't work; lol ;Is this because the wires behind the steering wheel were pulled do you think; and if so I'm pretty handy do you think this is a fix I can fix?

My clutch just went out on my 1.8t B5 1999 Passat today. My car has 165k miles, so I'm not super worried about longevity, so I want to know the cheapest results given my circumstances. My car is bone stock other than lowness and rims, so I'm not worried about performance.
View 3 RepliesPassat (B5) :: The Clutch Starts Malfunctioning
My Mom's 1998 Passat 1.8T has 340,000 miles on it. I was unaware of it until today, but apparently when it reaches around 97 degrees the clutch starts malfunctioning. She says the pedal will go to the floor and the clutch stops working. My Step-father does not think the clutch itself has ever been replaced. Sometimes she even has to pull it back up with her foot. I'm not well versed on this model as I'm primarily an A-1 guy.

View 1 RepliesPassat (B5) :: Clutch Stopped Working
So I was on a road trip pretty far away from home on some winding roads in the mountains enjoying a new chip I put in my 1.8t and when I down shifted to 2nd, my car all of a sudden felt as if I went into neutral, needless to say, I wasn't, my clutch just stopped working. I can shift through all the gears, and nothing grabs, not even slightly, I don't hear any grinding or anything. It's just as if I'm in neutral. My clutch was pretty worn to start with, I've got 130,000 on an original clutch I just never had a clutch got out on me like that.

My B5's clutch started not returning by itself when the really cold weather started. When it gets warmer it starts to spring back up. I called the dealership and the initial cost of looking at it takes me somewhat aback. I've already spent quite a bit on it last year. Reading some of the threads on other car models I've seen mention of clutch master/slave and fluids.
