Passat (B5) :: Rear Hatch Sensor Turn Off By Slamming Door?

I'm still trying to get a feel for the car and I've noticed that I have to slam the hatch door in order to get the sensor to turn off. I'm hoping I can adjust the sensor or latch. Thought I'd post this while I'm free to do so. its not really a big deal. I'm just curious what others have to say about it since I'm new to Passat wagons.

Ignition - Subaru - Starting - Engines :: When Turn The Key On And Push In The Clutch Impreza Won't Turn Over

I have a 93 subaru impreza manual that when I turn the key on and push in the clutch it wont turn over. The coolant fans kick on and stay on and so i retrieved the codes and the coolant temp sensor was the dtc so I replaced the sensor and cleared the code but the fans still come on and the engine still does nothing. Also I can gear clicking noises throughout the engine compartment and dont know where its coming from.

Ford A/C :: Clutch Does Not Engage When Turn On Switch

On my 2001 Excursion the ac clutch went south over the weekend. I replaced the clutch with a factory clutch kit. Now the problems are baffling me.

I set the air gap at .020. The problem being when I turn the ignition switch on and turn on the ac switch the clutch does not engage. I still get cold air. When I start the truck and it runs the clutch is engaged without any problems, I turn it off and the clutch disengages.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Clutch Engaging Slowly When Turn The AC On

Got a weird issue that I've never encountered before. I tried searching but you can't search for just "A/C", so the search was pretty generic and I couldn't find anything similar to my issue.

Hot or cold, doesn't matter. When I turn the A/C on the clutch try's to engage and slowly starts to spin with the pulley until until it finally engages then the a/c will blow out cold air just fine. Also noticed a burning smell coming from it.

Ford A/C :: Hot Air Blowing / Clutch Does Not Engage But The Compressor Does Turn

Says A/C Compressor Clutch Circuit open. A/C blows hot air....go to VENT and the EATC controls the temp fine (ambient air only). It's on a '97 Lincoln Mark VIII if it makes any difference. Pulled code # 1530 ...

Clutch does not engage but the compressor does turn. Also the EATC will NOT go into the test mode. Push OFF and Floor at same time, then AUTO within two seconds. Nothing. Is this a clutch gap problem? New clutch was installed about a year ago.

Camry :: Transmission / Sensor - Shift Hesitating After A Stop Or On A Turn

My 02 Camry(auto tranny) just started shift hesitating after a stop or on a turn. Engine revs and then slowly grabs. After that, does everything fine as far as normal shifting is concerned(up and down through the other gears). Fluid level is full after a change out last month.

I bought this car used this year and the tranny fluid was dark brown. Didn't smell burnt, but compared to other fluid I've seen looked roasted or old. Like it had never been changed. This Camry has 150K.

So, do i have a transmission issue or has a sensor gone bad?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: Air Conditioning Won't Turn Off - Clutch Disengage

I have verified that my AC clutch does disengage (and re-engage), but it seems like the AC is on all the time. Normally you don't notice this in the Northwest because I always overpower it with the heater, but now that it's above 70 on occasion, in vent and full cold, it still blows 20 degrees colder or more than outside air temp.

Is it possible that the clutch disengages but that the bearings are bad and its somehow still turning the compressor? Would a mechanic be able to diagnose this or would I just have to throw money at buying a new compressor? My first indication should have been that I get about 15-16mpg when I used to get 18+ occasionally.

Passat (B5) :: Could Clutch Be Adjusted?

When I bought my 2004 Passat three months ago, I was told that the clutch was brand new. Lately when I take a corner in second gear, I get a "whole car seizure" if I am hitting the gas a little hard while not letting up the clutch enough. I've never had this happen before in ANY of the other standards I have owned / driven.

Passat (B5) :: 1999 - Clutch Went Out

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.

Passat (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.

Passat (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.

Passat (B5) :: Clutch Pedal Won't Return By Itself

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.

Passat (B5) :: 2001 - How To Replace Clutch

Need to replace the clutch on my wife's 2001 AWM. Its for her, no mod's, driven daily to work etc. I just want a stock style replacement that will last as long as the original (165k). Should I go with the stock replacement from Sachs or go with one of the Valeo style dual mass conversions? Does my car even have a dual mass? Can the OEM flywheels be resurfaced/turned?
