Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: 1999 - White Light At Rear Won't Turn Off?
My buddy just purchased a 1999 F-150. He called me to complain that the white lights on either side of the high mount stoplight (above the rear cab window) won't turn off. Are these a bed light or a reverse light? If they are independent of the reverse lights, how do you turn them off?

Passat (B6) :: Loud POP From Passenger Rear At Red Light - Brakes Stuck
So today, at a red light, i let off the brakes- I feel and hear a loud pop from the passenger rear. My first reaction, whatever brakes stick, happens.
Then it did it again, then again, a bit louder and a more dramatic feeling. It's my only driver as my TT is out right now in the body shop.
Passat (B5) :: 2002 - Rear Light Bulb On Passenger Side Not Illuminate When Press The Brake
I am trying to replace the rear light bulb (top of two) on the passenger side. It doesn't illuminate when I press the brake. What kind of light bulb does it take?? There is a removable compartment but I am having a hard time removing the harness where the bulbs are located . I see two clips but I still can not pull it out to access the defective bulb.
View 1 RepliesPassat (B5) :: Tail Light And Rear Turn Signal Bulbs Replacement
I need detailed instructions for how to replace the right (passenger's side) rear turn signal bulb socket and the subassembly that holds the remaining bulbs and inserts into the tail light assembly. I've done this once before successfully but now can't seem to make it work now.
Without the subassembly inserted and locked into place with its locking tabs, the turn signal bulb locks into place in its socket, and that socket in turn easily inserts and locks into place in the hole in the outboard corner of the lens through the rear of the lens assembly. However, I can't seem to install both the turn signal bulb in its socket and the subassembly that holds the rest of the bulbs. The two contacts on the underside of the rim of the turn signal bulb socket would indicate that that the socket installs after the subassembly, but then it has nothing to plug into. When it's installed first, I don't see how the bulb would be energized.
The owner's manual of course says to have the dealer handle maintenance in this area.

View 3 RepliesFord Transmission :: 4r44e - No Reverse After Changing Rear Spark Plug On Passenger Side
After changing the rear spark plug on the passenger side of my wife's truck ,the reverse went out. Its a 2000 4x4 ranger with a 3.0, and I think the 4r44e trans. Any way she said the check engine light came on and it was running rough. I determined that it had a bad plug changed it and she ran fine. I put her in reverse to see if the motor was still stumbling.
I could her the trans shift to reverse and the motor stayed running smoothly. When I took my foot off of the brake she was barely moving, like it was in 4 low. I stopped to see if there was a vac line that might have been pulled off , or any wires unplugged. Nothing. I started her up and put into reverse. no sound no anything it was the same for neutral. you cant hear any click nothing. I drove her and the forward gears are fine od works drive to 2nd has a engine brake feel. and 2nd to 1st has a engine brake feel.
I have never had a issue with this truck till I changed the spark plug. I think that it is a coincidence that that happened or I unplugged something. Any other way before I pull the pan off.

View 7 RepliesPassat (B6) :: 2008 - Passenger Side Mirror And Reverse Function Not Working Properly
I seem to be having a problem with my passenger side mirror and it's reverse function. I have a 2008 Passat Lux. I set the mirror reverse to 'on' in the MFD. I started the car, leave it in park and set up my seats and both mirrors. I press set and then 1 to memorize the positions and hear the chime. I then proceed to put the car into reverse, switch the remote mirror dial to 'R' and position it go down.
The problem I'm having is that the manual says that the passenger mirror will go to it's original set driving position if you go over 9mph (or something like that) or if you move the remote dial to something other then 'R'. But that's not the way it's working. It should ideally go back to the original position when you put the car in to drive (like my old 2002 Passat GLX did), but even when I drive off and go over the stated mph, the mirror doesn't go back to the driving position.
While I'm driving, I then turn the dial off the 'R' position, but it's still looking down....I honestly don't think that I set it incorrectly, but hopefully I am and I don't have to bring it in to service for just that. It's a convenient feature that I want to use. Don't want to curb rash my wheels by my sloppy parking or my wife's....
Passat (B5) :: Coolant Light On - White Crap All Over Engine Cover
I was driving my 2003 Passat 1.8T normally when all of a sudden I see "STOP" on my dash and my coolant light turned on. I pull over and see a bunch of white crap all over the engine cover. The temp gauge didn't go up however, so I drove it home. I am taking it to the dealer tomorrow. I am guessing it could be the water pump? Also there was white crap on the bottom of the hood which showed where it might have came from. I circled that area in the pic.
View 3 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Rear Brakes Squeal Only In Reverse
My rear brakes started to squeal at 15k miles, only in reverse. Needless to say, the squealing got worse and now it sounds like metal on metal. It's at 21k now. I was suprised that the brakes would go out that soon, especially the rears first! I called the dealer and they said, "wow, I'm surprised they lasted that long, they usually only last about 15k". What about the rears going out first, "oh, VW's are designed that way, the rears go first, the pad material is really soft".

View 6 RepliesSubaru - Outback :: Vibrates On Turn After Rear Passenger Accident
Our "brand new" 2010 outback (7K miles) was hit while parked on the street. Rear-ended on the passenger side, both rear tires and Left front tire were no longer vertical. The hit was also so hard that the front bumper had to be replaced from hitting the car in front of us. Luckily there was no frame damage, only tires & drive train. Almost $9,000 in repairs later, the car vibrates when turning at moderate or higher speeds (30mph or faster). The Vibration sounds like hitting the rumble strips on the edges of the highway and gets worse the tighter the turn or the faster the speed. When going straight, no noise or vibration. Mechanic says its a bearing, but can't tell which one because its not bad enough yet.
My uncle thinks it might be related to a mis-alignment in the drive train - possibly causing the rear axles and Differential? to be out of square with each other or how it is actually bolted to the frame. We have put on about 600 miles with no change except a fear of doing more damage. Are either of these on track? Or do I really need to bring it to a Subaru dealer/repair shop? (our local mechanic convinced us to let him do the work, and due to a variety of reasons we decided to go that route - hope it was the right one)
Passat (B6) :: EPC Light Illuminated / Check Engine Blinked Now White Smoke When Trying To Start
Naturally, the dealer service close to me and my regular repair shop are both closed today, so my mind is racing. My check engine light came on a couple weeks ago and I have been waiting for my guy to get back for it's full 80+K workup/service. That was to be right away.
This morning on my 5 mile trip to work after my car sitting for a day, the check engine light came on as usual (with no seeming weird behavior) - but as I was going through some S-curves, the EPC light came on and it felt as if the engine was throttling down, not knowing how to shift, something.
I wasn't far from my parking lot so I drove on here, parked nose out and popped the hood. Nothing visible (not that there would be necessarily) but weird exhaust smell.
I just went back out after lunch and it cranked for a good 20+ seconds over three start attempts before it finally did. Tach went all low and jiggly before kicking in and revving steadily at 1K. However, white puffs of smoke began coming out the exhaust - weird smell (e.g., unburnt fuel perhaps...)
I'm only in a mild panic as I'll likely have to have this towed in and I don't have a clue what I'm facing. I get conflicting tales online as to what it might be but I'd love to impose on your brains if you have some insight to share. I've read about coil packs, throttle bodies, and more.
The only mechanical issue I've had with this engine was that I had the intake manifold assembly replaced right after my warranty went out. Had the throttle body cleaned then, too. Nothing since other than regular services according to vw standards.
Kia - Rio :: 2003 - Passenger Side Rear Turn Signal Stopped Working
This passenger side rear turn signal stopped working two weeks ago after a period of intermittent operation. All other lights work. I replaced the bulb and fuses. I am not an expert about auto electrical. The relay box is under the hood on the driver side. There is another fuse box under the driver side dash left of the steering column. Auto parts stores want to sell me a "flasher" that, well, I can't figure out where it goes. The "TNS relay" in the relay box is smaller than the flasher the parts stores are selling me. My little owner manual is not useful. Any theories about what is wrong? Wiring? Relay? Where does that flasher go? Somewhere under the dash?
