Passat (B5) :: 2004 V8 - Rear Hatch Won't Open
How can I manually open the rear hatch in my 2004 passat w8 wagon? When I got the car it would not open with the remote, but it would unlock with the key. Wife went to the store and the hatch wouldn't unlock. Key just turns. Feels like it is not quite catching to open up the lock.
This has now caused the doors to not lock and windows to not roll down, and no interior lights. Keeps blowing fuse 14. So how do I get I the lock mechanism on the hatch to get it open? Bentley is on the way, but can't be here soon enough.
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.

I have an appointment at Lexus but this sounds like warranty stuff to me -- sudden death of rear hatch? Lexus informed me there is no manual way to open the trunk. Can I somehow manually open the trunk?
Passat (B6) :: Rear Passenger Window Won't Open From Console Or Side Switch
So last night I go to pick up my daughter and the doors are unlocked but her door won't open. I try from the outside and no luck. I get in the back on the driver's side and the lock button is on. I open the door with some difficulty and it opens. It's been fine since.
Today I tried to open that window and the window wouldn't open from my console or from the rear passenger side switch.

Just picked up a 2005 and the hatch glass will not open. Tried everything that I have read on here and on ClubTouareg. It has to be the fuse or something. Pressing the button on the remote does nothing and neither does the switch on the driver's side door.

Actually its inconsistent. Many times with the car running and in park, I jump out to access the rear hatch. Sometimes it will open and sometimes it will not. When it doesn't open, I have to turn off the car and then the hatch opens.

Well I have had my T-Reg for 24 hours and only have one issue. The rear window on the hatch will not open. We read the manual multiple times and it states you just unlock the hatch and than hold the button underneath the wiper and it should open. No luck. Looks like it could be some electrical thing.

With the doors unlocked, I can hear the lock mechanism moving when I press the door release button. The hatch stays shut.
The hatch also doesn't open from the inside, using that recessed slider thingy.
So the electrics seems OK, but the mechanical part of it isn't working properly. It was working perfectly the day before.

On my 04 'reg the rear hatch stopped operating suddenly. I tried the manual release etc and no go. I can hear the mechanism activate when I push on the hatch mounted release (sounds normal) but the door will not budge.
View 1 RepliesFord Excursion :: Rear Hatch Won't Open
So I hooked up to the camper on Friday, threw some gear in the back off the Ex and hit the road. 4 hours and a couple hundred miles later I set up the camper and tried to pop the rear hatch. It's a no-go. It appears that the passenger side latch is releasing but the drivers side is not. My tool selection is limited since I'm on the road, any tricks to get the hatch open? Probably just deal with it till I get home since I don't want the reverse problem and not be able to get it latched again.
View 3 RepliesTouareg :: Dead Battery - Rear Hatch Micro Switch?
My touareg was towed to the dealership a couple of weeks ago for a dead battery again. 11 days later my dealership fixed it along with a list of other problems
My VW dealership's staff handled everything every well. The service manager was both professional and caring, however I did have to bring it back 2 more times due to items left in disaray by the techs.
Anyways, back to the fix....They said it was due to a bad "rear hatch micro switch" Now I've read a lot of about the dead battery issue on this forum & I have never seen anything about the micro switch. Could it be true...did VW really figured it out Or am I just dreaming.

View 2 RepliesTouareg :: Rear Hatch Does Not Unlock When Open The Doors
When I open the doors on my touareg, the rear hatch does not unlock. When I try to program it as an option to open the rear hatch when I unlock the doors, it works for awhile. But, it always goes back to not opening. I recall a few months ago a similar question or post about a solution, like reprogramming something else first or at the same time.
