One thing I'm not liking quite as well with my Passat as my previous car is that in my old car when I turned off the engine it would unlock all the doors. The Passat only unlocks the drivers door. I'd like to have the other doors unlocked as well for when I have the kids with me. Is there any way to set it to do this?

My 99 passat has this very annoying habit of rolling down all the windows and unlocking the doors some random amount of time after I lock the car. Could it be a bad ECU under the driver's seat? I'm ready to push the car off a cliff!

Both the driver and pass. side inside door handles (with the window switches) have the thin outer 'rubberized' layer peeling off on my tan interior 2006. Short of replacing them ,what other options are there? Wrap it all in some kind of matching tape? What kind? If i have to replace them, what kind of costs and complexity are we looking at?
Other than that, at over 120k miles, this baby continues to be a dream to drive

Passat (B6) :: 2006 - Door Handle And Window Switches Are Peeling
Got the common problem of the door handles and windows switches peeling in my 2006 Passat. I wanted to buy replacements, but only if I could buy parts that won't peel again. For the window switches, I was looking into these:

Would non-VW parts be a problem? As for the door handles, I heard the new versions of the B6 have door handles that won't peel, but I haven't been able to confirm. If so, how can I recognize the newer parts from online stores? How to completely peel them? I don't mind the look of the plastic underneath.
Passat (B7) :: 2012, 2.5 SE - Clear Coat Peeling Near Trunk / Rear Panel Area
My MY2012 Passat 2.5 SE currently at 37k miles all of a sudden is showing clear coat peeling near the trunk/rear panel area. Car is a CPO and clean carfax (no accidents) and currently still under warranty. Planning on taking it back to the dealership and hopefully start a case for warranty work under VWoA.
I've never encountered clearcoat failure this early on, case in point my B5 (MY1999) still has excellent clear coat uniformity despite the paint/body being 17+ years old.

Found this by accident. If you push the power button with the car off the radio turns on. Checked it twice to make sure I wasnt imaging it. I can't be the first person to do this right?

I have a 2008 GS350 AWD with Mark Levinson sound. There is a satellite radio button but nothing happens when I push it. Do I need to locate the number and get it activated before it'll work?
View 4 RepliesSilverado :: 1991 - Pop Noise When Pressed Radio Button?
The truck sat since 2002 or so. Hasn't ran since, So my brother and me towed it home and I started working on it. I replace the tailgate, Replaced the lights, Did a oil change, Dropped the gas tank out and ran a gallon of gas and seafoam through it. Then I was driving it the other day and I decided to play the radio so I pressed the power button and I heard a pop noise. Like not a fuse pop noise. This happens every time you turn it on/change the volume. Its coming from the speakers and the louder the volume the louder the popping is. Is the radio just bad? Its a funny square shape and I haven't ever seen a radio that would fit this. I checked all the fuses and I found nothing.
View 8 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: 2011 - Radio Preset Button Sticks?
I bought my 2011 GTI new in June and shortly after delivery noticed one of the radio pre-set buttons sticks. You can pry it out with a fingernail, but it's clearly not right. This was no big deal because I was planning on an aftermarket stereo, so I told my sales rep we'll just take care of it on my 90 day inspection.
When I took the stereo in for service last week, they refused to fix the problem, stating I had voided the warranty by removing the stereo from the dash.
So now I'm looking for a way to fix the thing so I can sell it for the $100 it's worth on Ebay. Better yet would be someone from VOA who could talk sense into my local service department (Volkswagen of Oakland). Threatening to never let them see my car again didn't make them any less stubborn.
Touareg :: Radio / CD Control By Button On Steering Wheel?
Are you able to control/change radio chanels and cd tracks from the buttons on the steering wheel besides the controling volume. I remember when I test drove a base model Treg the salesperson was showing me this using the thumb wheel he was changing radio chanels. For some reason I can't do the same. Are there any secrets to this?

My radio was working fine on Friday, but the next time I drove the car, on Sunday, the radio wouldn't turn on. The power button doesn't do anything, pressing the mode button doesn't do anything and the voice command button doesn't do anything.
Everything else works... bluetooth, display, Nav. Just the radio/CD player won't turn on... it just says "Audio Off". Also, when I go into the diag screen, the Audio reports "NCON". I've checked the fuses listed in the Owners Manuel as audio and they all seem fine.
Prius V :: Radio On Button Doesn't Work On Cold Winter Mornings
Here's an odd one. On our mildly cold winter mornings ~12 degC the radio on button doesn't work. This is regardless of the power status the night prior. What's even weirder if that if climate control is off and you turn it on the radio button is fixed. Earth leak, cold temp resistance, 12V battery?
View 5 RepliesFord Audio/Video System :: 2006 - AUX Button Radio Swap?
My 06 Superduty had a plain jane AM/FM stereo. I got a 6CD MP3 replacement from a pick-a-part. I don't know the vehicle it came from, all I can say is that it was an SUV. The radio didn't look the greatest, but it worked. I went back to the junkyard to see if I could get the plug for the AUX line-in. I found a 2007 Fusion that had it so I grabbed the radio, cut the plug that goes into the back and grabbed that too. The line-in was in the center console so I cut that out too. There were seven wires coming out of the radio plug and four coming out of the line-in jack. I connected the four wires because they were the same color on both ends. One was a black wire that ran to a foil shield that encased part of the harness. I guess the other two go to the CAN bus? I don't know, there is no provision for them in my truck. The fusion radio takes a different antennae plug and the face doesn't work. When I plug in the line-in plug that I wired up, it only works on one channel. When I plug it into the radio from the SUV and hit the AUX button, it says NO AUX. Do I need one of those PIE connectors, or is there a way to make my pigtail work?
