View 24 RepliesPhaeton :: Rapid Chirping Through Speakers Once Ignition Turned On
My P is partly laid up with a battery conditioner permanently attached and is used only every few weeks. Once the ignition is turned on, any music is damped and a distinct rapid 'chirping' noise is heard, for about 3 seconds. The music then ramps back up and all is well. No warnings, lights or other indications whatsoever. The battery voltage seems fine and she starts beautifully. My suspicion is that it may be battery or immobiliser related. My primitive VCDS gives no codes.

I have a question regarding the rear air suspension. After driving the vehicle for a short or extended period of time, I hear the rear passenger airbag/air-line loosing air as I turn off the ignition. I wanted to ask if this is normal or if I have a leak somewhere..

Ok, so I'm working on a 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe, 93,000 miles. The vehicle runs great! So great that you cant get it to stop running!! The problem is intermittent and generally happens after the vehicle has been running for at least 3 minutes. I turn the key off and she keeps on running (not dieseling, but running at 340-450 rpms!) I have already removed the aftermarket remote start that was installed on the vehicle thinking that was the problem, it was not. Then I went to the ignition switch and unplugged that, also to no avail! I plugged my scan tool in and can communicate with the computer and view pids while the key is on. When I turn the key off, I should loose communication. When everything acting normal and the car actually shuts off with the key, I loose communication with the computer upon turning the key off. When I turn the key off and the veh. keeps running, I do NOT loose communication with the pcm. The only way to shut the car off is to step on the gas pedal. Otherwise it'll run at 400 or so RPM for an hour or so!!

I have a 2004 ford Escape and the radio won't turn off when the cars ignition is turned off. I have checked the interior lights and the windows and they turn off, so I'm assuming that the relay isn't the problem. I have asked a ford mechanic what he might think it would be and he said it could be the radio, but I don't think it is.

I own a Vw Phaeton 3.0 TDI 2004. A few days ago , everytime i take the ignition key of the car , the car 'dies' ( headlights , radio , doors , alarm... ) and it stops working for a couple of minutes. When i put the key again , the car starts working and everything works 100% but if i remove the key again , the car dies again. The car runs fine if i ride it a whole day , no problems at all. The following day , the car dies again. What's wrong with it?

View 2 RepliesPhaeton :: 2004 - Ignition Lock Warning Indicator Came On Whilst Driving
Background: 2004 Phaeton, 38k miles, no major/minor mechanical issues -- until now. Issue is this. The drain lines in the trunk area of the car became clogged one dark and dreary night. Water overflowed -- somehow -- onto the starter circuits.
Whilst driving to the office the "IGNITION LOCK WARNING" indicator came on. When I arrived at the office and shut off the engine, the car became completely immobilized (imagine several hisses and four distinct thunks) and the key became stuck in the ignition.
The ignition circuit was replaced and drains cleaned out with 'nipples' removed to ensure no more blockages. HOWEVER, I have now been told the starter is bad.
Prius C :: Key Turned To Off And Out Of Ignition - Car Still On?
This weekend I stopped my car, put it in park and turned it off (or so I thought). I was in a hurry so I didn't really look at the dash, I just left. When I returned to my car a few minutes later, it was still on. The dash was all lit up, the running lights were on, the stereo was searching for my phone, etc.
I put the key back in, turned it on and turned it to off position and the car shut off.
I'm going to speak to the mechanic when I take it in for an oil change next week, but it's a little worrisome.
Elantra XD (2001-06) :: CEL Won't Come On When Ignition Is First Turned On
01 Elantra, once warmed up to running temp starts to run like a pig & wont idle, has new plugs/leads.
Funny thing is there is no engine check light, in fact it doesn't even come on for the 6 seconds when the ignition is first turned on at all.
Secondly I have OBD2/ELM327 with scanpro but it doesn't connect to the ECU.
We put it into a shop & they claim they were able to connect to ecu but gave no codes which I find a bit strange.
Phaeton :: Can't Get Key Out Of Ignition
My Wife has been driving my Phaeton once a week to keep everything working normally. She hand washed the car and somehow during the washing evolution she set the alarm off. Now she's telling me the car will start but then it shuts down and also she can't get the key out of the ignition.
I had the car setup for a tow to the VW dealer so they could figure things out but the tow truck driver couldn't get it started or get the key out either so they couldn't tow it and from what my wife told me, they bought the wrong type of tow truck.
I don't know if this is a battery issue or what because the wife stated she hasn't had any problems cranking the car previously and battery has always shown the proper voltage and was checked by the VW dealership a few months ago and got a good bill of health.
Prius 2016 (Gen 4) :: Open Vents To Outside Air When Ignition Is Turned Off
I noticed one of the adjustments for the Carista 3.0 is to Open vents to outside air when ignition is turned off. The factory default was set to *Yes*. I changed it to No because I was thinking when it's really warm outside (I live in warmer part of silicon valley) and you crank up the A/C and then park outdoors, opening the vents to the outside will warm the car faster. Don't know whether my assumption is correct or not?

View 7 RepliesTouareg :: ABS Failure - Warning Lights When Turned The Ignition On
A couple weeks ago i started to get the "ABS", "ESP off", and a picture of a truck heading downhill "hill descent"? warning lights when i turned the ignition on. The warning lights would all stay on and this was happening about 25% of the time that i started the car. Once on they stay on until i turn ignition off. The owners manual states the when the "ABS" failure light comes on it automatically turns ESP off. So I tested to see if ABS really not working and sure enough i was able to get wheels to lock up and i smoked the tires pretty good.
I took car to dealer and they found a hard fault code for the ABS failure but they could not find anything wrong so they ended up cleaning all connections - whatever that means. That was yesterday. Today the warning lights all came back on.
Elantra XD (2001-06) :: No Attempt To Start When Ignition Key Is Turned
I have a 2004 Elantra GT, and for the past year it sometimes makes no attempt to start when the ignition key is turned. All the dashboard lights, radio, bells and whistles are fine, but once the key is turned to start nothing happens. There are no clicks or anything. Some dashboard lights stay on and I can hear the initial whirring under the hood from the electrical system.
I've replaced the battery, ignition wires, and plugs. This will happen very erratically. Then all of a sudden it will fire up like nothing was wrong. This is always over a several minute time span of trying and retrying to start. I took it to a mechanic but we can never replicate the problem while there.
Accent LC (2000-05) :: Thump But No Click When Key Turned In Ignition
So the lights work fine don't dim when trying to start the car. when you turn the ignition there is one thump but no clicks or revs like belts are moving. The battery is fairly new less than a year and as mentioned all electric things seem to be fine. I was also told by the tow guy that it was the starter but just want to be sure.
Advanced auto states they will test it but I need to get it out of the car. Only problem is I cant find it. I've looked at the manual online and seen numerous diagrams but I don't know the physical location of it do I need to get under the car to remove it? Do i need to remove anything to get to it? I haven't seen any live pictures showing where it is and I've googled it for a while now.
Honda :: 1991 - Key Won't Come Out Of Ignition After Engine Turned Off When Cold
I have a 1991 Honda that has a quirk which is driving me nuts. When I turn off the engine, the key won't readily come out. It's especially difficult when the temperature is below 40 degree's. I've replaced the key at a Honda dealer, which my mechanic suggested, but to no avail. I shake the gear shifter repeatedly which doesn't seem to work. I sprayed lubricant into the key hole. It's frustrating to have to sit and wait a couple of minutes to exit my car.
