Phaeton :: Remote Won't Open Doors / Flashes Green And Key Only Goes Half Way In

We just used the car last night. Hard to believe the battery is the issue. The key won't go in the trunk either. All the locks will not work with they key.

Remote wont open doors (it flashes green so battery is fine) and key only goes half way in. Locked out!

Lexus RX 2010-15 :: Key Fob Remote Wouldn't Open The Doors

My key fob remote wouldn't open the doors, so I used the key. Then when I went to start the car it said key not detected. Called Lexus and they said to hold the remote in front of the start button for 30 seconds, but that didn't work.

I realize the battery might be dead, but the funny thing is both of my fobs don't work. Also, last night I noticed the light inside my car didn't turn on as usual when I exited. What might be going on?

Golf/GTI VI :: Lock Doors With The Remote While A Door Is Open?

I tried the manual and search here but did not find how to switch this feature on and off. When I bought the car, I could use the remote to lock the doors while a door is open, such as when I am stepping out of the car. Then when the door shuts, it beeps to confirm a lock. This feature went away, and now it won't do anything while a door is open; presumably to keep me from locking my keys in the car. I can't stand this feature, it's like a damn Honda, protecting me from myself! How to switch this back?

Prius (2004-09) :: Car Won't Unlock After Parked For 2 Days

I just had my 90K service done, drove my '04 prius home and parked it for 2 days.

I tried to open the door like I always do (no remote key, just touching the handle) and the car would not unlock.

When I got into the car the GPS screen did not come up, the Info screen and energy consumption screens are also not working.

Before I took the car in for service everything worked fine.

I'm contending that the service people jostled something they should have just jiggled, or possibly jangled something they should have jingled.

Prius (Gen 2) :: Car Parked For 6 Days - Check Engine Light Came On

I just got back from a 6 day trip and when I turned my 2004 Prius back on I'm getting a check engine light. We did get a fair amount of snow that I had to clean off.

The car runs and starts fine so I'm thinking it is just a bug in the computer after sleeping in the snow for too long.

Touareg :: Started Right Up When Parked For 5 Days But More Valve Noise Than Usual

I did a few searches with key words, engine, valves, and knock but didn't come up with any info. I know the reason the valves and engine noise is louder than usual is because the oil has had ample time to gravitate to the bottom of the engine. I remember reading some where that the knocking valves when starting up was normal for the Touareg, but can't find the post.

My question is, the engine is too noisy when cold starting? The knocks go away in less than a min or so, but I haven't had a vehicle make such valve noise when cold starting, except older cars that needed valve jobs... Other than the start up knocks.. it sounds and drives great..

Lexus RX 2010-15 :: Key Remote / Start Not Recognized When Car Parked For Longer Periods

If I leave my 2013 RX parked for longer periods (5-14 days) w/o starting it does not want to recognize my key for starting oftentimes. I end up having to remove from my pocket and hold it up to the ignition button so it recognizes and then it will start.

I have had the battery checked in the remote and it is fine. The dealer tells me this can happen as the vehicle battery can run down in that amount of time since there are electronics within the vehicle still functioning that will draw from the battery.

I have no problem if I drive the vehicle every day or even every 2-3 days. Vehicle only has about 6,000 miles on it.

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Doors Won't Auto Lock When Car Parked Or Left Idle

My 2010 Corolla S used to always lock itself after I parked my car and left it idle for a moment or so. For instance, when I walk away from my car after parking it would auto-lock the doors. Now when I leave it, the doors remained unlock and I have to lock it myself each time. How to change it back somehow? I want to set it back in-case I ever do forget to lock it manually, it could save a lot of hassles.
