Phaeton :: Infotainment Screen Is Blank
2 days ago I started my car and the centre console screen failed to come on. This meant no a/c, tv, satnav, radio, etc, etc. None of the keys in the centre console worked. Although they were lit up with the car lights on they were not active.
When I used the steering wheel controls to scroll round, it did not come up with any information about phone, radio, position, etc.
My phone however still thought it was connected to the car. Luckily I'm still under warranty and I'm dropping it off today.
Phaeton :: Infotainment Screen Dims Itself After A Few Minutes
Sometimes when I get in the car the infotainment screen dims itself after a few minutes so that the information is barely visible. It usually comes back to life after about ten minutes. The manual mentions dimming the screen but doesn't elaborate. Is there a dimming switch for that screen?
View 3 RepliesPhaeton :: 2008 - Sound System Malfunction / Distortion On Loud Notes?
We continue to be delighted with our 2008 V8, it's like having wings. I drove to England across France from Switzerland for 100 kms recently, had a wonderful day there and back. But when I play our iPod with WAV files through the sound system there is some distortion on loud notes, even at low volume. Strangely, when a young friend attached his iPod and then replaced mine, it did not distort. There is no distortion when using the CD changer or the Hard disk drive, but I prefer the large choice and full files on the iPod, given the great quality of the standard sound system. Now the sound distorts again when playing music on the iPod, and even if i detach the cable and replace it any number of times there is little difference.

Phaeton :: Fog In Headlights - Water Drops Ran Down Behind The Screen
I realized some "Fog" in both of my Headlights, even Waterdrops ran down behind the screen of one of them... O.K., it's Wintertime and I know the Physics of Humidity and different Temperatures quite well - but this seems a little bit too much for me. VW says, this is "normal" but I do not think so. How to get the humidity out? It's not so easy to get them open, because I got the same double Xenon headlights...

Acquired my Phaeton about three weeks ago and could not be happier. Need to understand one of the front display screen options? I'm a little confused as to why "0" is displayed as "speed" when the car was actually going about 50 mph when the photo was snapped.

View 5 RepliesPhaeton :: Main Screen Above Center Console Went Blank
Was driving today- had been on the road for about 30 mins, when suddenly the main screen above the center console went blank. It stayed blank for about 20s, and then returned to the A/C screen. I can't remember what it was on before it went blank - but it wasn't A/C. It is as though it's rebooted. It's forgotten what radio band and station it was on, but all other settings seem to have remained. No other sensations in the car - the multifunction display in the instrument cluster didn't blink.

View 1 RepliesPhaeton :: Distance Remaining Disappeared On Nav Screen In Instrument Cluster
I've had a Phaeton since January and love it. I noticed yesterday that the "distance remaining" figure in the small nav screen in the instrument cluster has disappeared: it now shows "---" instead of, say, "150 mi." Refilling the gas tank hasn't made a difference. Why the car has started refusing to estimate? Since that's the display that shows all the time while driving, it's particularly noticeable.

Screen go black, radio shut off, then reset itself while driving over and over again. Have the car parked and radio stays on after you pull the key and set the alarm. And the final piece, the alarm goes off three times no lights flashing then stops sitting in a garage, not outside. Is this a short ? I have two brand new batteries, new starter new altenator.

My system won't save the standby after 10 seconds setting. Every time I get into the car, I have to turn it on again.
Also, there's a setting that says it'll display the date and time while in standby mode but it never does when selected. It's just a black screen until I set it off with the sensor.
Phaeton :: Check Lights Message Came Up On Screen With Loud Warning Chime Nonstop
One of my taillights stopped functioning last night on my drive home. The "check lights" message came up on screen, accompanied by a loud warning chime. However, it wouldn't stop. It kept flashing "check lights" over and over, and kept repeating the chime every few seconds for my entire ride home.
This morning, everything seems to be OK. The taillight is still out, but it's not chiming repeatedly (at least for now). What caused my Phaeton to freak out like that?
