Touareg :: TPMS And Flat Tyre Warning Message
Recently replaced the front tire pressure monitor sensors from my '04 T V8. Since then the readings are fine with the only exception that I do get the "FLAT TYRE" warning a few minutes after I start my trip and for about 2-3 minutes until it goes off again. Shall I take it back to the dealer for reprogramming, is it something else I should look for...
View 1 RepliesTouareg :: 2004 - Flat Tyre Warning On MFD While Accelerating At 50 Mph?
My 2004 V-8 Touareg has 19000 miles. The other day I started receiving "Flat Tyre" warnings on the MFD. The warning only appears when I accellerate to about 50 mph. It disappears when I come to a stop. The air pressure in all tires remains consistent (no leaks) and resetting the TPMS system hasn't corrected the problem. What's causing this.

Touareg :: 2004 V8 - TPMS Indicates A Flat Tyre Often
I have a 2004 V8 with 104,000 miles. For the last two weeks every time I go out in the morning a few miles from home the tire pressure monitor tells me I have a flat tyre. This warning light goes off when I continue to drive. This does not happen every day but I have noted this happen when it rainy or is particularly humid.

In the past month I have had 4 instances (approx. once per week) of vehicle vibration/shuddering. The first time I thought for sure I had a flat tire and pulled over immediately and had a look at my tires. All was fine and I continued to drive with no further vibration.
My Prius v ( lowercase v for the Prius v wagon ) has 50,000 kilometers. Has had all required service at our local Toyota dealer. It has always been a pleasure to drive, smooth and quiet. Has only been on paved roads and the tires are in excellent condition.
Touareg :: Defective Wheel On Board And Flat Tyre Messages
I've got an '04 Touareg V8, and i am getting "Defective Wheel on Board" and "Flat Tyre" messages in the MF1 display (with associated annoying-beeping). I am assuming that it's time to replace one or more of the TPMS sensors.
- My understanding is that one cannot simply replace the batteries, the entire sensor needs replacing.
- I assume all 4 need to be replaced as a sat.

What is wrong and do i need to take it to the delaer.
View 6 RepliesPhaeton :: TPMS Sensor - Flat Tire Warning Comes At Virtually The Same Time When Drive
I have one TPMS sensor that incorrectly tells me I have a flat when I do not. I presume the sensor is faulty because the wheel was moved to the rear as part of a recent service and the problem moved with the wheel.
What I find peculiar is that the flat tire warning comes at virtually the same time when I drive, about ten or so minutes into the journey, and leaves about five minutes later, usually not to return. Indeed, when I occasionally drive the car to work, I know when the signal will come on, within about .25 mile.
Phaeton :: Tyre Pressure Monitoring System Fault Messages Came On
Doesn't seem to be any pattern to it, kind of random; but this message has been popping up a bit lately. Of course it never seems to do this when at the dealer for service.

I had the car in to replace the inner CV boot and repair a leaking trans flex seal. About 30 minutes after I left the shop, I lost all acceleration and the car basically crawls around. Halfway to work and almost late for meetings, I was afraid it was a failing fuel pump so I rigged both fuel pump relays closed and it seemed to get better... I pulled the relays while at work, re-inserted at the end of the day and headed home. About halfway home the acceleration issues came back (with the rigged relays), and I barely made it to my driveway. Pulled codes, and see these:
16732 - Camshaft Position Sensor (G163)
P0348 - 001 - Short to Plus - MIL ON
18711 - Leak in Air Intake System
P2279 - 002 - Lower Limit Exceeded - MIL ON
16408 - Bank 2: Camshaft B (Exhaust)
P0024 - 008 - Retard Setpoint not Reached (Over-Advanced) - MIL ON
I checked for vacuum leaks and can't seem to find anything tell-tale. I have seen the Camshaft Position Sensor before, but the car ran fine. Probably time to get around to replacing it, but what about the Leak in Air Intake System? Car really hates to idle. Also, MIL is pretty much always on for me due to an unhappy trans that disables ESP.
Phaeton :: 2005 - Trunk Nonoperative After Battery Goes Flat
o5 P with a bad brake light switch (going in next week) ran the left battery flat. Charged it back up and car runs fine but electric trunk is now non-op. Button on emblem will make a click and flash taillights but no action. Same with fob. Same with button on trunk and button in door. Valet switch is off. I tried the reset with manual trunk open, fob, button but no joy. I believe I read there's a trunk reset in VagCom. Latch and manual key work fine. Did I blow a fuse to the latch?
View 3 RepliesTouareg :: MFI Flashes Warning - Flat Tire?
Last Sunday, my wife and I are driving down the highway. MFI flashes a warning something like "You have a Flat Tire!", then changes to "Faulty Tire" indicator.
Treg seems to be driving fine, I said to wife - probably electrical problem assuming the tire pressure sensor isn't working. Pull over, get out, look at tires, they don't look flat. Get back in, look at tire pressure monitor, which shows left rear tire is flat. Get back out, look at tire closer - hear hissing noise. Sure enough, We've got a nail in the tire.
Put suspension in jack mode, jack it up, put on spare tire, pump it up from air compressor, take tire to get fixed. (Manual talks about removing air compressor and hooking it to battery under hood? which is wrong).
Golf/GTI VI :: Flat Tire - No Low Pressure Warning
2012 Golf TDI... No tpms? I just got back from a road trip and noticed I have a flat and most likely drove on it for an hour. I thought the car came with a tpms system. I checked the glove box and there is no reset button (which I read should be there if you have the new tpms system that works with the abs system). I have the Canadian Highline 2012 Golf. I read through the manual and didn't find anything about tpms. Does this come with the GTI only?
View 6 RepliesPhaeton :: 2003 - Engine Doesn't Start After Flat Battery Replacement On W12
The Phaeton is a 2003 6.0 W12 model. The car used to be a demo car and has currently around 80.000 km. It is not equipped with a keyless entry system. I recently put an Xcarlink device to connect my iPod. All the rest is a standard equipment (basically all available at that moment).
The problem with the car started when I could not open from the remote key. I tried to open the driver door, but the never used lock jammed. The only option was opening the trunk using the key. I had to lift the lid using some force against the dumpers, but it worked.
As the both batteries on the car were original 2003 (so went through the showroom period as well) I new that they cause the problem.
I bought two new batteries and replaced them. I proceeded according to the service manual so disconnected the right battery -, right +, left -, left +. I am pretty convinced that I did not blow the battery isolator. The left battery applied is 95Ah in place of 92 before. It has the max current of 800 A in place of 850 A. The right battery is exactly the same specification as before. After testing the old batteries the left one showed current of 2.8V so it was definitely broken. The right one seemed to be OK (12.58V)
After replacing the batteries I could open the car and all the entertainment systems and electronics inside would work except for:
1) The suspension lifting and tire pressure warning lights are on.
2) I cannot start the engine - it does not crank at all even using the emergency mode - two times start and back to accessories mode
3) The trunk lid does not close automatically.
I am getting the car towed to the local VW dealer tomorrow, but I am afraid they will see the Phaeton for the first time in their lives (small Dutch dealer nearby Utrecht), so I am a bit afraid of the car.
Golf VI R :: Flat Tire Warning - Pressure On All 4 Tires At Exactly 40 PSI
I just got 4 new tires installed, running 235-40/18 setup (stock wheels.) On the drive home, the flat tire warning sign came on. I've tried to used the SET button in the glove compartment to deactivate it. That did not work (it flashed one time then stay on).
I check the pressure on all 4 tires and they're all at exactly 40PSI. What the problem could be and how to turn this pos off without going to the dealership?

View 6 RepliesSonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Does TPMS Flat Tire Warning Go Away On Its Own When Fixed?
Had the first flat, and after it was fixed, screen warning and yellow TPMS light don't go away. Does it reset itself automatically after 'x' ignition cycles, or do we need one of those TPMS tools to reset it? No mention of this in the manual. Need to know before I blame Discount Tire for damaging the sensor. But since they don't charge to fix flats, don't know if I'd be able to get anything from them.
It's a 2011 Sonata Limited.

While highway driving the other day the Flat Tire Warning flashed and beeped for no reason. It flashed on and off for about an hour. Is this a faulty pressure sensor?

I was driving down the road and the rpm gauge went crazy. Then it flat lined at zero. The voltage warning light came on then the car stalled. It then wouldn't restart. Tried jump starting and tightening the battery cables. After sitting a while after I tried starting it I heard a sound like a demon grumbling I think it may have been a pump of some sort.
