Phaeton :: 2005 - Instrument Panel Air Vent Cover Does Not Close When It Should?
Just got took delivery on a 05 Phaeton. After reading thru most of the newbie FAQ section and getting all the setting done on the vehicle, I turned off the ignition and the center vent wouldn't come down. I tried getting it open and close a couple of times via the climate control with no luck. I tried starting and stopping the engine, the locking and unlocking from the outside. You guys think it's just broke?
Good thing this is still under factory warranty, better make a call to the VW dealer and schedule an appointment.
Phaeton :: Do Dash Vent Doors Close
Do the outboard vents close like the vents around the clock? My center one opens and closes with the "need' of the A/C system, but the outboard ones are only open.

I know this might sound completely petty (so much so that I daren't ask the service centre about it!), but the air vent cover on the driver's side has started making a thnk and judders when opening. When closing, it also closes more slowly than the others.
View 3 RepliesPhaeton :: Green Smiley Face Displaying In Instrument Panel?
Driving home tonight I noticed a green smiley face with three curvy lines (kind of like heat rising) in the top left corner of the instrument panel display (where you can display the mileage stats, radio station, etc).
I have gone through the manuals a couple of times and the FAQs here and have not been able to determine what it means.
I assume since it is green it is not a critical warning, but I would like to know what it means. Have had my Phaeton for three months and have not seen it before. Leaving Tuesday morning for a 1,000 mile week long trip.
Ford Excursion :: 2001 - Rear Vent Quarter Panel Windows Stuck Open
I have 2001 EX with the 7.3 and my rear vent windows stuck open and I am stumped as to what might be the culprit. There isn't any power getting to the switches in the overhead console.
I replaced the relay 204 in the engine compartment, I believe that is the correct one.
Where the actual fuse is located for this and its number? Because both of them are stuck open not just one side.
Phaeton :: Any Way To Keep Front Vent Covers Open With Car Off?
I took my car in for its first detail (while mine, that is). How to keep the front vent covers open with the car off, for purposes of cleaning the vent directional slats. The best I could figure out in a hurry was, with the key in accessory or the engine on, to switch climate to manual (direct air) to open the covers, set the fan to lowest speed (one light segment above off,) and position the vent switches to furthest left light illuminated (again, one position above off.) Is there any way to keep the covers open with the car, or at least the HVAC fan, off?
View 4 RepliesPhaeton :: Driver Side Air Vent Is Stuck In Open Position
My driver's side air vent is stuck in the open position. I can coax it down with a piece of wire, and it will then (sort of) engage with the motor and move up automatically when activated (again with a bit of coaxing), but then gets stuck again... Not sure if it's the motor or gears/teeth on the vent itself...? Looking for instructions for removing the motor? Apparently it's straight-forward...?
View 5 RepliesFord A/C :: 1998 - Vent Window Won't Close Tight?
Just picked up a 1988 brick nose F-150 4x4, 4.9, 5 speed, manual windows and locks, A/C, power steering. Was a southern truck for most of its life so no REAL rust, just some "surface drust". Lots of character where the paint has worn off. Trying to fix some of the small problems and any mechanical problems I can find.
The problem I'm looking to fix is the drivers side vent window. I found that the lower mounting bracket was broke loose from the vertical track that guides the door widow and holds the vent. I welded the small bracket back on in its original location, but, when it is closed and locked, the front of the vent is still open by about 1/8" in the front. I'm was thinking the lower pivot was bent to the inside, but after looking it over it appears fine. I cant see where the problem is. If I push the front inside corner to force it to close, the rear lock ends up with a 1/4"-3/8" gap.
I did also find under the vent window (when I pulled it) the metal bridge connecting the outside skin of the door to the inside was cracked almost to the point of a complete separation. That will get welded tomorrow.
Camry :: Removing Passenger Side Air Vent Cover?
using a can of compressed air to clean the dust in the vents and the straw came loose and now its stuck inside the vent and whenever I make a turn I can hear the straw rolling around.
How do I actually remove the passenger side air vent cover? (nearest to the door) I tried to pry on it with a screwdriver but it doesn't seem like it wants to move. I actually asked the local dealer and they said I would have to remove the whole dash to access inside the vent. Do I really need to remove the whole dash or should I try to apply more pressure?

View 1 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: Transmission Signal Came Up On Instrument Panel
I bought a dsg golf tdi 2011 last week. this week, while i was driving, after a sudden jerk, some kind of transmission problem signal came up on the instrument panel. since then, the car will not pick up the 1st gear after a complete stop (nor other gear). I would have to restart the car to get it going. When i got back i noticed that there is some kind of oily liquid dripping down under the car.
what kind of action should i take? I called the dealer and am towing the car to the shop tomorrow. They are saying they would fix it but i think i deserve a refund or replacement at least. Seeing it break down in a week makes the car untrustworthy. plus, it would devalue the car as well, right?

Proud new owner of V8 Touareg here. I am hearing a faint "electrical" buzz from the 3" LCD Panel on the instrument panel. Noticeable while the engine is off, while engine is running, anytime the LCD panel is on. Dealer tells me this is a normal noise. Is this "normal" for the MFI?
