Golf/GTI VI :: 2010 - Unable To Remove Rear Side Headrest In Order To Install Child Seat
I have a 2010 4 door GTI. I'd like to install my daughter's front facing Britax child seat either in the rear right or rear central position. However, in either case, I'm finding that most of the rear weight ends up on the headrest and I would like to simply remove the headrest from that seating position.
I read in the user manual that to remove the headrest,I pull it to it's highest position and then push the button on the right side of the plastic entrance of the head rest into the seat, and 'simply' pull the headrest vertical out of the seat.
This is similar to how this was done in other cars I've owned. However it is not working for me with the GTI. Once I pull the headrest to the highest possible position I can get to, I press the button but the headrest simply refuses to come out. I've tried this on the other rear seat and same problem. With the middle rear seat I can't seem to pull the headrest out beyond its lowest position.
Phaeton :: Driver Side Headrest Stuck After Manual Adjustment
I have a 2011 Phaeton with manually adjustable headrests on the front seats, haven't checked the rears, the drivers headrest stuck in the up position after moving it to clean underneath, pushed the button to lower the headrest with no luck and noticed the button was loose and not seated properly so I pulled it all the way out long piece of plastic with a small plastic pin on the end, put it back in a it bends the pin to the side, so decided to check out the passenger side it has a shorter piece of plastic with the same piece of plastic on the end and you guessed it that won't go back in either.

The headrest of back seat will bend over when fold down the seat. But one of the headrests can't go back to original up position. The dealer has adjusted the cable but this just temporarily fixed the problem. The problem is back again. I will go back to dealer but can they really fix it? Should I ask for a replacement of the whole seat?
View 1 RepliesPhaeton :: 2004 - Driver Headrest Is Not Working?
My 04 was in for blown subwoofer replacements. After that, the drivers headrest is not working. I suspect one of the techs might have been leaning on the switch and fried the motor. All other seat functions are OK. Is there a separate (buried) fuse for the headrest motor? Is it next to impossible to get to?? Also, I'm going to start trying to dissasemble the dash to get to the A/C vent cover motors. I have parts ordered, and I'll try to keep you all informed. Should be interesting.

The driver and front pax headrest won't stay up on my '11 GX. They have the RSES installed. I don't know if that has anything to do with it, but it seems odd that both headrests would experience the same problem. When I raise them, they just fall right down to the lowest position with a thunk.
If I wiggle the passenger one, sometimes it will stay up. It looks like there are a couple of plastic bushings that aren't seated properly, but when I push them down, they just ride up again when I raise the headrest.
I'll take it to the dealer next week, as this should be covered under warranty, but I'd like to know if this is a known issue and if there is anything I can do to prevent it from happening again.
Phaeton :: 2006 V8 - Non Functional Rear Seat Heater / Cooler
I recently purchased an 06 V8 Phaeton that has just about all the options except the 4 seat package. Other than the notoriously finicky TPMS, the rear seat heater and cooler does not work at all. The rear seat lumbar adjustment and massage features work properly. From what I can determine from service manuals the rear seat heaters and coolers are controlled by J522 Rear Seat.
VCDS Scan:
Address 66: Seat, Rear Labels: None
Part No: 3D0 959 860 C
Component: Sitzmemory D1 H 1724
Coding: 0000001
Shop #: WSC 00000 000 00000
VCID: 2F6D7837BD8E8246D7-5140
No fault code found.
Now I first suspected that the wheels in the center console may not be functional, because the seat has power. When I took a look at the measurement blocks they responded from 0.36V - 5V on both on the controller.
My next thought is that the controller isn't coded/configured for the rear seat heaters/coolers? Looking for the details of this controller? What should I check next?

I bought mine new in 2005, it is a high gloss black exterior with black interior. The wealth of knowledge pouring out from this site about this car is amazing. Recently, tonight actually, I noticed that the light for the passenger rear seat heat/cool control is out. I was wondering if this is something that I can replace myself - or I should go to the dealer for.

I have been using it a lot over the last 2 years since I bought my 2005 3.0 TDi. Love the car, have had a few issues but nothing major. I do now have an issue with the seat belt height adjustment in the passenger side. It will go down, but not up....slightly annoying as you can imagine. When I press the button to raise the belt, nothing happens. Seat are 18 ways ventilated massage seats.
View 3 RepliesPhaeton :: How To Turn On Overhead Lights In Rear Cabin From Driver Seat
In my 7, if I hit the roof console center light button, it would illuminate both the front of the cabin, and my accent lights in the rear cabin, allowing me to see the kids in the back at night or ensure they have light if they can't find something.
On the Phaeton, I have not yet been able to figure out how the driver can turn on the rear cabin lights. I have the lights set on to come on when the door opens, but obviously that isn't an option underway. Is there a way for the driver to illuminate the whole cabin from the drivers seat?

My dealer looked at all of the 07 Touaregs on the lot and they all were the same. My 04 V8 never had the problem of working itself up.
