Prius (2010-12) :: Tinny Clunking Sounding Rattle - Catalytic Converter Failing

Took my car to a shop today after I'd been experiencing a "tinny clunking" sounding rattle. I was worried it might be my catalytic converter and after couple of bumps on the exhaust system while on the lift, the tech thought this was indeed the case. Replacing the catalytic converter could be a $1500+ job from what I hear if replaced by toyota.

Prius (2010-12) :: Bluetooth Shuts Down After 30sec Into Phone Conversation

I just got my prius last week! so cute and shiny and new... but...on day 1, I paired my phone (droid razr maxx hd) to the car and talked for about 5 min without issue.

the next day, this behavior started... I turn on my car, after about 30-60s, the phone and car pair. If I make a phone call right away, the car Bluetooth will turn off after 30s. If I don't make a call right away, after several minutes, the Bluetooth will once again shut down. The only way to turn it back on is to turn off and restart the car. (My phone pairs just fine with my 2007 prius)

I read online that the current razr operating system has issues... but never heard of this. The dealership is confused by the issue. Wondering if any of you experienced this and had the issue resolved?

Prius (2010-12) :: Locking The Doors When Hatchback Is Still Open

I've got a prius 2010, how do I lock the car with one of the doors (or hatchback) still open? The car just beeps at you until you close a door... And then it stops beeping, but doesn't lock. I find this to be exceedingly annoying, I'm surprised I couldn't find more than 1 other thread complaining about it. I find it annoying in two common situations:

a) I plan on locking the car with the fob, filling both of my hands full of things and pushing the door shut with my butt. I have no free hands left to find the fob in my pocket and lock the door, or walk around to the driver's side of the car to touch the lock sensor.

b) A passenger is dawdling getting all their stuff ready and plans to catch up with me in 30 seconds. I need the lock the car before I walk away.

Santa Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Radio Stalled By Bluetooth Pairing

My 2010 Santa Fe came with the GPS, backup camera, satellite bluetooth capable head unit. It started acting up after being parked for 4 months. I noticed a delay in the display response to a setting change. Change an FM station preset and it would take the head unit 20-30 secs to show that change.

Did everything suggested, reset unit several times nothing worked until I de-paired all bluetooth devices. Now it works great.

Golf/GTI VI :: 2010 - Failing HID Ballast?

I've got a 2010 GTI with xenons, fogs are vag'd to turn on at low speed and when the turn signal comes on. Now there's a loud noise shortly after driving. Go to turn at low speed and noise can be heard and message comes on to check low beam light. Headlight, fog and turn signal are all affected at the same time especially if I'm stopped at a light with turn signal on. Talked to a friend that's a tech at VW and he said its most likely the ballast and when I talked to him and his parts guys they had never replaced one.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Bluetooth Appears Connected But Can't Switch To Radio

Have non-Nav system. The "nav" display works OK, I can get into climate control, Info, Setting, etc. When I turn on the car, message comes up that Bluetooth is connected. But I can't switch to radio or CD and can't control it from a steering wheel either.

I checked all the fuses - all ok. Took the whole unit out of the dashboard, checked all the wire harness connectors in the back - all good. Also, disconnected Vaistech SLS and VML, just to make sure - still audio is off.

Why I can't turn the audio back on

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Radio Locking Up During Mp3 Play

I have the base model radio in my Sonata. I usually just keep a thumb drive in it to play music from so I don't have to worry about ipod or cds being stolen or anything.

About three times a week on random songs, the player locks up. Filename stays displayed in a large font, and never plays. When this happens, the CD player also won't work. The only cure so far is to turn the car off for a few minutes, the start it again. Just powering off the radio itself doesn't seem to work. All will be well for a few days then it will happen again.

I have eliminated the thumb drive and the music files as causing this.

Golf/GTI VI :: During Call Via Bluetooth, Music Started Streaming

car: GOLF TDI '10 with premium radio unit *(but not the one with navigation or anything). I had my phone plugged in to charge up, and got a call, so my bluetooth kicked in and i started the conversation, but during my conversation i disconnected the phone from the charger, and all of a sudden music starts playing through my speakers all while i'm having a conversation. First i thought it was the other person's music on the background or something, but it was me, i had to stop the music on my iphone. After conversation ended, music kicked back in automatically from my iphone again.
