Touareg :: Downshifting Warning Lights Come On Sometimes Blips The Throttle
When my TREG is downshifting from 3rd to 2nd gear, it sometimes blips the throttle just a bit before settling into 2nd. Almost like one would do when down shifting a manual transmission.

Those of you w/the "sport exhaust" on later 04's and 05's, at 80- MPH ... I get an engine exhaust resonance that varies with throttle. On throttle bad whine, off throttle no issue. Go 75 it's ok. Go 85 it's ok. My dealer hasn't heard of this. Not sure what can be done but on a long trip the drone will drive you nuts.

View 6 RepliesSonata NF (2006-10) :: Check Engine And ESC Lights Come On - Car Has No Throttle / Pedal Response
2009 Limited, 3.3L, 65000 miles.
Car starts, check engine light and ESC light come on. The car has no throttle/pedal response. It will not go above idle speed and it doesn't matter how much the fuel pedal is pressed. So we've turned around and returned to where we started.
The first time I let the car sit for five minutes and started it. No problems for four weeks. Yesterday, we tried that four times and that didn't work. I disconnected the battery for five minutes and the car works normally again.
Ford - Taurus :: 2004 - Transmission Rebuild Effecting Steering Wheel Alignment
2004 Ford Taurus - transmission was going out last Aug - had it rebuilt (new seals and torque converter) got it back steering wheel was slightly off (1/2 inch) of being the center when driving straight. Took a while to get it back to the shop - life happens - took back today - said they did everything they could and really needs an alignment which they do not do - drove it home after hanging out at the shop for 5 hours. The steering wheel is now off 2 inches from center and the car is pulling noticeably to the right. Going back tomorrow - but they are saying that it was not them and that I need to pay for an alignment.
View 3 RepliesTouareg :: 2007 FSI V8 Would Not Start - No Power Other Than Interior Lights
The other day my daughter's 07 FSI v8 would not start; no power other than interior lights: no instrument power, no seat power, etc. Assumed a dead battery. Hooked jumper-cables, the fan start running, the panel came alive, it cranks, yet the air suspension lock is stuck on, EPS off is stuck on, etc.; assumed a dead battery caused all of this, since the alternator is pegging 14 and we have had a long cold spell. We drive it to the dealer an hour away to get the battery replaced; they test the battery and say its fine; no problems with the computer check-out. They say it must have been a random event; or something ran-down the battery (which is impossible, since you can't leave anything on).
No issues a week later, except I noticed the check-engine and the EPC amber lights are on. However, since my wife brought it back from the dealer, I don't know if these are error codes that were never reset from the initial event or if they are new. Will have to go back to the dealer to reset; check-out. My theory is the fan stuck on for some reason (since it will run independent of the cockpit power) and the battery charged-up on the one-hour drive to the dealer, thus all seemed OK to the dealer.
Touareg :: Interior Lights Stayed On When Shut Down The Engine
Last night I drove to pick up my wife from work, well I got to the place and put the Touareg in park and shutdown the engine. The light switch was in Auto as it was getting dark and the lights had come on while I was enroute.
When I shut down the engine the interior lights stayed on, as well as the taillights I noticed. I sat in the car waiting for 10-15 minutes listening to the radio with the interior lights on. Was I draining my battery? Should I not do this in the future by switching the light switch to off from auto?
Touareg :: How To Do The Throttle Reset
So what am I doing wrong, if anything? I followed TREKKing inCO's directions how to do the throttle reset, except I forgot to take out the key when restarting and not sure if that makes any difference. But when I went to restart, the brake pedal cannot be pushed down until the car starts. I almost thought it was stuck. This happens every time I do the reset procedure, which is 3X so far.
(I just had the upgrade LOJACK done and I thought the tech messed up something in the electronics now. Hope it's my imagination. My son is test driving right now for me.....bad move on my part.)
Touareg :: 2006 V8 - Lag In Throttle Response
We love our Touareg, but one things plagues our truck. There is a terrible lag in throttle response. We press the pedal down some, nothing, press some more, little to nothing nothing (like it is starting to crawl), press some more and ZOOM - the truck takes off. Kinda hard to drive like that... Is this expected behavior or is there a programmer to fix it? We have an 06 V8 and have not had any luck finding one so far.
View 3 RepliesTouareg :: 2007 V8 - Check Engine Light Keeps Coming On / Code P0215 And P0220
Got these codes after my check engine light came on.Cleared the light with my OBD2 scanner several time but it kept coming back on. One week at the dealer who replaced a 'sensor' after vegging it and talking to the VW Tech line! Light came back on the same day I picked up the Touareg from the dealer :confused. Dealer thinking about what to do next.

Touareg :: TSB For Throttle Hesitation Downloaded, Car Won't Start Now
Took my 04 V8 in Monday AM for airbag fault, throttle hesitation, and remote key fob/keyless entry range (lack thereof). Called the dealer yesterday and service rep says airbag and remote range fixed OK, but after TSB for throttle hesitation was downloaded, the car would no longer start. Service rep explained that the shop foreman had worked on car personally for most of day and still was not able to start car.
View 12 RepliesTouareg :: Whistling Right Front - Variable With Throttle
I have an 04, vin 70k+ V8, Nav/Air Susp. with 35k miles. My problem seems pretty specific:
I have a solid whistle in the front right area of the truck above very slow speeds. It really does sound like air moving, so I was thinking mirror/rack, wheelwell, etc. But, when I push the throttle, even a little, it subsides greatly...almost gone. That's what makes me nervous.
Of all the posts I read, the only one that seems like it might be my problem is the driveshaft bearing, maybe because of the torque, etc placed on it during acceleration (I'm no mechanic). I would think that any aerodynamic type problem would have nothing to do with slight throttle changes.
Am I on track? Common occurrence? Anything I should tell the dealer? I'll probably take all this to them when I do the 40k service. I also got a the running gear fault last week, but it hasn't returned. Do you think my Air Susp seals/piston rings are going too?
Touareg :: 2004 V8 - Clunking When Shifting, Going On And Off Throttle
My 2004 V8 clunks when shifting gears, causing the engine to oscillate right through the seat. It also happens when driving a steady speed, e.g., 10MPH in traffic, and you goose the gas or release the gas altogether. So far:
1. Replaced transmission valve body
2. Replaced stepper motor
3. Replaced rear propellor shaft and bearing
I think this started with a reflash of the trans to cure the death lag.

Avalon 2005-12 :: 2007 XLS - Check Engine / VSC And TCS Lights Came On Together
I am driving a 2007 Avalon XLS with about 71,000 miles. These lights came on together yesterday. After consulting this forum, I checked the gas cap and found it was indeed loose (or at least had not been engaged with any of the "required" three clicks.) I closed the gas cap tightly and restarted the car. The lights promptly came back on.
I drove to AutoZone where someone pulled the codes: P0306 and P0356. They gave me a printout suggesting the number 6 cylinder was misfiring (P0306) and an ignition coil circuit fault (P0356).
Dodge - Ram :: 2007 - Gas Cap And Check Engine Lights Will Not Stay Off
I have a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 4.7 V8 that the gas cap and check engine lights will not stay off. The gas cap was replaced with a factory gas cap. Smoke and vacuum checks showed no leaks. The lights can be reset but after a couple of days first the gas cap then the check engine lights come back on. Disconnecting the battery did not work either.
View 3 RepliesTouareg :: 2004 - Throttle Lag Only At Traffic Sign / Other Short Stop
I've read the throttle lag posts with interest. Ours only lags when performing a "California" stop where you go from the brake to the gas and look for an instant pick up. Seem to have about a second of delay before anything happens. Of course this causes all sorts of unnecessary lurching and I don't like it. Does everyone else experience this as part of their throttle lag problem?

Prius (Gen 2) :: 2007 Won't Go Into Drive - 6 Warning Lights / Gas Engine Cuts Out
This afternoon my 2007 made a long beep, popped up the red brake, traction control, ! triangle, ABS, VSC and check engine lights. It followed up by the gas engine cutting out and we had to coast to a shady spot (over 112 degrees at the time). After we pushed it into a parking spot we tried to turn the car on and off and it wouldn't allow us to change it to drive or reverse.
