View 3 RepliesSanta Fe (CM - 2007-12) :: Roof Rails Becoming Quite Loose
I have a 2007 Santa Fe CRD+ with integrated roof rails and roof rack. The roof rails have started to come quite loose - is there a simple way to tighten them? Or is this a main dealer job? I am worried about damaging the trim and there are no obvious bolts, screws etc to be seen
View 1 RepliesFord Excursion :: Removing Of Roof Rack Rails?
Just got a mild lift done on my Ex and still wanting to park it in the garage.
If I remove the useless rails and cross bars that looks like it's still a possibility.
What to fill the holes with? Just torx screws? Anything else I need to do to prevent water leakage?

View 14 RepliesTouareg :: Broken Roof Rack?
I have a new question regarding my Touareg. Recently my roof rack broke, a latch on one side of one of the crossbars broke almost off. The part that the key goes into and pulls away to release its hold to the roof was broken when trying to force it closed after adjusting the rack's position. Can this piece be replaced or does the rack have to be replaced?
View 6 RepliesTouareg :: Roof Rack Locked - How To Unlock
I bought my treg a couple of months ago and it came with the stock roof rack. I never thought anything of it, since I barely use it. But the other day I wanted to see what it looks like if i separated the rack. It looks like it takes a key to unlock it, i thought it was the cars ignition key but it's not. How I could unlock it or get a key to do this?

V6 Touareg, Sunroof, roof racks (locked together at rear.) At certain speeds (40-45mph) there is a loud vibration on the roof. If the sunroof is opened or raised, the vibration stops. Nothing visible on the roof or sunroof which would suggest the cause of the noise.
View 4 RepliesTouareg :: After Mounting Roof Rack Loud Sound Coming
In preparing for my end of lease inspection, I mounted my '04 roof racks back on my Treg, and a few days later, I noticed this very loud hmmm/vibration, sounding almost like a steady fog horn, coming from behind me. It lasted about ten seconds, and at first, all I could think of was "that is not us! Until a few minutes later, when it recurred, and I realized that it was probably going to be speed dependent. I eventually realized that the one thing that was different since the prior week was that I put the racks back on the car. When I installed them, I dropped them into their recessed slots, and slid them back to the rear, where I think they are supposed to make the least noise.
Well, not anymore. I think I have to either slide one forward, say to the next detent in the tracks, or get the dealer to back the X3 up better. I think I will slide the forward rack up some, or take them both out for the last month of the lease.
Touareg :: Sudden Vibration From Roof Rack When Driving On Highway
Driving my V10 at around 140 km/hr (87 mph) along the highway and passing a truck (in a tunnel), all of a sudden there was a violent vibration from the roof rack. It seems like it went into its resonance frequency because as soon as I slowed down it went away, and didn't reappear again.
View 2 RepliesTouareg :: Roof Interior Popping / Squeaking In Cold Weather
As it's gotten colder, I've noticed my roof interior seems to be popping/squeaking, like really cold plastic shifting - hard to explain but when it's warmer, say > 40, I don't have it at all.
View 12 RepliesTouareg :: Vibration Coming From Roof Rack Or Rear Of Vehicle?
Vibration coming from either the roof rack or rear of the vehicle? I seem to get it in cold weather sometimes or when I accelerate from between 40 and about 60 mph. I have checked to see if the roof rack needs tightening but it looks good. Of course, every time I bring in for service, guess what, they cannot replicate the sound.
View 8 RepliesCamry 2012+ :: SE Never Ending Roof Noise?
Took in 4 months ago for the body flex popping. Repaired per the TSB with roof shims. While doing so the dealership creased my roof liner, got grease on my roof shade, scratched the overhead console , and left a scratch on the Nav trim bezel. Needless to say I flipped out! All were replaced at the expense to the dealer. Wife saw the bill which was $2k-billed under warranty repair as apposed to sloppy workmanship in the service department.
Apparently tried to fold the roof liner and left a small crease according to them....actually it was 2ft long on the drivers side. Before they put the new liner in I suggested just pull the seats and center console so they didn't crease the new liner,amazingly it worked. They had my car for a total of 8 days on two separate occasions. I guess I can be a certified tech now.
A month after the popping was gone but a rattle developed on the same side(driver's side). After inspecting I noticed that the roof was off kilter and misaligned slightly. Wife said to let it go till the next oil change which is tomorrow at a different dealership. Apparently there is yet another fix with felt tape or something. Car is only 10 months old and I am about to loose my mind with all the rattles and noises on the cheap plastic interior. On a side note, I just got myself a new 2013 Accord EX-l. It may not be as sporty as my wife's Camry but boy is the fit and finish on the interior done right. Yes there is still plastic but its not the cheap feeling,light weight brushed steel crap that is in my Camry.
Touareg :: Wind Noise Coming At Highways After Roof Racks Are Separated
As it is, my roof racks are separated, as if they were going to carry skis or something else on them. I notice a typical wind noise at highways speeds, not unpleasant, but I wonder if I put them together at the rear, or took them off altogether, it would make much difference. Also, as I take off on cold mornings, I notice exhaust fumes collect on the rear window, then immediately evaporate away.
View 3 RepliesTouareg :: Loud Noise That Sounds Like Something Striking The Roof Above Driver Side
Since taking delivery of my Touareg in Sept. I have, on three or four occasions experienced a loud noise that sounds like something striking the roof above the drivers side. It happened 2 or 3 times last fall and then not again until yesterday. It does not appear to be speed or weather related and obviously there is no sign of anything hitting the roof. The roof rack is correctly assembled at the rear.

We just bought a 2012 se and my wife has been saying it makes a clunk sound while backing up. Sometimes it does it over bumps. It sounds over my head and behind me when driving it. Almost in the pillar area of the back. Anything I can look at. Not taking it to the dealer yet, not a fan of our local place.
View 8 RepliesTouareg :: 2004 - Roof Leak / Significant Rain Drip From Overhead Console
I have a 2004 Touareg V8 (55K miles). Recently I've noted significant rain drippage from the overhead console (sunroof equipped). I've reviewed this forum and note some previous communications regarding similar leakage, which apparently was attributable to poor seals between the outer skin and the sunroof structure (and there has been a TSB released for cars under New Car Warranty).
Is there a system of drains that are accessible (as in my 2000 Jetta, which drains through channels in the door posts) which could become clogged, and which I could unclog (as in my Jetta), before I spend the money and hassle of taking my Touareg to the dealer/service person?
Camry 2012+ :: Clunk Noise In Rear Roof Area When Going Over Bump
I have an intermittent "clunk" noise that appears to be coming from up in the rear roof area when I go a gentle bump (like going over uneven pavement pulling into driveway). It's almost as if there is a large ball bearing up there that rolls around and clunks every once in a while. I've tried opening/closing the sun roof and have bounced up and down on the rear of the vehicle to try to replicate... but no luck.. It's almost as if something hits the roof when going over a bump... but there's nothing there that hit the roof...
