Touareg :: AC Automatically Turns On When Car Started
Whenever (almost every-time) I start my Treg the A/C comes on. It doesn't matter if I turn it off before (quad zone btw) turning off the car, it still comes on when I start it back up. The fans will be all the way down, but still on (though I don't think the fans are going at all.) Any way to disable this?

This is driving me nuts and my minus sign on the A/C button is worn out because of this. I don't like to use A/C except when it's really hot. Is there any way to use VAG or setting to prevent it from coming on?
View 9 RepliesTouareg :: Engine Light Came On In Cold Weather?
Went on a trip up to MI in cold and snow, and the engine light comes on. Great, I'm thinking, figuring me, the wife and our two babies stranded in another quality VW product. We pull over and call the closest dealer on the cell, and they say to just ignore it unless its flashing. When I got home, I vagged it and it says the cats were below their operational limit - I'm guessing too cold?
Whats the deal here? Can I look forward to engine lights everytime I go out in the cold? (this car is slowly driving me nuts. How can it be so bad and my Audi so good?)

I noticed that the Treg unlocks automatically (without touching or doing anything) when I approach the PASSENGER side of the car, heck sometimes it even automatically unlocks again as soon as I lock it using the button on the passenger side door handle to lock...... this does not happen if i'm standing on the DRIVER side though... it almost seems like the passenger side keyless access antenna is super sensitive or something as the phenomenon does not seem to occure if i'm more than a few (5-6) ft away from the car...... is this normal/abnormal? can it be adjusted somehow in the MFI? I tried to change the door option on the MFI to unlock only one door and the problem seems to go away, but when ALL DOORS is selected, this always happens...

Just got a 2016 V6 Lux. I have a question cerning the electric parking brake.
I noticed that at times when I slowly park into a parking space with an obstacle (such as a wall or another car in front), the electric parking brake would engage automatically. Is this an issue or a feature?
To me, this is annoying since sometimes the electric parking brake would engage when I am not ready to fully stop the car yet (need to park further in). It seems that it is related to the parking sensors.
Touareg :: Side Mirror Was Automatically Adjusted When Driving In Reverse
I picked up my car after 10K service at the local dealer. I get in the car, put tranny in reverse and started driving. Then I noticed that my right mirror is off. So I got out of dealer parking and stopped. Then I looked at the mirror and it was perfectly aligned!
I heard that this feature (mirrors will adjust when you drive in reverse) in Mercedes and some other cars, but nort VW. I was wrong. My Treg has the same feature. The only trick is that your mirror switch in the cabin should be turned to right, like when you try to adjust right passenger mirror. That's it.
Every time you will switch to reverse, you right passenger mirror will turn 30 or more degree down. I was very surprised and pleased that VW has that little feature.

Touareg :: Passenger Side View Mirror Does Not Automatically Tilt When Put Car In Reverse
Firstly, when i put my car in reverse, my passenger side view mirror does not automatically tilt. is there some sort of setting i must go to?
Secondly, I was wondering if it was possible to AUTOMATICALLY fold the side view mirror when i off the engine, or lock the doors, and for them to automatically unfold when i start the engine or unlock the doors! Instead of manually turning the knob.
I went into the Menu, and there was an option under "locks .... ---> mirrors", and i selected sync. Does that have anything to do with my question?
Thirdly, The rain sensing wipers. I have to activate this by pulling the lever up ONE STEP to the intermittent mode right. I tested the rain sensing wipers with a bottle of water! and the sensor is at the rear view mirror. The question is that when i off the engine and leave the rain wipers under Mode ONE (one step up the lever from off) the car doesn't automatically activate the wipers if it rains. I have to push it down to off! then back to INTERMITTENT MODE! Is this normal?

Touareg :: Driver Seat Making Noises When It Automatically Moves Forward And Back
When you have the key in the ignition and have it so the steering wheels moves up and outta the way too? My seats sounds like 3-5 seconds of some serious farting action. Not good when on the phone and someone asks, "whats was that?" I am sure its the leather rubbing on the side of the console, but god damn will it ever stop!? Only 5K on the touareg, so maybe it will go away sooner or later...

View 1 RepliesCamry 2012+ :: System Automatically Switch To Dash - Tempurater Goes To Cold
We have been having this ongoing issue with the ventilation system in our 2013 Camry XLE during cold outside temperatures since last fall.
When the system is in the auto setting and set around 70-72 deg. F, the system delivers a comfortable temperature from the floor vents or a combination of the floor vents and defrost. The temperature that I measure is usually in the 100-115 deg. F range. After about 20 - 30 minutes of driving, the system will switch on the dash vents along with the floor vents. At this time the temperature coming out of the dash vents is cold and frequently measured as low as 53 deg. F. Along with this the floor vents are still delivering warm air. Been an automatic system I would expect the supply temperature to modulate to maintain the cabin temperature to the desired setting but not in this manner. All this is on overcast very cold winter days.
I drove the vehicle the other day when the outside temp was around 12 deg. F with the sun shining resulting in a bit of a greenhouse effect inside. With the control set at 70 deg. F and in auto I noticed that the air was only coming out of the dash vents and was a bit warmer this time (about 60 deg. F). This scenario is a bit more acceptable although the floor area was cold as expected considering the cold outside temperature.
I have taken the car to our dealer who has tried to diagnose the situation and have replaced one sensor that resulted in no change. They have been in contact with Toyotas technical dept. as well for assistance. They are indicating that all the air comes from one box and it is impossible to get colder air from the dash vents. Obviously with our current situation this is not the case. The service manager at the dealer was hoping to test the operation of another similar vehicle but so far has been unsuccessful.
This has been going on since last fall after my wife complained about it and was not happening the previous winter. Presently when this situation occurs we switch the control to manual damper control to shut off the cold air blowing in our faces.

View 19 RepliesCamry :: Check Engine Light Goes On And Automatically Turns Off After Some Time
I have a Toyota camry 2004. My engine check lights goes on and automatically turns off after some time. There is no specific pattern on when it goes on or off. I got it checked for the OBD codes and both the times the mechanic said the codes read a bad O2 sensor on Bank 1.
If the O2 sensor is really bad isn't the light supposed to be on all the time. I wonder it might be something else that is turning my engine lights on.

View 3 RepliesCamry 2012+ :: Hybrid LE - AC Light Automatically Turns On When Auto Button Pressed
I bought my car in 2012. Lets say I have my air on completely custom settings (temp, fan speed, mode). When I press the Auto button the fan speed automatically adjusts based on the temperature I have set, the mode always forces to feet only (sometimes feet and defroster) and the A/C light always comes on.
The only way to keep it in Auto mode while turning the A/C button off is to do the following: Press the Auto button, then press the A/C button to turn it off.
I am just trying to figure out the logic behind why Toyota would force the A/C light every single time the Auto button is pressed, even when it is 5 degrees outside.
So am I correct in turning the A/C light off when in Auto mode and using heat only or does the A/C light come on for a reason? Is it actually running the A/C compressor even in the winter?
