Touareg :: AC Fans Do Not Start Right Away
When I start the T-Reg for the first time, shouldn't the fans blow out hard and then die down when the proper temperature is achieved? For the past 2 days, I'v pulled out of the garage and I can hear the fan noise blowing hard but there's nothing coming out of the AC vents. I keep the setting on Auto 72 deg. Once I fool around with the fan settings, then the AC comes on and stays on for the rest of the day.
I remember the fans came on strong when I had the Jetta and then in two or three minutes, they regulated the temp and died down a bit. Does it take a long time for the fans to come up on Auto, or is something not right?
Within 5 minutes it seems to work and they're cool, but until it starts working, I hear the fan noise but feel nothing. I have the vents opened fully, or should they be set in the middle?
Touareg :: AC Does Not Start To Work When Car Idling
I have an 04 T-reg w/ 15k miles on it, the problem that i am having is with the A/C. It works for the most part but some days its just not that cold. Usually when idling or after returning to the car after 30 minutes or so the a/c just doesn't seem to recover. Its not warm air but its certainly now cold air.
View 8 RepliesTouareg :: Dead Battery - Won't Start
I got my V8 back from a dead battery for the 2nd time. As usual, they have not found the problem. They said that there isn't any battery drain and the battery holds a charge. This time I took it back to my dealer I purchased from, not that it means anything.
I know there have been a lot of talk about different things that are causing the problem/ fixing the problem, but I have noticed that it may not be some of the ECU's, Navi/radio, etc. but could it be that when the vehicle is actually running the Alternator may not be charging the system significantly while driving when things are turned on, as in multiple things like AC/Heater, Fogs, heated seats, etc at the same time? Reason is that I have noticed with my V8, if you turn off all of these things the voltage gauge reads very close to 14 Volts and when you turn them on, it drops/cycles to about 13.75-13.5 volts. The dealer loaned me a V6 Touareg and with all these things on, the Voltage Gauge read 14 Volts solid most of the time or pretty close to. Meaning that the Alternator may be keeping up with all the things turned on (Current Draw).
With my V8, if you have these things on and you are running around town starting/ stopping without driving it for a period of time the Alternator may not be sufficiently charging the battery and then when you park it like overnight with the normal drain on the system in off state you may not be able to start it. Could there be something there or am I way off? Since they are always looking at the battery and if there is any drain on the system when it's off, is the alternator keeping up with the Touareg's requirements when it is running?
Touareg :: V8 Would Not Start - Key Locked In The Ignition
MY V8 Touareg with P+, Nav etc is in the shop today...My wife went to start it yesterday and the car completely went crazy...it would not start, the lights went crazy and finally the key was locked in the ignition....This is the second time this has happened...I'm getting pretty frustrated. Dealer was no support, they think we don't know how to start the car!
Anyway, looking into my State Lemon Law. Car is great, but don't want to spend $50K on a car that won't start and cause so many issues! Roadside has been called twice thus far. Tha car has 1,900 miles on it. The Tire gauge does not work, the memory seats don't work. I think the car is great, but too many issues.
Touareg :: 2004 - Replaced Everything But Still Car Won't Start
Well I have a 2004 Gremlin that has gone through all the fixes (alternator cable, battery, even replaced some control module) go into car and won't turn over nothing.
See reports to reset the yellow battery isolation switch. Where the hell is this? What carpet do you remove? I tried to find it and no luck. There are those two panels on the floor (one on right side of chair and one on left corner) but those apparently are to access the battery tilt the chair back.
Touareg :: Blue Smoke At Start Up?
Ok I thought I remembered reading about this in the past. This morning I detailed the V8 T (19K miles) and started it to back it out of the garage. Got a big puff of blue/white smoke out the back. I searched but found nothing. Should I finally run to the nearest BMW dealer for an X5?

I have an 04 touareg, When I start to accelerate at about 15-20 mpg, it jerks the vehicle once and again at about 40mph. What is wrong?
Another question, when I start to brake and then car jerks once at about 25-30mph, is there something wrong with my brakes?
I went to Volkswagen and they did a check and they said nothing was wrong. I still feel the jerk after the inspection.
Touareg :: At Start Up Stinky Smoke?
I was considering getting a keyless start to preclude the considerable stinky smoke that occurs upon start up in the winter mornings. But it does this in the summer mornings too? How do you know if a keyless start would prevent this from happening?

After parking my car last night, this morning the key wouldn't work. So I manually opened the car door, and try to start the car. Nothing came on, even the clock. And now the key is stuck in the ignition.
It cant be the battery, because I think it should at least have enough juice to turn the light on.

Touareg :: V6 Dead / Key Got Locked In The Ignition When Tried To Start It
I have a 2.5 years old V6 Touareg with 56k miles. I went out of town for 5 days........Come back and the car is dead: meaning nothing is working, no electrical, nothing. I had to use the physical key to open the door lock. I then tried to start it - nothing and the key got locked in the ignition.
My question is - what can this be? A battery? If yes, how do I replace it? Any other resolutions? This never happened before in 56k miles. Not quite sure what to think. Is there a way to jump this car?

View 1 RepliesTouareg :: Battery Died And V6 Couldn't Start
Bought my 06 Touareg V6 two weeks ago. Well the battery died and couldn't start 10 minutes after I got her home. So the battery was replaced with a new one and it has been fine since.
Well except for the fact that I have a Gray interior and the dealer put on the lower trim panels in front of the driver's seat from a anthracite colored interior!!
Around the trim that would be taken out to replace the battery. I would like to make sure all the parts are there when I get it fixed. [URL]......

View 12 RepliesTouareg :: Misfiring While Accelerating From A Cold Start
For the past few weeks, my Treg has been misfiring while accelerating from a cold start. It only does it when the engine is first started and only the first time you accelerate. Also blows blue smoke out the tailpipes while this is happening. Car is at the dealership right now with a tech and Service Manager scratching their heads. I already did a search for my problem, nothing matched it.
