Touareg :: Compass Display Glitches - What To Do Now

I had my TReg in for the 5000 mile service this week. Among the laundry list of items on my punchlist for them I mentioned the compass and the fact it was going on and off and the blue light was sometimes changing from dim to brighter when the headlights are on.

The dealer indicated that VWoA has acknowledged some problems with the compass display and I'm getting a new one.

Touareg :: Compass Display Backlight Flickering?

I complained about this 8 months ago and they replaced the compass display module. Then my battery died about 6 months ago and they replaced the compass control module. Now it's flickering--worse than the first time where the backlight was turning on and off. It's just the backlight that appears to be flickering.

Touareg :: Flashing Temperature On MFI Display And Making Noise While Driving?

Before I go digging in my "information not available at time of printing" owner's manual, is there a reason why the temperature display on the MFI would flash and make a "ding-ding" noise at me while I'm driving?

Prius (Gen 2) :: CD Player Started Malfunctioning - Entire Display Went Off

The other day my CD player in my 04 Prius (130k miles) started malfunctioning.

When I made sharp turn, it tried to eject a CD - and kept trying, turning the radio off. Then a couple of fuses blew and the entire display went off, fuel indicator in dashboard stopped working, and VSC light came on. The dealer replaced the fuses, but they promptly blew again before I left the parking lot. And the speakers stopped working.

Tiguan :: Won't Find Compass On S Model Display?

I cannot find compass on my display? IS this normal for S model? I saw some people use a gps sensor on back door to lure signal into the audio consol. Don't remember exactly. Can I replace mine with a luxury VW Navigation GPS OEM RNS-315 Touch Screen Radio? Try this? Or the compass idea into current basic radio module?

Prius (2004-09) :: Replaced 12V Battery, Intermittent Transmission Parking Malfunctioning

2006 Prius, 114K miles. In the last week started getting the intermittent warning of "There is a problem with the parking transmission lock. Place the car on a flat surface and fully set the parking brake." Car would not start, would only go into neutral. All accessories work fine, seems to be plenty of 12V power. Did a lot of research and determined that the most likely cause was a failing 12V battery. Used the diagnostic mode to check voltages, had 12.1 at "READY", 11.6 under auxiliary loads, and 14.1 with engine on (I did get the car to start eventually but can't figure out how and under what set of circumstances it would start).

So I ordered a 12V battery and replaced it. After replacing, I still had the Hybrid warning light, but after stopping and starting the car 3 times it went away. Car worked fine for a day but now the intermittent warning has returned. With the warning on, the parking lock seems to be fully engaged (car won't roll even on a slope).

Yukon :: 2003 XL - Mirror Temp And Compass Flashing On / Off Then Goes Blank

Rear view mirror, the tempurature/compass work fine when the vehicle is sitting still.

As the car accelerates, the mirror "temp & compass" begin to flash all sorts of digits and then goes blank. Mirror is plugged in properly.

Is there a temp probe somewhere under the hood that could be loose and starts to move upon driving? It works fine when not in motion.

Touareg :: Does Nav Unit Use Compass / Clock?

I am preparing to replace the compass/clock combo in the overhead display with a detachable ham radio head. I am now worried that the navigation unit might use some information provided by the compass. If removing the compass will disable any features on the navigation unit?

I don't know if the module in the overhead display contains the actual compass or if the compass provides any information to the navigation unit to supplement GPS information.

Touareg :: Leak Near Compass Module?

I had a leaky sunroof issue over the weekend. I was driving in rainy weather on I-80 in Sacramento and water started pouring (very steady drip) out of corner of the compass module on Saturday. A few minutes later it started dripping out of another plastic seam towards the rear view mirror.

The head liner also started getting saturated near the compass. I took it to the dealer Monday to fix some other issues, and they said they could not replicate the leak problem, but that they did blow out the drain plugs. I guess my question would be, even if the drains were blocked, how would water get down the head liner and into the compass area?

I look and it appears that the only holes in the sunroof tray are on the sides, which I assume are the drain holes. Did my dealer really do anything by blowing out the drain holes? Additionally, I have only had my Treg for 2 months and have not used the sunroof much due to the weather this year.

Touareg :: Water Dripping From Compass Area

I have been having the drip problem from the area around the compass every time it rains hard and i accelerate. I told the dealer and they stated that the problem was the drainage tubes were clogged and charged me to clean them out. Since then i have had to have the drainage tubes cleaned 3 times and it solves my problem for a short period of time but then i have to do it again.. I have had several cars with sunroof as well as a cheapo explorer and not once did i ever even have to have the tubes cleaned.

Touareg :: How Does Compass / Clock Light Stay On

How to set the compass/clock light above to stay on? I tried looking at my owners manual,but it doesn't say anything about keeping it on only to reset the compass. I always have to press the button, but it only stays on for a few minutes. I want to keep it on permanently when I turn on the lights.
