Touareg :: Dash Lights Flickered At Maximum Brightness

The dash brightness dimmer pot. The roller doesn't have much tactile feedback or resistance, so when I rolled it just beyond maximum brightness, the dash lights flickered and went out. [Of course this could also be a feature I'm not aware of... ] Fortunately, dash lights came back on when reducing from max. Best to just find a comfortable setting below max brightness and leave it alone. - IMHO.

Touareg :: Lack Of Sufficient Tension On The Windscreen Wipers

One area we have been disappointed with is the lack of sufficient tension on the windscreen wipers. The local dealer broke the plastic replacing the blade which did nothing to correct the problem. The rear wiper is just as bad, leaving a large area never swiped. The driver side blade leaves a large half bubble shaped area un-wiped in front of the driver.

Outside Temperature Display Is Dim - Brightness Adjustment?

Any way to increase the brightness of the outside temperature display? During the day, when the sun is shinning, it's impossible to read....even if I take my sunglasses off.

It's almost distracting as texting having to stare at the display trying to read the numbers.

The drivers side set temperature display (heat/a-c) is super bright but yet the rest is very difficult to see.

I have 20/20 vision.

I tried the dash brightness adjustment (odometer reset) but that has no effect.

Golf/GTI VI :: Dashboard Lighting Brightness Adjustment?

Is there anyway to adjust the brightness of the dashboard (speedometer, tachometer, etc) display when the headlights are not on??? Sometimes if its just cloudy outside and there's no reason to have the headlights turned on, the display is nearly impossible to see. The numbers are not illuminated, only the needles. It is only until after you turn the lights on that you can see the numbers. Is there anyway to have the numbers illuminated without the headlights on???

Lexus GS 2013+ :: DRL Always On Full Brightness - Bypass Unit

I've recently came across a site that sells a bypass unit that would allow me to bypass the DRL brightness adjustment settings to "Full" brightness even when the headlights are on. Instead of the "dim" mode when the headlights are on.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Nav Screen Has To Warm Up To Full Brightness

On my 2007 GS350 I have an annoying (or) normal problem where the Nav screen has to warm up a little, like an old tube radio, to full brightness when I start up the car on a colder morning. It takes about 15 to 20 seconds. My Lexus dealer first said it was normal but eventually gave up and replaced it. It still seems to be about the same.

Camry 2012+ :: Dash Lights Go From Bright To Dim Depending On Brightness Outside

I noticed the dash lights go from bright to dim depending on the brightness outside. If i go under an overpass even at freeway speeds it will dim down and then come back up during the day. Even if I have my head lights on during the day it does that. Is there anyway to stop this?

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: 2012 - How To Adjust Radio Display Brightness

On our 2012 Sonata all stock, the radio display screen is far dimmer than the rest of the lighting. When putting the lighting at a safe level for night time driving (ie not blinding), the display screen is far too dim. In order to see it, the dash lights need to be almost all up.

Any way to adjust? BTW, the radio knobs and preset lights are fine. It is only the diplay screen. This is NOT an issue on our 2012 Tucson. That one works perfectly. I flipped through all the obvious controls and found nothing

IS F (2008-2014) :: Navigation Screen Brightness Not Responding To Headlights Going On Or Off

I was heading to the gym tonight and noticed that when I had my headlights on the nav screen stays white and does not go into the dark mode it is supposed to with the headlight on. I pressed the display button and there was no indication that there was an option to go back and fourth between day and night mode as usual . Only the option to adjust brightness and contrast. I do have the option to turn off the screen but this is annoying.

Ford :: 2000 - Lack Of Power

This is a van (2000)used to transport people for leisure. It has 270k. When she is warmed up and rolling the power output is impressive for the vehicle size and weight. A half punch on the gas will push your shoulder blades into your seat.(I've never floored it)

It has a fairly consistent "lack of power issue". When she is just starting out for the first run. And about 3/4s of the time after she has been sitting at idle for an extended period(already warm). The lack of power is severe. If a hill of note is involved I have to turn around and go the other way. The lack of power normally is dealt with by pulling over and shutting the motor down. Usually, 2 mins or longer is the best. If I am in a hurry and don't go full 2 mins I get improved power but not really full. She will clear herself up then as we go."Refinding" her power always comes with a BIG load of smoke output. She does smoke pretty good when cold, of course. But normal driving not very bad. Smoke is of the whitish to light gray in color.

This has been a problem for the 3 years I have owned the car. She is cold blooded. When I plan to drive the car I plug in the block heater otherwise, I think I am using 2 gallons just to get her warmed up to idle. I just started using the diesel Kleen fuel additive. Got it at Napa. Haven't seen much improvement or change of note at this point.

Other than this problem and the wheel almost falling off once...it's been a perfect rig.The mechanic has not been able to come up with much. Although at the last oil change the computer code mentioned something about a temperature sensor? I have not yet followed up with him about that.

Grand AM :: 2003 GT Seems To Hesitate Under 3,000 Rpm - Lack Of Power

I have a 2003 Grand AM GT 3.4 with 166,000 miles, its hard to explain but will try. When your first taken off the car seems like its holding back, but then once you hit 3,000 rpm's with the gas pedal still pressed the same amount the car takes right off like it has a power band. Same thing regardless happens all the time under 3,000rpm.

Going down the highway at 70 and you start to go up a slight incline, you give it a little gas and you can feel the car having lack of power, then you press a bit more on the gas and it kicks down a gear and goes. Then back in the same situation once back under 3,000 rpm.

The car idles normal, check engine light will come on once in a while, but goes back off before i have a chance to see what code it is. I do notice when the check engine light comes on, you can feel the car lack power for just a second. I just replaced the o2 sensor today thinking it was that.
