Touareg :: Key Battery Is Empty Alarm

On my display, I get a "Key Battery is Empty" alarm with a little key symbol that stays there as long as I am driving. I have replaced the battery...still the alarm. I have tried the other FOB...still the alarm. The thing is, the FOB works (I have the keyless start) so it seems to be a software issue but how do I reset it without venturing down to the dealer?

Touareg :: 2006 - Getting Key Battery Dead Warning Even Though It's Not

Every second or third time I turn over the engine, I get a warning telling me my key battery i dead. It's a 2006, so I can see how it might be. But the thing is, it still works from far away and the automatic unlock when I touch the handles never fails either.

Is it common to get a warning when there's still juice left in the battery or is this an error?

Prius (2004-09) :: Car Won't Start - HV Battery Empty On MFD

I had my dead 12V replaced two weeks ago with a new OEM batt. The car had been working fine until I parked it in the garage four days ago. There was a single bar of HV charge left at that time, at least according to the MFD. Today it's stone dead, not even a single beep or a blinking light. I've attached a working 12V battery to the jumpstart points under the bonnet and the dash came alive, but the car would not start. The HV battery gauge on the MFD had no bars, and the shifter indicators were all flashing.

Is my HV really dead? Would it really take only four days to discharge completely and take the new 12V with it? Perhaps the OEM 12V was faulty and another 12V battery (not a booster) is not enough to jumpstart the car?

Touareg :: Gauge Shows Near Empty, Prior Fill Up

So I fill up today, 20plus gallons, the gauge shows near empty prior fill-up and after it is very very slow to show full. First I was confused and to make certain I filled again but the tank is full.. So, I guess a) the gauge is just slow to react or b) the sending unit called it quits or c)

Phaeton :: Key Battery Empty Notice Arrives Regularly

We get a flat tyre notice at least once a week. ( Checked the pressure with the gauges from two of our other cars.) NO FLAT. Pressure as when previously checked.NOT FROM COLD WEATHER. Our temperature here in South Florida stays fairly constant.

The "Key Battery Empty" notice arrives regularly, and we change the battery [2032] just as a precaution and the message again appears.

The 2004 W12 is still under 'warranty'.

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: After Replacement Of Battery Distance To Empty Won't Working Properly

I replaced the battery in my 2011 Sonata. After the install I reset the radio, clock etc. and everything seemed to work fine electronically. The car was very low on gas and when I filled it later that same day the "Distance to Empty" display in the dash only read 271 miles after fill up. Typically when it is filled it reads 550+ to empty. After three tank fulls the display now reads 375 when filled up. Is there a reboot for this function? Does it have to be done by a dealer?

Ford - Gasoline - Batteries - F150 :: Battery Drain In Short Amounts Of Time / Gas Overflow Even When Tank Empty

I have an 1979 F150, 351 V8, only 104,000 miles. Been driving it sporadically, had it serviced over the years, been driving it until recently. At least three new batteries have drained to dead in short amounts of time. No one seems to be able to pinpoint the trouble. It has two gas tanks--the original tank overflows out the filler cap in hot weather, even when mostly empty. I must find this trouble. Again--it's been seen by several repair shops, but no one has fixed the problem.

Touareg :: Low Coolant Warning Came On

I was towing an enclosed trailer (4000lbs) this past weekend on the interstate and the low coolant warning came on. I pulled in at the next exit at a truck stop to look for distilled water and they did not have any. I decided to buy an off brand long life premixed coolant, pink in color and topped off the overflow tank with about 1/2 gallon of coolant. After reading about not mixing coolants with the G12 that comes in the Touareg, will I have to drain the entire cooling system and refill with G12? or is this not enough to worry about? Should I get the dealer to do this for free since they just serviced my truck prior to my trip and I told them I was going to be towing and to make sure everything is okay?

Touareg :: TP Warning For The Right Rear?

Had a strange thing happen this weekend. Hadn't driven the truck for a day, and when I started it up, I got a TP warning for the right rear. I broke out my trusty tire pressure gauge, and they were all perfectly equal at 45 psi. I restarted the car a couple of times, but I kept getting the warning. Then, I had the system re-learn the pressures and I was fine. How to resolve this problem. Hope this doesn't start to happen too often.

Touareg :: Low Pressure Warning For All 4 Tires

Started my treg this morning and got the tire pressure warning. Cchecked in convenience setup to see which one had low pressure, and it indicated all four tires were low. Filled tires up and checked pressure again (manually using digital gauge) and they were correct. Started up treg and still got tire pressure warning for all four tires.

Touareg :: Unidentified Warning Symbol Came On

I have about 1K miles on new steel springs V8 Touareg. In my dash, I have a yellow symbol that looks like a "slippery when wet" street warning sign....(minimally outlined body of T'reg with 2 squiggly lines under it), exactly in the spot for the ESP warning light (this is NOT a triangle with an open at the bottom circle around it). The symbol stays lit. I get nothing when I press my ESP button, other than it says ESP OFF. It suddenly came on this morning.

I looked through the whole manual. Nothing actually shows the console area that matches mine. The only console pictures are of the air=springs equipped models.

Nothing in the manual explains this exact symbol either.

Touareg :: Overheating Warning In The Display

My A/C dropped out, which alerted me to the temp gauge which was high, then to the "overheating" warning in the display.

I parked it to allow it to cool, then drove on with the heat cranked to shed some heat, only to have to park it again. After only a 3.5 hr wait (what a joke), VW's roadside sub-contractor showed up with a flat-bed to bring it to Rod East VW in San Antonio.

I am still waiting for their diagnosis. I did take some time this weekend to test drive a truck and look at some other vehicles, but nothing in this price range is appealing to me.

Despite the grief I go through with this thing, it's still the best value. I've got 52k miles on my loaded '04 V8.

Touareg :: Check Gas Cap Warning While Driving

Touareg :: Disabling NAV System Warning?

I am considering a few different Touaregs with different options. Two near the top of my list happen to have the nav system. One thing I noticed when I test drove a car with the nav is that every time I powered the car on, I had to dismiss a warning on the nav screen. This looks to be really annoying, especially since the UI for the radio is on the same screen.
