Touareg :: 2008 - Front Right Parking Light Replacement
How to replace the FRONT RIGHT PARKING LIGHT. That is how it says in the instrument panel cluster...
View 1 RepliesTouareg :: Parking Light Switched On / Loud Warning Sound?
In the last week our Egg has begun to randomly decide to turn on a "parking light" on the passenger side of the vehicle when the car is turned off. This doesn't happen every time. But when it does, the amber light in the front and one in the cluster in the rear (both on the passenger side) turn on while the car is off. Also in the display in the instrument cluster you get "PARKING LIGHT SWITCHED ON" and a very loud warning sound.
I wasn't aware that our Egg's had a "parking light" feature and how to turn it on or off. More importantly I don't understand why this is coming on when it does. When it comes on, I can restart the car, turn it off and most times it turns off.
Tiguan :: Xenon Headlight Failure / Warning Light Showed Up For A Bad Headlamp
So, last night, a warning light showed up that pointed to a bad headlamp. I have a 2012 SEL with Xenon lights. When I first start the car, they both work. But then after a minute or so the passenger side lamp goes out and the warning light comes on. Each time I first start the car, same thing. Both work, then passenger side goes out. I had Xenon lamps on my 2000 A4 for over 12 years with not a single problem. Though those were not the bi-xenon with the Adaptive auto following lamps.
View 7 RepliesTouareg :: When Parking Brake Released In MFI Got Warning Parking Brake Fail To Release
Had my car parked outside of work for about 12 hours yesterday, and in the NYC cold front, the parking break must have stuck on slightly. When I started to move, despite the fact I'd released the parking break, I received a warning in the MFI that said PARKING BREAK FAILURE TO RELEASE. I pulled the handle again and heard it pop just a little more off. Everything worked great after that. If I hadn't received the alert I probably would have driven off with it on. I'd probably have noticed the hesitation and checked the break again, but the alert was useful. Some of the warnings in the MFI can appear to be a pain at times, but it's amazing how thorough a job VW has done monitoring the cars systems and giving real time information if something doesn't work. You just have to make sure you don't get info overload from it all!!

My parking assist does not work any more. red lights and and one tone front and rear when the car starts, after that I just get red lights going forward and red lights going in reverse. Any way to reset the whole system? I pulled the fuse but that didn't work.

You can turn parking lights on on left or right side via the turn signal feature. I can't see a way to turn all parking lights on. What am I missing?
View 4 RepliesTouareg :: Differential Is Not Locked / Parking Brake Won't On
I have an '08 T2 and this issue may be unique to this new version of the Touareg. Here's the deal...
Let's say I am driving at 30 MPH on city streets. When I apply the brake, I "feel" what I would describe as periodic engine braking occurring simultaneously. I also experience this periodically in all sorts of driving situations when I am not accelerating. In other words, the truck doesn't always just coast freely. This "feeling" doesn't really slow the truck, it's just a feeling like some sort of resistance is taking place. I have also described it as a hum but it's only slightly audible.
I am in DRIVE with the A/C running . I have 800 miles now but it's been happening since I picked up the truck. Oh - no, the parking brake is not on and the differential is not locked.
When I took my truck in to have the CD changer installed, I tried to describe this to the tech. They ultimately said it is probably one or more of the various pumps. It was also suggested that it may be the A/C compressor but I haven't been able to determine that it truly the case.
I am becoming so frustrated with this that I am considering going to another VW dealer in a friend's car to test drive another T2 and see what it does. I need to figure out if this is just something a T2 does or mine is screwed up.
Again, there have been so many changes in the 2008 model so it may be unique to this new design. Unfortunately, they just came out so I don't know how many owners are out there yet.
Touareg :: Parking Lights Stay On Despite The Switch Is Off
My 2004 Treg is thoroughly enjoyable, having had it for almost 2 weeks at this point. I notice every now & then, that the parking lights stay on after I turn the car off, despite the switch being in the "off" position...

Our V6 Touareg stalled while reversing out of a parking space last night. We have about 21,000 miles on it, and never had this problem before. I was able to fire up the engine again without any problem... by the way, can you tell if the battery is good or not from the battery meter in the instrument cluster?
View 10 RepliesTouareg :: Squealing Tires Only In Parking Garages
Is this binding or just normal behavior--whenever I'm in a parking garage making relatively tight turns I hear my tires squealing. Never on regular pavement. Seems like the surface of garages is different than asphalt or blacktop.
View 4 RepliesTouareg :: Parking Lights Stay On If Directional Left On
I had this happen to me the other day and as it is outside of the usual for most cars, I thought I would mention it as it could lead to dead batteries if one doesnt pay attention to it.
If you turn off the Touareg with the directional blinker engaged, the parking lights on the side that the blinker was indicating will stay on after the car is turned off. The MFI iwill display PArking Lights ON.
When it first happened to me I started playing with the headlight switch to turn off the parking lights to no avail. I then cam to realize that it was the blinker that needed to be centered to turn them off.
Touareg :: DRLs Do Not Turn Off When Parking Brake Is Engaged
I have bi-xenon lamps and DRLs. The manual states that the DRLs are supposed to turn off when the transmission is in Park and the parking brake is engaged. My DRLs do NOT turn off.
So, my question is: Do your DRLs turn off when the car's in Park and the parking brake is engaged?
Touareg :: Battery Indicator Jumps If Parking And Front Lights Run Together
I'm running a euro switch on my 05 V8 and I just noticed some weird battery fluctuations for specific light configurations.
In particular, if I run the parking lights (without the headlights)and the front fog lights together, the battery indicator jumps around between 13 and 14 on the console readout. For any other position on the euro switch, the battery charge indicator stays locked onto 14 (where I would expect it to be). I can reproduce the issue easily and haven't found another direct cause. There haven't been any other battery symptoms that I've noticed, so this one seems a bit peculiar.
Touareg :: 2016 V6 - Electric Parking Brake Engaging Automatically?
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 :: How To Check If Parking Assist Sensors Stopped Working
I wonder, how will we know if/when the parking assist sensors stop working? Will the display be missing some of the yellow lights or will we have to find out the hard way?
View 2 RepliesTouareg :: Compass Malfunctioning - After Parking And Locking Display Keeps Flashing
While driving I noticed that the compass is not working or its gone into some mode or something. It shows PM 0:15. Pressing any of the 3 buttons doesn't do anything except holding down the 2 small buttons at the same time brings the name/version of the compass software and releasing seems to reboot or refresh the display. But after that it comes back to PM 0:15. I should also say that after parking and locking the car the display keeps flashing the PM 0:15. 15 minutes later I checked same thing it is still flashing. Whats happening to my compass?
View 7 RepliesTouareg :: Rear Parking Distance Meter No Longer Worked
Just had the dealer install the VW trialer hitch on my TReg. When I got the truck back I noticed the rear parking distance meter no longer worked. The front works fine, but when I put the car in reverse the display meter ligts up the red segments and a warning is sounded for 2 - 3 seconds. The technician said he didn't know what the problem is but would be researching.
