Touareg :: Won't Start - All Electric Shutdown?
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.
Tiguan :: How To Retrofit OEM Towing Hitch
I'm trying to retrofit the OEM Trailer hitch. I'm stuck at the control box wiring. I tried finding the info I need, however I couldn't find it and the people who I've asked elsewhere haven't responded to me. I need the Part Numbers of the 5NO-055-204-NA trailer hitch Electrical Installation Kit's pieces. Don't worry, if your Tiguan has an OEM trailer hitch, the wiring should be there. And by there, I mean under the steering wheel column, by the pedals.

I had a hitch installed about a year ago by U-Haul. Probably my first mistake. Although "custom" ordered it rattles against the muffler. They have been unable or unwilling to fix it. It appears that the muffler needs to be a bit lower. How to get rid of the noise.
View 1 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: P2185 Code And ECU Hitch - Ongoing
My MK6 GTI is currently in for service & inspection - however, after downgrading my tune to Stage I+ to pass emissions & for readiness to be set (Unitronic), my shop (CBTuning) noticed a code in the system - P2185. G83 Sensor Outlet Flange - Engine Coolant Temp Sensor 2 Circuit.
- Low coolant level
- Faulty Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor
- Stuck or leaking thermostat
- Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor harness is open or shorted
- Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor circuit poor electrical connection
Now, once noticed, the CBTuning advised me to have the car taken to my dealer for a warranty job/repair (Fred Beans VW). My technician went ahead and replaced the corresponding sensor, the harness for the sensor, and rewired everything up - surely enough, the code is still hanging there in the system.
With the tune having been done via a bench flash, I experienced and issue with my original ECU (OEM that was installed with purchase) and Unitronic came through in the clutch and replaced it with another ECU. What my technician noticed is that 'OLD' is written on the replacement ECU which raises concern and curiosity. My technician even setup a new overlay to test the new sensor directly to the ECU and the corresponding pin but alas, the code still refuses to go away.
My car will not pass inspection since readiness will not run with a static fault in the ECM.
Ford Excursion :: Hitch Is Rusting / Removal?
My hitch is rusting so bad that I can pull it off in pieces. Surprisingly it seems to be the only major rust on my EX. I crawled under it the other day to check out how it is removed and I only saw half of 4 bolts. Those bolts look like they are under the fuel tank and I can't get my socket onto them.
My question is, do I need to drop the fuel tank to remove the hitch, and also is there anything else I should do while the fuel tank is down.(Besides replacing the hitch with a new one.)
Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Adding Hitch And Nav To Base Model?
I am interested in a 2004 and wanted to know if I add the curt hitch .. Or maybe oem one Has the curves cover and not notched or flat does that mean it should be made after 5/2004 and could use the hitch that is tubular? Not sure if the curt version matter for any of these
Also I heard they may be prewired for towing, how to look for besides the trans cooler, if they don't have this then it seems too much work.. and I should stay away?
Also doesn't have nav, so I wanted to know if it is harder to add aftermarket screen to non nav than one with factory nav?
It seems like this is a base trim do you know in 2004 what feature might be missing from this base model That I am "missing out" on?
Found a pic of the actual car under bumper built 9/04 Does it look normal. I think I see the towing wiring box there.. was the hitch port installed option? But it looks like it's ready for one.

View 8 RepliesHonda - Odyssey - Transmissions :: 2003 - Hitch When Shifting From Second To Third
It's an '03 Odyssey with 116K miles that has developed a hitch when shifting from second to third. It feels like an uncoordinated manual shift when the clutch is put in before the accelerator is lifted. Car revs 500 rpm before completing the shift. This only happens under load, such as when accelerating hard from a stop or moderate acceleration going up a hill. Not willing yet to let the dealer tell me I just need a new transmission and so few places deal with automatic repairs.

View 10 RepliesFord Excursion :: Without Dropping Tank Remove Hitch?
My hitch receiver is looking pretty strange lately and I want to take it down, grind it and repaint it. While crawling underneath the truck today, I noticed that it appears the bolts holding the hitch are kind of covered by the Tank Skid Plate.
I did some searching, and from what I've gathered, it appears that To drop the skid plate means to also drop the tank as they are one unit.
Is this true? Is there any way for me to get the hitch receiver out without messing around with the gas tank?
Ford Ranger / B-Series :: Ball Hitch Won't Remove?
I know this sounds pathetic but i cannot get the ball hitch off of my truck. That thing is on there and i cant get it loose because the ball keeps turning when i try to break the nut loose.

View 4 RepliesTouareg :: Tapping Noise Behind Dash
I've noticed a strange tapping noise behind the dash, it is irregular and literally sounds like someone is tapping on something. The noise is dull, somewhat plastic sounding, and short. I've only noticed it when I am driving around with the windows up and the air off, but it could be happening all the time but I just can't hear it. And again to reiterate, it comes and goes and the pattern is very irregular.

View 8 RepliesPrius (Gen 3) :: Easier Way To Remove Tow Hitch Without Exhaust Suspension Bracket?
I bought a tow hitch to put a carrier on the back of the vehicle for long trips where we might have 1 or 2 too many suitcases to fit inside.. I don't want the hitch on the vehicle for everyday driving which will be 99% of the time. It seem to me that if I could get the right size threaded studs I could just lift the hitch into place, tread on 4 bolts, and be done without having to take off the exhaust suspension bracket.
