Touareg :: Loud Beep And Brake Light Failure Warning?
I got a loud beep and MFI warning "Brake Light Failure" indicating my bulb was out in the right rear brake light. A friend was behind me, I called his cell phone and he said, yup, its out. Then after a few mins of driving, the warning went off and the brake light was again functioning. This has then happened to me twice more over the course of about a week. The brake light still works, but I get a failure and warning sporadically.

I had the light and sound show pop up on the display of my 00 2.8 wagon this week. The ABS light, the brake light and occasionally the TC light combined with a big STOP in the display and Brake Failure.
I took it to my local and he did a quick scan and the ABS computer isn't communicating, indicating it's fried.

I have a 2004 Treg with 28k miles. This car has the air suspension and the dashboard with the LCD display.
When the foot pedal break is released, the break light remains on and the center display sounds off the alarm that the foot break is on as the car begins to roll.
After half dozen additional pulls of the break release handle, the issue goes away. This is now happening almost every time the foot break is used.

I have a 99 f450 4X4 I'm having brake problems. Without warning when I go to stop my peddle will go right to the floor and I can't stop, at other times I go to stop and the peddle is stiff and I have to put all I have in to it to stop. The abs light comes on and off occasionally at random but as the brake failure has become more and more frequent so has the abs light. Also my steering does seem a bit off, a little tough N jerky and the power steering pump is whining.

Touareg :: 2004 - Brake Light Is On
So, my buddy has an '04 Touareg. He went to the local dealer (who are well known for ripping people off) since he had the brake sensor light on. They told him he would have to replace his brake pads AND the rotors as well, for the 4 wheels, coming up to almost $2K. His car only has 36k miles, and I told him I thought they weren't being honest. Why would rotors go bad so early? He drives like a little girl, with no strong braking at all, in dry conditions... He hasn't seen any signs of vibration or lethargy regarding braking, the only indicator being the sensor light. I am trying to convince him on getting a second opinion before he gets mugged by the dealer.

I know that brake light usage varies by driver. However, this driver has never had to replace a brake light on any car I've owned within the first three years. I know this because several have been leased and I never had to replace any bulb.
My Treg brake light went out last week and I had to replace it. Is a shorter brake light life par for the course here? Any fancy reason? How many brake lights have you replaced?
Touareg :: Right Brake Light Goes Out Intermittently?
Quick question for the techies of the group: my right brake light goes out intermittently. I get the warning in the MFI whenever it goes out. Lasts for about 10 mins and then works fine again for about 2 weeks, then another failure for 10 mins, then good for 2 weeks, etc. The dealer says the bulb is good and he can't find any other problem. Someone suggested there may be a short or it could be the wiring. But can I do if its never "out" when I bring it to the dealer and he says "what am I supposed to fix?"

The check brake light came on this morning on my way to work. I only have 17K on the Touareg. I did search on brake problems on vortex, Its still to early to change the brakes.
Can get them replaced under warranty or I have to pay for them out of my pocket. This sucks the Touareg is about a year old and I have to replace my brakes so soon. I have 22's on but I dont think that has anything to do with have to change the brake pads/rotors early.

View 1 RepliesTouareg :: No Light Illuminate After Connecting Trailer Brake
I just installed a Tekonsha Envoy trailer brake. I bought the VW wiring pieces and connected it to the factory under-dash plug. The problem is that when this is connected and the trailer is hooked up the green light should illuminate on the Envoy controller. When I have the trailer hooked up, there are no lights lit and the trailer brake unit just seems dead. This is a brand new Envoy.
View 2 RepliesTouareg :: 2005 VW - Yellow Brake Warning Light Is On
My yellow (circle with line on each side) warning light for brakes is on in my 2005 VW Touareg. Only 9 months ago I replaced the front pads, rotors and sensors. When I put the car in drive and start to move the warning light flashes 'check front brake pads'. Is it possible it's something simple like a sensor? Is there a way for me to check that? Side note: I replaced the rear brake pads and rotors only 5,000 miles before that. I just want to see if it could be something simple before I take it in to be checked out and told it's something more sinister. I checked the level of brake fluid and it is full.

I took of the brake light above the rear glass hatch, it does not come on when braking, it is a LED light, tested with a 9v battery and worked ok but not working while installed, fuses are ok. Should I just buy a new one and replace it?
