My lens on my city light popped off. It seems like I might be able to reach it and get it from the city light socket, but it'd be impossible to turn it around and stick it back. The next option would be to cut the headlights open. I'm about to just give up and let it sit there.
View 2 RepliesI just got a new switch from the dealer, only rear fog control (don't have OEM LED's yet), and I want to turn to the right one position, but the HID's come on, and no city lights. What am I missing?
I have a VCDS... [URL] .....
My head light lens the plastic is starting to get a yellowish colors to them it is not clear anymore.
View 8 RepliesI have a 2002 that I recently "bumped" into a wall, requiring replacement of the drivers side headlight assembly (along with a little body work). The body shop said they would buff the passenger side lens to make it look just like the new one, but when I picked up the car the headlights looked like day and night. The foreman told me that they buffed the lens as best as they could, but the discoloration was on the inside and that there was no way to take the lens off the assembly. Is this true, or just trying to sell me another headlight assembly?
View 3 RepliesHow do you remove the city or parking light bulb in the 2011 GTI, without the HID projector headlights? I have the regular halogen set-up...I want to change them to a super white bulb to match my Xenesis bulbs.
I know its the 194 bulb, I just can't seem to pull it free...
This is the first winter with my LED tails installed, and notice that I get varying amounts of moisture on the inside of each corner light lens. It makes me a bit worried that this will eventually cause a short or destroy a light in my not-so-cheap tails.
It comes and goes based on relative humidity, temp, and precipitation - but isn't necessarily worse when raining. It's almost like the larger the delta between a higher cabin temp and colder outside temp on a "humid" day generates the most moisture.
I have checked the "bulb access" on each corner and the weatherstripping is intact and appears to make solid contact when tightened down.
So in the last 4 months, the GTi has lost about 1/4 of a quart of oil or less 3 times and the low oil light has popped up. Idk if I'm running her too hard too much but I can't find a leak. I'm taking off all mods and going to the dealership tomorrow but I have no faith in them, to be honest. I'm positive they are just gonna say they couldn't find an issue.
View 9 RepliesJust popped on at exactly 97,600k, What could be some of the potential snafu's? Or is it just more preventative as it needs proper service. Will be taking it to Dealer, but just curious as to what it could be.
View 10 RepliesChrome trim on passenger side near headlight popped out some of it broken (only the pieces on the inside) any way I could salvage this trim without having to buy a new 1?...
View 4 RepliesSomehow, I managed to pop out the light module in the driver's side footwell. It still works, but was dangling loose by the cord. I stuffed it temporarilly behind the side trim panel, just to get it out of the way of the clutch.
It doesn't look damaged, but I can't see where/how this attaches to the structure in the footwell. I tried looking how the passenger side module is attached, but it's set into/covered by a trip panel the driver's side doesn't have.
2014 LS460L "Check headlight system" error popped up. Since the RV mirror failed as well apparently the system is not getting the light sensor signal from the mirror and brings up the HL error. Where is the RV mirror fuse? I took off the fuse cover to the left under the steering column but can't find it. It's not practical to unplug and check all 26 fuses, owner manual is useless...
View 6 RepliesI cannot stand the way they look, I tried just taking the bulbs out but it throws the warning light. Just curious to see any luck with turning them off in vagcom.
View 3 RepliesMk4 2.0 GLS 2002. I'm guessing the title clearly introduces the problem, I think I should be getting around the 21MPG mark in city with my Golf. I have changed alot of things to try and improve the mileage but it's not getting any better.
I've changed the Air Mass Sensor, both oxygen sensors, the catalyze, spark plugs, done some work to the gear, fixed leakage in the automatic clutch, and I have done some deep cleaning to the engine.
So I was in the driveway looking in every nook and cranny in the new car.
How do you get the lens off the dome light in the front to switch the bulb to LED?
The lens is part of the switch for the map light.
I had oem LED taillights installed to my car. Dealer coded the car to avoid error lights on dash. The problem is now the city lights under xenons look dimmed. Not as bright as before. I asked him why did it happen and he said that it's normal as it needs to balance the current flow to supply enough power to the LED taillights. I'm not satisfied with this answer though.
View 3 RepliesI have a set of retros with dual turns. I was wondering how to go about wiring up the turns as my city lights (i have a euro switch). Is there a diagram of the wiring anywhere?
View 3 RepliesAs far as I can tell, Expeditions, Excursions and Navigators all had this same part in them but for whatever reason it seems like it's next to impossible to find on its own - I don't want to buy a whole overhead console for one part.
Here is what I'm talking about:
I want to replace the lens and buttons, not just the missing button (which is somewhere inside my truck)
Is it Part #5 on this? [URL] ....
I can't find an individual part # - Is it because the overhead console was sold as a whole?
Need to replace side views with wide angle lenses? How easy is it to replace them? I don't want to break anything, but it looks as if they just snap in and out, is that so?
View 15 RepliesI'm at 9600 miles now and i noticed my gas mileage started going up---the last two fill ups with the same daily route:
23.9 mpg! in mixed highway and city driving! average speed 25-35mph for a typical trip!
Now, granted I've been driving gently...but that brought me to another exiting tid bit:
If I don't want to drive spiritedly (because I'm on the phone--hands free of course---or because I'm thinking about work)....this car is so smooth and comfortable....
I had a dodge charger before and that boat wasn't as comfortable nor as agile---by a ton! And then today....it's raining in fort worth....but that's no problem...no spinning tires at lights....amazingly better traction with AWD compared with my 1.8t!
So I just picked up an R32 and it has a euro switch and euro projector headlights but I've noticed that my parking lights, city lights, and front fogs are all inoperative. Though the turn signals do work. I tried doing a quick search but wasn't really able to come up with anything as to a reason why.
View 7 RepliesWhat's the best way to find the information on changing a broken lens on a daytime running light led on a 2013 Prius 2? Can't find anything on YouTube. Would the owners manual have anything like that? The led still works but I'm afraid moisture will cause it to malfunction. Will I have to buy the whole led assembly?
