Golf/GTI VI :: Driver Side Footwell Light Popped Loose
Jul 13, 2010
Somehow, 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.

I had been having an issue with leaking door seals in my GTI (2012, 2 door, 18k). I had noticed the front and rear carpet was damp and my front monster mats were wet after it would rain. I had the dealership replace the door seals and it has eliminated the issue in the front footwells.
However, the rear drivers side footwell is still wet. Since my car is a two door and it is not wet around the back of the drivers side door i am perplexed as to were the water is coming from.
I read that sometimes the AC drain hose can leak into the car if disconnected but i am not sure where our hose is. I also have heard that it could be a drain plug missing on the underside of the car letting water in.

Last month I picked up my MKVII AutoBahn with Lighting Package. It was kind of an emergency buy, but a long time coming.
I haven't had much time to check every nook and cranny, but I did make do the important checks (Shipping Pucks, I'm looking at you).
Either way, since I received the car the Footwell Lighting on the driver side has never lit up, I assumed that it was the same case on the passenger side, and that the option was just off.
When my wife was getting out of the car 2 days ago I noticed that it was in fact lighting on the passenger side, but not the driver side.
So, after speaking with the service department at the dealership, it seems almost impossible to get the car there for scheduling reasons.
Is there anything I can do on my own to troubleshoot? I'm not very handy, but always willing to try.

Got a mk4 golf tdi 51 plate i have noticed water in drivers foot well.
Dried out the carpet and underlay siliconed the bonnet release cable gromet and the electrical box next to it. the drains on both sides under the scuttle panel are clear. 1 week later the water is back again i noticed when i washed the car that there was foam on the top of the scuff panel on the in side of the car and on the seat adjuster.
Is my door seal gone? There is no water anywhere else in the car just at the drivers side foot well. at the wear pad area under the pedals. 3 door no sun roof.....

So I just had my transmission replaced because my cv axle popped loose and tore a hole right into my old one spilling all the tranny oil all over the road. I was able to find another used one and then bolt it up and now I have a small issue. Its been leaking a little bit of tranny oil through the one piece on the bottom that has two bolts on it and a VW logo on it.

I'm getting water in the driver's side footwell on my new (to me) 09 SE. I have the VW Cerified used Warranty so it's off to the dealer tomorrow. I had a similar problem with water in the rear cargo area, which was traced to the sunroof drain(s) being disconnected. Is water in the front also an indication of sunroof problems or is it likely coming in the door?

I was driving down the street when another car side swiped mine. There wasn't any noticeable damage, but the side mirror on my driver side popped out.
It doesn't look like anything is actually broken. The mirror just popped out. Can I pop it back in or will I need to get it looked at?
The reason I ask is I didn't notice any other parts of the mirror on the street, but can't seem to get it to pop back in.

My car will not start intermittently and I've narrowed it down to these sensors and want to replace them ASAP. How to replace it and it was about a 10 minute job.

When I was leaving for work, I noticed that the driver side of my front spoiler popped out (where it meets the wheel well). I tried to push it in but it wouldn't stay. I saw that there are 2 slits that look like a point for something from the spoiler to clip onto the bumper but I see nothing on the spoiler that will clip to them. I have a 2007 SE.

A spring popped out of the door pocket in the driver side door when someone tried to clean it pulling it out (which they shouldn't have done). I have the two springs but I need a diagram on how to open the door to get inside the panel to put it back. How the door comes apart ? I can try to guess but you know there is always a trick.

So I've noticed lately that atleast one of the passenger side footwell ducts is blowing cold air when the car is warmed up and everything else is blowing warm air. It seems to be the ducts closest to the driver side, although I'm not 100% sure. 2010 GTI MK6 ....

Soooooo I woke up this morning to a passenger footwell filled with a couple inches of water after it pissed rain last night (and continues to). It looks like it's dripping in right to the left of the doorjamb next to the passenger door speaker, under the kick panel. Is this common??

I have searched and everyone just states to press in the tabs and the cover pops off. Well this is not the case for me, the lids won't budge and the tabs seem to be recessed as is. This can't be as hard as i'm making it.

For some reason my drivers side floor mat/carpet keeps kicking itself loose of the two hooks there to keep it in line. Then it moves quickly forward to stuff itself under the pedals.
The dealer indicated he had not seen this problem and didn't really have a suggestion.

I have a 2006 Toyota Corolla. There are two plastic covers on the undercarriage of the vehicle in the front.. The front driver's side is loose; the oil change told me the little clips are broken and they used a "strap" to hook it back up. Well, on the Fla turnpike, the strap lasted about 30 minutes

My driver side does not fold in anymore. I can hear the motor but it doesn't fold.

Have had the puppy about a month. Getting about 31+ on the Hwy. Anyhoo for the real story, we got home today and noticed that there was a seal around the the sunroof, well on the driver side that was loose. Sort of a flex/accordion type. The other side didn't have one. Not sure, but it looks like it folds over to the outside under the slide track, but not sure. The other side is gone.

So I recently bought an '09 Elantra for 52K miles. Car's a beauty except the front bumper cover is loose under the headlight on the driver side(got it that way). The first two pics are from the driver side whereas the third shows it in comparison to the passenger (which is totally fine). The gap seems to be getting bigger ever so slightly. What would be the cheapest and easiest fix?

When driving slow, and hit little bumps it sounds like its a loose exhaust, or something metal is loose. The sound is coming from the drivers side. What it might be, or had the same problem? Really don't want to take it all the way to the dealer.

The little folding drawer/shelf inside my console popped loose and when I took the car in for scheduled maintenance, I asked the service dept to put it back together. They advised me that after trying to fix it for a while, it could not be repaired.

My 03 Camry LE has a weird clunk/rattle in the rear driver side only. This happens when i go over bad portion of road, not like potholes just uneven bad road. When the suspension moves quickly. Car has no weight in back. It sounds like something metal is loose in that side, the other side is tight and makes no noise. The struts were replaced in january by previous owner, someone told me it was the rear links which i replaced and still same issue, checked sway bar bushings and those are good.
