Golf IV R32 :: Passenger Side HID Was Out
Aug 11, 2010
The other day I noticed my passenger side hid was out, so I ordered up a set of bulbs and they arrived a couple days ago. I just finished installing the new bulbs, turned on the lights, and the bulb is still not coming on. I bought these oem hids from 1of1500 right around last Christmas and aside from the pin adaptors being a little ratty, they were in essentially new condition (how sparingly his TR .:R was used and the condition he keeps things in). When we installed the lights they worked, and since have worked without issue. The high beam still works. Is there any chance the 10-12 pin adaptor is to blame here? It is pretty beat up. I can't imagine the ignitor is bad since I've only put 3000 or so miles on the car sine installing the lights.

My passanger side blade has been hitting the side of my windshield randomly since the car was new. Wasn't able to replicate the issue at the dealer so I was pulling the blade off last night to investigate and broke the small square retaining clip (Red arrow). Do the clip assembly (Blue arrow) can be purchased separately or if I have to buy a whole new wiper.

My Drivers side headlight points slightly higher than my passenger side headlight. Is this normal or do I need to adjust, and if so how do I adjust?

Ok so here's the deal.. A few weeks back I started to notice my passenger side window started to roll slower than the driver side, not by much but its pretty obvious enough every time you either roll the window down or up.. I made an appointment with a VW service center to have them look at it but they said they can't do anything about it .. Is this true ..? The service guy told me that their would be no way to make the motor of the window go any faster or slower.. However I'm back here again due to some clunking/ticking noise every time I roll my pax side window which develop during their first assessment.. So they ordered me a new window regulator which is getting put in now.. The main and initial problem as to why I made an appointment in the first place was for VW service center to fix my pax side window rolling a bit slowly. Now since they are replacing the regulator of my pax side window I asked the service guy whether this would fix the problem of the window rolling slower compare to the driver side and he bluntly said no.. "we cannot make the motor of the window go slower or faster".. Is their any way to fix the rate of the window to go up or down..?

I got under the car today to change the oil and noticed the front drivers side is about an inch lower than the passenger side its causing the inside of my tire to wear very badly.

I've just finished installing Driver Side Puddle Lights just under the mirror. I still haven't coded it yet.
[URL]..................... I ran into a problem:
As I want to use the electrical mirrors to adjust my driver side mirror, passenger side mirror moves too. Is it possible that these faults caused by not coded ECU?
I connected ground wire of my LED to blue and black cable connected to the mirror and ran another wire from unit 10 in 16 pin door connector to live wire from my LED.

I have a mkvi gti with all stock suspension except rear sway bar. And I'm right about to order driver gear springs. But have a question about suspension. My rear driver side of the car sits about half inch lower then then rear passenger side on a flat ground. Would this be caused by springs? Or struts? Or what. Planning on ordering the driver gear springs but what the real problem is. I want the driver gear so I'm a bit lowered but not crazy low since the roads in my home town are awful and my street I have to do figure 8's all the way down it to not hit a pot hole.

Heat on HIGH
Drivers side dash vent and defrost will blow fairly warm air, but no where near the 120 it should be on high
Pass side vents ( all ) blow cold air.
Car heats up fine according to the dash gauge and doesn't overhear.
I've run VCDS and there are no fault codes pulling up, so I am at a loss. With the temp being -15 with the wind-chill, it's a damn chilly drive into work. At first I thought it might be the heater core, but that wouldn't explain the split dash issue.

The other day my passenger headlight went out. Today I went to replace it, after much frustration I pulled the bumper and the headlights. I first tried swapping ignitors to see if that was the issue. I went to switch the ballast and now nothing is working except for the passenger high beam. I made an apportionment with the steelership. But I wanted to see if there was anything I maybe able to do to avoid this.

I am experiencing a clicking on the passenger side, but only when idling. If the clutch is engaged, or the engine is revved, the clicking immediately goes away. I have cleaned out all cubbies, so it is not a rattle. I have also tested the climate control with all options, AC, no AC, heat, cold, high fan, no fan...
The clicking also does not happen at all times. I noticed it today after a WOT pull on a highway ramp in 2nd and 3rd (ended up coasting in neutral as I hit traffic, and heard it then) but I have also heard it after a gentile drive, and upon startup after the car has sat for hours. Often though, there is no sound... I can hear the clicking about 20% of the time.
Finally, the sound seems to come from the passenger side, somewhere on the engine side of the glove box. When I lift the hood it is hard to hear the click with the other engine noise. I'll add that the click is fairly quick. Maybe about 60 to 80 clicks per minute.

I just recently got a 2001 1.8t jetta. It was leaking coolant and only one fan would come on. Ive fixed the coolant leak. Only the passenger side fan comes on, and the AC blows hot as well. Ive checked the fuses on the battery and they are good.

I just picked up my new 2010 Golf TDI and one thing I really miss is the passenger side mirror tilting down when I am in reverse. It is really handy for parallel parking. My Passat and BMW both have this feature and I would love to be able to do it here.

I just bought my R32 this past weekend and it's been a really great car to drive. I'm just wondering if the whizzing sound (sounds like a little fan or whir) coming from the engine compartment on the passenger side is normal. It gets louder as I add throttle.

Is there some way I can fix this? The car is brand new and the passenger headlight has a leak somewhere.

It was just pointed out to to me by a passenger yesterday that the auto up/down on the passenger side switch isn't working. I can do it when controlling from the driver side though. On the first click on the pass side nothing happens. Window only goes up/down on the second click position. I had speakers installed about a month ago but Im not sure if it's related. Do I need to take the door panel off to inspect the switch? What it could be?
