Golf V R32 :: Vehicle Shift Itself When Used Launch Control


Apr 28, 2008

I took note of this over the weekend. When you use Launch Control in tiptronic and you let the vehicle shift itself, it shifts at 6500-6700 rpms. But if you do Launch Control in Sport mode in first and second gear it shifts at 7100 rpms.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: No Lift Shift And Launch Control

I bought a gonzo tune with no lift shift and launch control. I backfire during the launch but not when I no lift shift. It only happens once in a while. Mind you my friend had the same car with same upgrades and his was working better. Both gonzo tuned. What could be the issue?

Golf V R32 :: Car Don't Move For Launch Control

I think there may be something wrong with my launch control, or perhaps i'm doing it wrong. I'm noticing that it doesn't seem to be "launching," instead it'll sit there for a few seconds and then begin to move, but it never launches.

How i'm doing it: Come to a complete stop, switch to S mode, turn off ESP, foot on brake, accelerate to ~2-3k RPMs, let off brake. It was recently at the VW dealer for the hole-less grille and I told them to take a look at it, but they said they found nothing wrong with it.

Golf V R32 :: Little Lurching When Hit The Gas / Launch Control Not Working

Launch control not working, even though everything is done correctly? I was sitting at a light last night, put it in "S" mode, turned off ESP, pressed the brake down, hit the gas and only hit 2K and a little lurching... Tried it a couple more times, same thing... Next light, it worked just fine... Next light, same things again happened with 2K only and lurching...

Golf VI R :: DSG Tune - Unable To Set Launch Control Over 4000 RPM

DSG tune was supposed to set launch control for 4200, 4300 or 4500 rpm launch but the gearbox will not go above 4000 rpm? My tuner has tried 3 different files (4100, 4500, 4600) on my 2009 S3 but the actual launch control rpm is still 4000.

Saturn - Outlook :: Transmission - Vehicle Wouldn't Shift Out Of First Gear

Five months ago I purchased a Saturn with 60,000 miles. Yesterday upon leaving my driveway it wouldn't shift out of first gear. Turned around , put it in the garage & tried to backup, put it in reverse & the vehicle would not move and the tranny made a loud whine. For the past two weeks the tranny made a loud " clunk " when it shifted into second, also on the highway it wouldn't shift into high gear & was running at 2500 rpm. Is this an electronic issue or more ?

Expedition :: 2001 - Fuse Blowing / Vehicle Would Not Shift Out Of Park

This fuse controls the interior lights, power windows, and the brake pedal shifter release. I noticed the problem when the vehicle would not shift out of park.

I replaced #15 fuse (5amp) and everything worked fine however several hours later with the vehicle simply parked the fuse blew again.

Appears to be a "short" of some kind but it seems to take several hours for the fuse to blow.

Prius (Gen 3) :: Vehicle Stability Control Light Came On Along With ABS Symbol

Yesterday, my vehicle stability control light came on along with the ABS symbol. I stopped the car and turned it back on and the car would not come out of Park.

I restarted the car and was able to shift into drive but, both symbols remained and the MFD showed no regenerative braking and the brakes were clearly mechanical only by sound and feel.

I think I took a rather short trip with the parking brake partially engaged, I was talking to my son who was home for the weekend.

I set and released it several times with no results. I finally parked the car, set the brake and checked for codes in my Scangauge-none. But, I did a "clear codes" anyhow.

I've only driven home yesterday and this morning to work. So far, nothing unusual, I have my fingers and stubby little toes crossed.

Prius C (Audio/Electronics) :: Bluetooth Feature Takes Too Long To Launch

LOVE everything about the Prius C! Only issue is that once I punch the Bluetooth option, it takes at least a good 30 seconds to connect. Is that normal? (I use an iPhone 4S with updated iOS). I was driving an Elantra with the same feature and it hooked up within 5-10 seconds.

Prius V :: Engine Won't Recognize Drive / Cruise Control - Accelerates The Vehicle On Its Own

I have a 2012 Prius v. It has intermittent, minor to serious problems that have not been detected by the computer. These include, when engine is READY, it won't recognize Drive. When in Drive is moves in Reverse, has locked keys in the car and does not always recognize key. The Cruise Control sometimes accelerates the vehicle on its own.

The Braking option doesn't always work properly. When touching the brakes the lights turn off. Sometimes when turning the lights on or off, the radio turns off. A new problem is that the brakes almost fail to engage, then, at the last minute they do. Toyota has sent a regional rep to take a test drive with computer diagnostics and found nothing. So, they won't do anything. These problems have occurred since I purchased the vehicle.

I have suggested that they trade cars with me while someone else drives it until they experience these events (actually the very first event was seen by a service person but that doesn't count, apparently); change computers; reprogram the computer. They won't do any of these things. It seems that if it doesn't show up on the computer when they are looking at it they won't do anything. There can be a long time between events and the events sometimes occur in clusters.

Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: 2010 Cruise Control Installation Different Than 2007 Vehicle?

I installed an aftermarket cruise (Rostra) in my manual 2007 Corolla. Other than cutting the hole for the stalk the only real difficulty was getting my fat hands up under the dash to install the clutch disconnect switch. It certainly didn't involve any wire cutting or messing around with the ECM.

It's a long story, but through a sequence of events I have to opportunity to buy a 2010 base Corolla 5 speed at a pretty good deal. It also doesn't have a cruise control. I went tot eh Rostra website just to make sure cruise units are available and I looked at the installation instructions. Unless I read the wrong sheet, their instructions make it seem like installing cruise on a 2010 involves messing with the ECM wiring harness, moving connectors and a bunch of scary stuff like that.

It seems strange to me that the older car would be "plug and play" but a newer one would need changes to the main wiring harnesses. I'm not talking about a steering wheel mounted system where the clock spring has to be replaced, just a basic cruise.

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Dynamic Radar Cruise Control Fails To Slow Down The Vehicle

Symptom: Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) fails to slow down the vehicle, (with slowing down or stopped vehicle in front) when DISPlay button on the steering wheel is pressed several times after DRCC is set.

The issue was tested several times with my 2015 GS350 AWD, Canadian model. Maybe it only applies to me, or perhaps it applies to all models with Lexus Dynamic Radar Cruise Control equipped.

Tests: Speed up, turn on main cruise control, and start DRCC when there's no vehicle in front, set to desired cruise speed, set the distance range control to desired range. Now, press the DISPlay button on the handle a few times (5-6, maybe flip through the whole menus, long and short presses. You are all set. Now, drive up to a stopped vehicle or moving vehicle closing to a stop (or slowing down). 4 to 5 out of 10 times, I found out that the DRCC does not sense the vehicle in front, not applying the necessary brake. The screen (where vehicle in front is pictured) shows the vehicle in front at times, other times, The sensing screen is just left blank. Still, the vehicle is on cruise mode and keeps the set speed, however the it acts like a regular cruise control, NOT the dynamic radar one when approaching a slowing down vehicle. At times, pre-collision warning beeps if the vehicle in too close, still no brake. When I says 4 to 5 out of 10 times, the other 5 to 6 out of 10 times, it works beautifully as it is suppsed to. (i.e. slowing the vehicle accordingly)

I tested several times at the 45km/h (30 miles/h), just enough to get the DRCC on, day and night, the vehicle failed to slow down in front of a slowing down vehicle (or a stopped vehicle). At times, the pre-collision warning beeps when the vehicle is at a close distance. I am suspecting that when DISPLAY button is pressed during Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is ON, DRCC fails to work as it should. Not every time, but several times.

I first experienced this at a highway moving at 100km (62 miles) and almost rear ended the vehicle in front if I didn't quicky changed the lane, and warning beep alerted.

I know I shouldn't rely on these technology and I do not, however, if this is a software issue, it should be corrected.

I've been trying to find out when exactly this issue would happen and record on my phone, but I couldn't. I was able to record one occasion on my cell phone, however, it was at night and the vehicle in front was actually a parked vehicle with the rear lights off. (although I think it should've still worked). I am still trying to come up with exact occasion for this issue and get it on video. (Speed/DRCC ON timing/AC/Lights/etc)

Subaru - Outback :: 2011 - CEL / Vehicle Dynamics Control And Flashing Brake Light On

I'm on a road trip and was taking off this morning when my CEL, vehicle dynamics control light came on steadily, with a flashing brake light. It's Sunday and no repair shops are open and I need to drive from CO to S. Cal today. Is it safe to travel? From what I've seen, it could be a problem with the gas cap or ABS is disabled. Haven't had cruise control light come on (yet), but haven't tried driving anywhere.

Pontiac - Vibe :: 2009 - Check Engine / Vehicle Stability / Traction Control System Lights Came On

I have a 2009 Pontiac Vibe with 43,000 miles. Recently the check engine light, the vehicle stability control light and the traction control system light all came on simultaneously. Since then they have all come on or all gone off several times. Usually once they come on, they stay on for the remainder of the trip. Sometimes they will still be on when I next start the car, sometimes they will be off. What might be causing this?

So i was trying to adjust my freinds shift linkage on his o2j and i got a little ahead of myself and forgot to put the shift tower in the home position before making the adjustment. after i realized you can't shift into second ( either that or 2nd and 4th are extremely close together now and feel like the same gear ).
