Golf V R32 :: Fuel Cap Light Coming On Randomly

I live 3 hours from the nearest VW dealer and the fuel cap light has been coming on randomly although it is secure, and yesterday I filled up at my normal station, I filled it up to the first click on the pump and fuel started pouring out from underneath the car I probably lost over 1/2 gallon. I did have the fuel tank recall done maybe 7k miles ago and all has been well.

Ford - Escort :: Lights Dimming / Low Fuel Light Coming On

The car has 269,231 miles. A few days ago, my wife said the lights began dimming, the fuel indicator needle began dropping and rising and the low fuel light came on (with 3/4 of a tank). Thinking it was some kind of electrical issue, I took it to the local parts store and had the battery, starter, alternator, etc, checked. There was a little corrosion build up on the positive battery terminal but everything else checked out ok.

Ford - E150 :: Check Engine Light Keeps Coming On - Vacuum Leak / Fuel Pump

I recently had a Jasper rebuilt engine installed in my Ford E150. Since than my check engine light keeps coming on and the computer is saying my cas air mix is "lean". The instaler says i need a new fuel pump.Another mechanic says it is more likely a vacuum problem.I know it's possible that the fuel pump is bad bur since this has just started since the install, I don't believe it can be the fuel pump unless it's just one hell of a coincidence.

Passat (B6) :: 2010 - Low Fuel Warning Light But No Chime

The "Low Fuel Warning" light came on my new Wagon the other day but I noticed that there was no chime associated with it. Also, there was a new screen (Vehicle Status) in addition to the usual Setup, MFD, Phone and Audio, telling me I need to refuel but again at no point did I get a warning chime. Is this something that should be enabled? The car is 2010 with 2.0T engine and 'new' (red on white) gauge cluster.

Passat (B5) :: Marker Light Comes On When Fuel Pump Is Running

More electrical gremlins. The car is a 2000 1.8t, it has had some running issues since I got it a few weeks ago. I replaced the ECM (had water damage), fuel pump relay and battery and it was running fine all week, my wife went to start it after work and it died when she took the e-brake off. I went to her work to get her and noticed the rear marker light was on when the car was running. Got the car home and now it wont run for more than about a minute and the light comes in when the fuel pump is running, turn the key but don't start the car and the pump and light come on for a second and go out. Start the car and the light stays in until the car dies.

Is there anywhere in the system these two circuits are connected? Do they share a load relay anywhere?

Passat (B5) :: Fuel Line Clogged - Lost Power After Stopping At Red Light

Today on the way to work at a red light I'm stopped light turns green I try and go and no power in fact when I hit the gas my rpms go lower first thing I think is I fried the clutch but it idles fine an when I hit the gas rpms go down and the at wants to bog out. Then after I get it towed home I try and crank it over it doesn't start. My thinking then is fuel. So I go to check the fuses everything is fine when I try and crank the car to start it you can hear the fuel pump kick on and then when I go to turn it over I only have crank so could it be the fuel line is clogged? I thought that if it was an injector it would start and just smoke bad. It's a 1.8t Aeb engine and yes I change my oil every 3 k miles and do all the work myself.

Passat (B6) :: Low Fuel Light Came On And Gas Gauge Needle Went To Empty With Tank 3/4 Full

So yesterday I was driving home from work.. I know my tank was 3/4 full. All of a sudden, my low fuel light came on and my gas gauge needle went to empty.

The needle sits at E, but it still says about 20 miles till empty on the MFD. When I left the house this morning, it said 5miles till empty.. by the time I got to work, it said 20. Kinda odd..

I will hook up the vagcom when I get home tonight, any area I should scan for? or just a complete scan? There is no CEL error on the dash though. What I could look at to fix this?

Passat (B6) :: Won't Start After Getting Gas / Check Gas Cap Light Keeps Coming On

This started about 2 weeks ago. Every time I get gas, I fasten the gas cap tightly, and then go to start my car and it won't start. It won't turn.

I'll try once or twice, and then sit for a few minutes. Then I try again, and it'll turn and catch, but then sputter for a minute and I have to keep pressing the gas pedal..after a minute of this, it'll run OK.

Not sure if its related, but the check gas cap light keeps coming on.

Ford Fuel System :: 4180c - Fuel Coming Out Of Primary Vent Tube

I have a F-250 4WD with 7.5L which has a MC/Holley 4180c sitting on top. It was getting very poor mpg (like 5-6 miles/gal) and then was getting harder and harder to start. This progressed rather quickly to not starting with fuel coming out of the primary vent tube. I suspect it has to do with the primary float stuck open. I was considering rebuilding the carburetor. Is this over reaction prematurely or is there something like float adjustment that may rectify all of the symptoms described. If a rebuild is in order what is the information I would need to ensure getting the correct rebuild kit. Info that I have so far from research is it is Motorcraft ID #E5HE-9510-MC.

Passat (B5) :: 2000 V6 - ABS / Brake Light In The Dash Is Coming On

I have a 2000 Passat w V6 thats in the shop at the dealers. The ABS/Brake light in the dash is coming on. The dealer says I need a new sensor in the ABS module. This sensor cost $700 plus about $400 in labor. Seems very pricey to me. My question is, could I buy a used ABS module and replace the bad one with the bad sensor myself? Where could I get a used or new ABS module at a good price? Is it hard to change out?

I am getting a check engine light about every 4 days. It is stupid suff like secondary air, or catalytic below efficency... Is there any way to prevent the light from coming on over these faults?
