My alarm horn is malfunctioning and i'm trying to figure all this out. My normal horn on the steering wheel does not function unless the key is in the ignition. My other cars all honk without the ignition on.
View 1 RepliesMy Mom's 1998 Passat 1.8T has 340,000 miles on it. I was unaware of it until today, but apparently when it reaches around 97 degrees the clutch starts malfunctioning. She says the pedal will go to the floor and the clutch stops working. My Step-father does not think the clutch itself has ever been replaced. Sometimes she even has to pull it back up with her foot. I'm not well versed on this model as I'm primarily an A-1 guy.
View 4 RepliesThere is a feature of the lock mechanism whose name I do not know - When the key is inserted and turned it unlocks the driver's door, turned a second time it unlocks all doors, turn and hold and it lowers all the windows.
This is working intermittently. That is, the second turn does not unlock the other doors, nor does the turn-and-hold lower the windows. As a side bar, when it does not function, using the key to unlock the car it does not turn off the alarm.
I'd like to understand more thoroughly how this system operates so that I can more fully research and diagnose.
Cannot open trunk with remote or switch inside driver's door. Key entry at rear fine. Have checked all fuses. Also, front passenger window will go down with one push of switch but requires constant pull to close. Was working fine. Any connections?

View 7 RepliesHow to disable the horn from chirping on a Passat limited without hooking it up to a computer?
View 7 RepliesWhere the horn is mounted on 2.0T? The regular "honk" horn, not the separate alarm horn. Horn is sounding a bit muffled and I wanted to check for a loose bracket or debris/wet leaves, etc. I took a quick look and couldn't spot it.
View 8 RepliesI went to an independent repair shop to try and have my rain sensor and window up and down by remote(vag) he got the vag tricks to work but the alarm wouldn't respond.
He sent me to the dealer to reset everything they reset things but the alarm still doesn't beep when you turn it on. of course the dealer reset all the vag tricks. I also checked the ATA on the mfi but nothing ...
Looking for a picture or diagram on where the horns high/low are located ? The how I can remove them ?
View 8 RepliesWhen I start the ignition, the horn goes off for about 1 or 2 seconds. While engine is on the horn is not operational (I press and nothing).

How I can disable the horn toot each time I want to lock the car? The lights flashing is sufficient I think.
View 14 RepliesMy alarm is arming but no horn sound. No horn when the ignition is not on. I get flashing lights when the alarm is armed and set off, but no horn. What this could be? Is there a separate horn for the alarm? And where is it located?
View 8 RepliesI am having strange problem with my alarm horn. Some days ago alarm went off midnight and I had to leave the trunk open to stop it. Later in morning I found that when I lock the car with remote it doesn't sound but on pressing panic button it sounds well. I have checked water leaks, damp carpet, re-programmed remote, re-connected battery, got new FOB batteries and all door and trunk latches; all are fine. I ran OBD II and VAG COM but no codes found. On locking it locks all doors and hazard light blinks but horn do not sound.

View 4 Replies2010 Passat wagon. The locking horn chirp on the Passat is way too loud. I know I can turn it off, but I was wondering, if can change horn to a chirp instead. (I think this locking horn is different from the actual horn on the car, but I'm not positive) My Touareg chirp has more of a bird chirp sound which is much more subtle that the fog horn style of the Passat. If I lock the Passat late at night it wakes up everyone in the house. Also, how do you access the horn, it sounds like it is inside the passenger front fender.
View 4 RepliesIs there a way to turn off the overzealous seatbelt alarm? It chimes constantly when the seatbelt isn't on, even when the car is in park. Sometimes I unbuckle my seatbelt to get my crap together before I get out of the car, but its hot here so I like to leave the AC running while get set. I know some cars have some obscure series of button presses to turn this off. Also is there a way to stop the horn from honking when I press the lock button on the remote?

View 8 RepliesJust got a 2007 Passat with 33k on it. So far, aside from he rock chip i got on the windshield on the way to work on day 1, I love this car. Put about 500 miles on it so far in less than a week. I have to do the typical stuff like replace the DV and cam follower, but, I do have 1 question. When I lock the car or hit the panic button on the remote, only the lights go on. There is no horn sound. But, when I press the horn, it works. Could it be a fuse, if so, which one? I looked in the manual and could not find the horn fuse on the diagram.
View 6 RepliesI'm also getting an airbag fault which I'm guessing may be coming from the steering wheel sensor since nothing else is working on the steering wheel. Maybe a wiring harness or something?
View 2 RepliesLast week I got the airbag light up on my dash board. Then, my horn stopped working along with the radio controls. Now they are telling me its not being covered because of my aftermarket modifications. Now my aftermarket modifications are the following done through Vag-Com: DRLs disabled for HIDs, Remote up/down for windows.
So they are telling me they can not communicate with the module. Correct me if I'm wrong here, and I most likely am since I don't know much about this, but aren't they unable to connect to the module because.... it's defective?
