Jan 17, 2010

Looking for the right VAGCOM procedure to disable the brake sensors? I replace my brakes and the new ones didn't have the sensors. Now I get the nice "Brakes Low Warning".

Passat (B6) :: Front Brakes Are Squeaking

So my front brakes are squeaking pretty damn bad, and I'm pretty sure that I need to replace them. However, with the history that we have with the rears wearing faster than the fronts, and since neither have been replaced in 30K miles.

I don't want to have to come back and go at it again, and would rather spend one day then two getting the job done. .

Passat (B5) :: 2002 - Squeak From Front End Brakes

I have a 2002 passat and i have a squeak coming the front end of my car when i decelerate (let off the gas and coast, at low speeds). The car is a 5 speed. From other cars I have had, it sounds like it is the ebrake, like it kind of sticks on a little bit. When I coast while in neutral it does not do it. It also does it when I am in reverse, like leaving a parking spot.

Ford - Electrical-wiring - Brakes - F150 - Sensors :: 1990 - Cruise Control Quit

I recently changed out the power boost canister for the brakes on a 1990 f-150 2wd. It was successful but now i have no cruise control. I double checked my plugs, all good. I checked my brake lights, all good. brake pedal seems fine and completely raised when not in use. i looked for a fuse and can't find it for that system, seems odd. it's not in fuse jct under dash, can't find a fuse jct under hood, seems odd also. No check engine light has lit.

Passat (B5) :: Vibration Coming From Front Of The Engine After Brakes Fixed

Yesterday, I went to pick my car up from getting an oil change (full synthetic, Mobil 1 5w-30) and an estimate on brakes. turned out to not be quite as much as i had anticipated. while i was in making an appointment for the brake job, my mechanic and i were joking about how if it's not one thing, its another on VW's. And how the car will be in great shape after i get the brakes fixed/replaced.

So i go outside to drive home. When i start the car, there is this odd squeaking/vibration sound coming from the front of the engine. I immediately shut it down and go get the mechanic. after 30 minutes of muddling over it, we determine that it cannot be determined from just looking at it. so they're going to check it out on wednesday when it goes in for brakes.

A little more info, it is definitely something to do with the serpentine belt, because the sound is definately coming from the drivers side front of the engine. If you listen near the timing belt cover there is no sound so i'm pretty sure its not that. and the car drives fine, besides the weird noises that make it sound like a diesel at idle.

its a 2002 1.8t 5 speed wagon, 143,000 miles. I know 5w-30 mobil 1 is not 502 certified.

Passat (B5) :: 1999 - ABS And Brake Light Come On - Squeak From Front Brakes

I have a 1999 VW Passat 1.8T and the ABS light and Brake light come on from time to time but never steady for more than a few days at a time. I'm not sure why but my brakes work fine. The only possible thing is a squeak from the front brakes but they squeaked before the light came on. What this might be or how to fix it?

Passat (B5) :: High Pitch Squeal From Front Brakes Mostly When Cold Or Wet

2002 Passat wagon. I recently had my independent VW shop install new front and rear brake pads and rotors that I provided. The pads are PBR Axis Deluxe ceramic pads. Soon after, the front brakes started a high pitch squeal - mostly when cold or wet.

I took it back to the mechanic and he told me there is nothing he can do about it - I must have defective pads and that maybe they are covered under warranty, as they certainly need to be replaced, ...

This shocked me, especially the lack of customer service, but because I provided the pads I don't think I have much leverage with them other than not to do business with them again.

Is there any way to quiet a squeaking brake pad? Might the mechanic not done something he should have done to prevent squeaks?

Passat (B6) :: Front Brakes Make Rubbing Noise That Sounds Like A Honk

So after I come to a full stop and then release the pedal to start moving again the front brakes make a rubbing noise that sounds like a "honk". Im not sure if this is a trait of Automatic cars as the car is trying to push foward on its own. My previous cars were all stick. My wifes car (Auto also) does not do this. Also the Auto Hold feature is very jarring when you step on the gas to go the car almost lurches foward as the brake disengages. Is it just my car or is there something that needs adjustment?

Passat (B7) :: Clunk Or Pop Noise From Left Front Wheel When Brakes Applied

I have started hearing a noise with my brakes. First thing in the morning when I back up and apply the brakes, I get a clunk or pop noise from the left front wheel. It will pop again once I move forward and hit the brakes. It only does the noise one time when I first apply the brakes in either direction. Once the brakes have been used out on the road and are warm, there is no noise when changing directions. I've had this noise in another car I used to have and it was caused by the aftermarket brake pads not being exactly large enough and there was slight pad shifting in the caliper. Being this is a new car and has the OEM pads, I would hope there would be no pad shifting or movement in the calipers.

What sensors are in the front bumper? I slid out on black ice into a snow bank and it crushed in the bottom grille and as I'm clearing out the snow I noticed a sensor dangling with a broken harness that I was wondering what it was for. I have a nonFsport bumper with LED fog lights and both fog lights are operational.

Prius (2004-09) :: Front Parking Sensors Don't Turn Off

I have a 2007 Prius 90'000km with new 12V battery from last year. The problem I have is that the front parking sensors won't turn off when I park my car close to an object and shut the engine off. This fully drain my battery and I have to jump start the car everytime I switch it on. The technician from Toyota repair shop couldn't fix it and proposed to switch the front parking sensors off by unplugging the switch under the wheel. That didn't fix the problem at all since it didn't deactivate the front parking sensor but only deactivated the switch.

Passat (B5) :: DTC P0422 - How To Test O2 Sensors

I have a 1998 Passat 1.8 T with 137k miles on it that has been throwing the P0422 code. I've reset it at Schuck's and it has come back. Car is running fine and no rattle in the catalytic converter. Although it could still be the cat, it could just as well be something with the O2 sensors. Don't have a VAG-COM tool to check them directly. Is there some way other way to determine which O2 sensor it might be and/or if it is really the cat?

Passat (B7) :: Wet Windscreen Sensors Non Operative

The 2012 PASSAT has the built in facility to operate the winsdcreen wipers and adjust the rear view mirror for bright lights. Why delivery cars having this function enabled? Dealer outright refuses to activate them, even though they appear to be the exact same as in the 2012 EOS.

Passat (B5) :: What Would Be Tripping Brake Sensors

So I just installed a new set of brakes on the front end of my car.

Every once in a while now the sensor trips and I get that lovely yellow circle image on my dash.

The pads are BRAND NEW! I clipped the sensors into their spot once I installed the pads. Should I tape them down?

Other than the wire connection between the pad and the car... what could be tripping this light?

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Wrapping Front Bumper Mid-section Parking Sensors

So I've seen a lot of people on here wrapping the mid section of the front bumper black to give it a more aggressive look.

For those that have done this, will I need to cut a hole for the sensors or will the sensors still work with the wrap covering them?

Ford Brakes/Suspension :: Smell From Brakes And Left Front Rotor Hot

My 97 f150 had been sitting for a while and after a few miles I could smell brakes and the left front rotor was hot. So I removed the caliper to see if I could free it up. When i push 1 piston in with a C clamp the other one comes out and visa-verse but I cannot push both in with 2 C clamps. When I push the brake pedal they both come out. Its like there is a check valve in the line. How should I go about trouble shooting this?

Ford Brakes/Suspension :: Front Brakes Locks Up / Tires Screeching

On braking my front brakes locks up and there's a screeching of tires. Once I release the pedal all seems fine...or is it?

I dissassembled the front brake calipers and cleaned out the cylinder bores and blew out any contaminants from the line. Reassembled and bled the system only to find the pads doesn't move as freely from the rotors as they should. C-clamped the cylinder as far back in the caliper as it will go, pumped the brakes and still the rotor doesn't move freely from the pads, when the pedal is released...which accounts for the radical "loss of power", as the front brakes are holding on.

Bare in mind the vehicle hasn't seen the long road for almost 5 years and has been under the grinder/ welder/ primer/ sanding for most of that period and only moves out in the driveway when it's a good day to work outside.

New flex hoses? Flush the brake fluid from the whole system and start fresh? New caliper rubber seals? Blow the lines out with compressed air to rid of goop? New proportioning valve?
