Passat (B6) :: Reflection From A Lot Of Interior Pieces


Jun 20, 2007

The sun seems to reflect from a lot of interior pieces, mainly the ALU piece to the right of the 2 storage drawers, and also the shifter surround ring. It is not just a little reflection, it blinds me at times and I have to look to the left, put something on top to cover it or close my eyes.

Passat (B5) :: 2001 - Interior Trim Pieces Falling Out

The interior trim pieces that are located where the ceiling intersects with the door are falling out. I tried using Gorilla glue to hold them in place but the heat keeps melting it. If I order the new part from the dealer is the trim easy to install myself?

Passat (B5) :: Oil Dipstick Missing Pieces

Just finished changing my oil and noticed that the dipstick was cracked. Upon further inspection I noticed the end which mates with the plastic tube was cracked and there were missing chips. I can only imagine where they ended up, in the oil. My question is, what to do? Since this is a plastic component, I assume that it will not harm the interior engine parts, but not 100% sure.

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Reducing Dash Reflection On Windshield

When I am driving and the sun is hitting the top of the dashboard, I get a reflection of the dashboard in my windshield. I have the gray interior, so it isn't terribly distracting. However, it would be really nice to tone it down some. The interior of my new Sonata is nice and I don't want something tacky. I have done some looking at dash mats on the web but I don't know how well they fit, how well they work, and if they would pass my tackiness test.

Prius C :: Reflection Of Dashboard On Windshield During Daytime Makes View Cloudy

This last week, I bought a Prius C 4, love everything about it but... the front windshield reflection. The reflection of the dashboard during daytime makes the view somewhat cloudy, at night the reflection at night appears to be like a shroud over most of the windshield. So much so that the peripheral vision is almost nil. I think this can be dangerous as demonstrated by almost hitting 2 deer on my first drive home! I've ordered a dashmat cover and await its delivery. Hopefully this will alleviate the problem, if not my dealer will be getting the car back until this problem is resolved. Dimming the dashboard light has no effect.

Prius (Gen 2) :: Metal Hardware Pieces For Brakes Have Broken

The little metal hardware pieces for my brakes since I've had the car they have broken three times within a year recently. A mechanic who was the last to replace them said the brake pads were fine and wasn't sure why they keep breaking. Going to add a picture of the piece I'm talking about.

When driving my Prius when below 40 mph the two front tire area makes an awful clanking sound because of the hardware breaking.

Golf/GTI VI :: Polishing Black Plastic Trim Pieces On The Doors?

I noticed that I have some light scratches on the black plastic trim on outside of the doors (more than likely done by the place that tinted my windows, ). How to buff these out. They are more like micro-scratches and swirl marks more than anything else. I tried car paint polish in a small corner and it had no effect.

Golf VI R :: Trim Pieces Inside Of The Front Doors Are Missing?

I was washing my car today and noticed that the trim pieces inside of the front doors are missing. The drivers door has a screw in it and the passenger door has a little plastic bumper and it just falls out if you touch it. I don't remember this piece ever being there before and there is no screw on this door right now. The pieces that I am talking about next extend along the door edge to finish it off. I remember these pieces because when I washed my car and wiped the door edges for the first time I recalled my MKV GTI not having this piece. My car was at a local shop for a couple of days and I think someone came in to visit and took these. The shop is very loosie goosie about letting their friends walk around the shop floor.

I was wondering if someone could shoot a pic of their door edges for me. I am going to order this part on Monday.

Volkswagen - Beetle :: 2000 - A/C Blows Pieces Of Foam And Temperature Changes

Air conditioning is serious as a heat stroke, so when my 2000 Beetle started blowing brittle pieces of foam from the A/C vents, moaning at stop lights, and refusing to cool, action was required. That was last summer, and I had the A/C "fixed" – new compressor (a dryer thingy had gone bad), a fresh charge of freon, and gloriously arctic air. There was still foam, but who cares as long as it’s cold? (I know the foam is disintegrating due to age, not rodents.) The shop told me they could fix the foam problem but that it would mean taking off the dash, could cost $900 in labor, and that not fixing it meant nothing worse than flying foam.

Now in the second summer, the air still blows cold but only sometimes, and it spits more foam than ever. When the air isn’t cold, if I twiddle all the knobs, especially the one that directs air from my face to my feet to the defrost and back, eventually the vents belch out more foam and give me cold air. This mainly works at 70+ mph. A recent development is that air blows on my toes as well as my face when I have the dial set for face-air-only. My tootsies love it, but I’m concerned that when all the foam breaks free I’ll have air coming from all vents at once, maybe hot, maybe cold.

So I have two questions:

(1) When all the foam has flown out the windows, will I have reliable temperature control?
(2) If the answer to 1 is no, would it be cheaper to sell my dear Sunshine to CarMax for a lesser price and let them dismantle the dash or pay the shop and keep driving her a while?

Passat (B6) :: Swapping Interior LED

I can't figure out by any means if there are any means to do a complete interior LED swap. I was able to successfully change the center dome light but I can't figure out what to replace the reading lights with without taking it apart and matching them up.

Honda - Fit :: Right Front Tire Making A Noise Like 2 Pieces Of Metal Are Touching

My right front tire has been making a noise like 2 pieces of metal are touching. Not quite a grinding but maybe more like a squealing. It starts slowly at low speeds and then faster at high speeds. If I brake the sound goes away, but then slowly starts coming back. What this might be?

Passat (B5) :: 1998 - Interior Light Would Not Come On

I have a 1998 B5 passat when I purchased the car everything was fine shortly after the interior lights would not come on,but the lighting outside was fine. I immediately thought it was the switch so I purchased a new one from ECS tuning right out of the box same problem,but I discovered if wiggle the switch sometime it would come on. Thinking it was a short in the switch I purchased a switch directly from VW at almost four times the cost and right out of the box same issue.
