Ford Excursion :: Glove Box Won't Open

My glove box won't open. The handle isn't pulling the latch release. Is there a "trick" to get into the glove box to try and repair without breaking it?

Elantra GD (2013+) :: Glove Box Keeps Popping Open

The glove box on my wife's '13 elantra keeps popping open. I guess the little plastic latch that keeps it up is not going into the hole far enough when it's closed, so after a while it slides out.

Would rather avoid a trip to the dealer (not even sure if it would be covered under warranty anymore, the car is over 3 years old).

Santa Fe (DM - 2013+) :: Glove Box Popping Open

When closing my glove box, it will open back out. That's if I slap it on and let go. I noticed that there are 2 notches sliding out of the glove box. If I push them in by hand, they slide out slowly. So I tried to close the glove box and keep my hand on it for a couple of seconds for the notches to slide. It stays closed this way. I'm suspecting this is tied to the cold weather we're having lately. I hope I don't have to take it apart to re-lube it or anything like that.

Golf VI R :: How To Open Light Boxes For Glove Box / Footwell

I have searched and everyone just states to press in the tabs and the cover pops off. Well this is not the case for me, the lids won't budge and the tabs seem to be recessed as is. This can't be as hard as i'm making it.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Trunk Won't Open, Tried Glove Box Switch And Fuse

2007 GS350 48K miles

I don't hear the motor lock the trunk either. I can open it with a broom handle through the back seat ok or with the actual metal key, but pressing the button on the remote or next to the steering wheel does nothing. I checked the fuse, and the glove box switch.

Anything else I can try? It's no worry since its still under warranty, but if it's something simple it would save me the trip.

Phaeton :: Loud Grinding Noise Coming From The Glove Box?

Whenever I start my car, there is about 20 seconds of loud grinding coming from the glove box. It's sort of a tak-tak-tak-grrr-tak-tak-tak-grrr over and over. I've opened the glove box and noticed that with each start, the Navi box spits out the DVD, makes an awful grinding noise, then self-reinserts the navi DVD. I'm guessing this isn't normal, as it jars the normally whisper-smooth operation of my Phaeton. Is there an easy fix, or is this something to take the car into the dealer for? It would my first time taking it in for anything.

Phaeton :: Switch Inside Of Car Does Not Open Gas Cap

Car started acting up the other week. I had my AGM battery replaced and that solved 99% of my problems.

Gas Cap - The switch inside of my car does not open the gas cap, I have to go in through the trunk. Do you think this is switch related or do you think this is actuator related?

Trunk Switch - The button on the bottom edge inside of my trunk does not work. Does this switch need to be replaced?

Driver Side Door Tumbler - When I go to manually unlock my car, I do not feel any force back on my key.

Do I need a new manual tumbler to unlock my car? Could a circuit just be unplugged?Right Side Wiper Blade - It just isn't working, but the left one is. Do I need a new motor or relay?

Phaeton :: Boot Open While On Drive?

Twice this past fortnight I've come down in the morning to find my boot open while the car is on the drive, and as I normally store around 600 worth of golf kit in there this obviously isn't ideal !

Either someone else's transmissions are opening it or, more likely, I'm accidently pushing the button as I fumble around trying to get two small kids and associated baggage through the front door.

Is there any way of disabling the key fob boot release without disabling the switch function of the VW sign on the boot ? I'm considering opening up the remote and removing the switch unless can think of a better solution ?

Phaeton :: Trunk Will Not Open With Door Switch

My Phaeton has been in the shop for about a week because the trunk will not open with the switch on the door. The key will open it, but no the door switch. They said it was hard to fix because there is no wire running from the switch to the trunk. Is it just another one of the many "secrets" of the Phaeton.

Phaeton :: Any Way To Keep Front Vent Covers Open With Car Off?

I took my car in for its first detail (while mine, that is). How to keep the front vent covers open with the car off, for purposes of cleaning the vent directional slats. The best I could figure out in a hurry was, with the key in accessory or the engine on, to switch climate to manual (direct air) to open the covers, set the fan to lowest speed (one light segment above off,) and position the vent switches to furthest left light illuminated (again, one position above off.) Is there any way to keep the covers open with the car, or at least the HVAC fan, off?

Phaeton :: Car Parked For 10 Days And Remote Won't Open The Doors

My Phaeton has been parked in my garage locked for about 10 days and the remote will not open the doors. Additionally the key will not go in the key slot in the door. Not sure why that would be an issue. I can open the trunk but the Alarm goes off when I do that!
What can I do to get in the car. The remote shows a green light so I know that battery is good but and the flashing door lights flash.

Phaeton :: Headlamp Washer Covers Get Open When Parking The Car Every Once In A While

Every once in a while one of the headlamp washer covers will be open when I park the car. When that happens I just push it back into place, but it would seem that there should be some sort of auto-retract spring or something to keep it from gravity opening. Is there a spring that might be missing on mine?

Phaeton :: Rear Driver Side Door Won't Open From Outside

Learning how to operate my newly acquired 2004 V8 Phaeton...not too mention convincing me to purchase one. I think I even like its occassional quirkiness, such as TPMS faults - its like it has a personality.

Anyway, I have not found an answer to a problem which started yesterday:

- Rear driver-side door won't operate using outside handle
- Confirmed its unlocked, can open from inside & child locks (not that those should affect it) are off
- No problem opening passenger side rear door
- I think I hear a mechanism in the door moving when I pull the outside handle on the working side, don't hear it on the non-working door

I believe there is a cable which is attached to the door handle which may have come loose. I do have a VW Real Driver Warranty (10 Years)...and although door handles are specifically excluded, I don't think this is likely a "door handle" problem, but rather something inside the door which has broken.
