I have entered too many symbol on my sat nav map display, e.g., petrol station, car park, train station, etc. The map display looked very congested and would like to delete some of the symbol. There is no instruction in the handbook for removing the symbol.
View 5 RepliesLittle background, I have a 2005 Prius that i've had since 55K that now has 114K on it. I have never had to replace the battery so it could possibly be that but this morning I received the red exclamation and this weird D symbol.

Continued to drive fine. Definitely not limping! Came home and scanned it. First scan had ABS intermittent fault. Cleared all faults. Engine Fault warning in MFD has now go. Still drives fine only with annoying flashing light!

Today the solid engine symbol showed up inside my tachometer (no workshop message in the instrument panel display). The owners manual says this is an exhaust system problem. What do you make of the following scan:

I've had problems with my w12 2003 in that it doesn't fire on all cylinders. Eventually the "exhaust"-symbol lights up and I had to take it to a vw-center. They did change 1 "ignition coil" (if that is the right term for it) and it worked fine for some months. But last week it happened again, it is rather awkward since you get heavy vibrations from the normally unperceptible engine. I had to tow it to the same vw-center and now they change the remaining 11 "ignition coils". However it doesn't run true...! The "exhaust" symbol didn't light but the motor didn't fire on all cylinders, it was quit noticeable. Is this a known problem? What else than the "ignition coils" can be the cause of the problem?

View 2 RepliesI've having difficulty removing the taillights from the trunk. I'm sure it is simple but there must be a trick to do this properly. I've removed the nuts but I can't bulge the "lockwashers" per the instructions. The threaded stud is a special design and has some type of spring mechanism. I tried removing one of these a few years ago and I broke the stud. How is this done? Below are the Bentley instructions which are not useful.

View 4 RepliesI am a new V8 Phaeton owner. I have had the car since December and have only put about 2,000 on the car. I have always been the kind of person who takes great pride in doing much of their own maintenance on cars. Plus. How do you get the passenger side air box out to access the oil filter? I can get the upper section apart but can't get the lower section of the airbox out and I am scared to break it.
View 4 RepliesIt frustrates me to have to ask but I can't find what I'm looking for after several attempts. The footwell cover just below the steering wheel appears to have hinges at its bottom so I'm thinking the top merely snaps into place but I've found no literature referencing that. I've pulled what I felt was a safe amount with no release and I don't want to damage the cover if I'm wrong on my assumption. I can't see any screws to remove but I'm just not sure, what does it take to remove?
I've got the Bentley repair manual but it skips by this as it's not worth referencing going straight to the cover behind it.
How to remove the plastic engine cover that covers the engine? I'm know some of them are just held in place with friction plugs and only require a good tug, but I've thought that about other things in the past which have resulted in expensive noises.
