I went to my car about an hour ago to check the air pressure and add air to it due to the TMPS whining. While doing this I noticed that it seems like the passenger side of the car is sitting lower (space between the tire and wheel well is smaller) than on the driver side.
Is this possible and what could be the cause of this if my eyes weren't deceiving me?
I have koni seyup and my car is lowered all the way down all around. my front passenger side sits lower then the driver side.. I also have camber plates in the front. What u think could be the problem.

View 8 RepliesI have a mkvi gti with all stock suspension except rear sway bar. And I'm right about to order driver gear springs. But have a question about suspension. My rear driver side of the car sits about half inch lower then then rear passenger side on a flat ground. Would this be caused by springs? Or struts? Or what. Planning on ordering the driver gear springs but what the real problem is. I want the driver gear so I'm a bit lowered but not crazy low since the roads in my home town are awful and my street I have to do figure 8's all the way down it to not hit a pot hole.
View 3 RepliesJust replaced the rear window regulator/motor assemblies on both doors. The cable guided regulator just worn out. Now the passenger side rear window will not lower at either the drivers rocker switch or the rear rocker switch. I did check for voltage at the motor connection (two wire) and have 12.4 V when raise is depressed, but 0 V when lower is selected.
View 6 RepliesHow do you get the front lower control arm bolt off of the passenger side? There isn't even enough room to get a short socket between the bolt and the oil pan...
I imagine I can get it off with a box wrench and some sweat. But then how do you torque it putting it back on? Crows foot?
Was out cleaning my windows today, and had the key turned to the accessory position so I could lower and raise the windows while I cleaned them. The passenger side rear window wouldn't lower (either from the switch on the passenger door itself, or the switch on the master panel on the driver's door.) The other 3 windows worked just fine. I immediately started planning on when I could get the car to the dealer
On a lark, I started the car to see if that made a difference and the passenger side rear window worked just fine. I then shut off the car, put the key back to the accessory position, and the window continued to work just fine.
I know jack about tie rods. But what I do know is the passenger lower-outer tie rod is clunky [Right where it connects near the wheel. Jacked up the truck and moved the tire from right to left and the passenger side lower tie rod made a very obvious clunking noise right where it connects with the upper piece.
My question is, can I just replace the passenger lower arm or do I need to replace the upper [not sure what it's called] that it connects into? While under the truck I found it difficult to figure out exactly how they are joined together and taken apart? My drivers side is nice and tight, no clunking.
2005 F-250 CREW CAB 4X4
I have a 2005 Ford Ranger Edge 4x4. 4.0, 5 speed. Pretty bare bones truck. On the 4th, my truck was fine... Good deal. On the morning of the 5th, I had a no start issue. No crank, no lights, nada. Figured it's the battery as the one in it was in there when I got it. Got a new one and dropped it in. No difference. This morning I drove me other truck and when I tried to start it this morning I got a clicking in the lower passenger side area. The dash is dark except for the battery and airbag lights, and they're really really dim. This is my newest to me truck and one before this was a 74 Chevy. So computer ones are not my strong point at all.
View 14 RepliesI have a Phaeton and came to go out last night, only to notice an oily deposit on the drive in the rain (live in NW England so its always raining) started the car and there is a loud whining noise from the passenger side (no, its not the wife) that gets worse when you turn the wheel. My first thought was steering pump, but when I check, all the steering fluids look to be fine and are near the max level.
View 4 RepliesI got the "check lights" message a few days ago, however only driving the car during the day for those days I couldn't immediately track down the problem. Well, tonight we went out for Goodberry's (frozen custard chain in NC..amazing), and I noticed the passenger-side trunk tail light was out. The other three lights were fine. Now, since these are LED and the entire circle of lights is out, my first thought was a fuse. I checked the fuse (24 if I remember correctly) and it looked to be fine. Besides, I think both of the right-side lights are on that fuse. So, it's most likely not the 20 bulbs that are in there and doesn't seem to be the fuse.
View 8 RepliesFor some strange reason I'm getting water under the passenger side carpet, but it only seems to be happening after it rains. I don't know where it's coming from, but it seems to be right in front of the front passenger seat. I've only had the car for a month and would like to get this fixed..
View 4 RepliesI have a small single car garage, and all the vehicles that I have parked in here including an suv, I have never clipped my mirror. However, i recently did so with the Phaeton. Not sure what the proper name for the part is, but it is the clear plastic signal cover that has broken in half. the light still illuminates properly, but the cover is broken. What is the part that I need to order so that I can replace?
View 6 RepliesThe passenger side low beam failure alarm come on about 20 seconds after starting the car. It goes out after about 10 seconds; then alarms again after 10 more seconds; it goes out and then finally alarms after another 10 seconds and stays alarmed until the car is turned off.
Looking at the light from the front of the car, it goes on and off as described above. However when it is on the light is very bright. This suggests to me a loose connection or maybe a a loose fuse. That is, unless this is the way those bulbs go out. It seems strange because the bulbs in my other cars did not behave like this. They were either out or not, never in between.
The only thing that has been done to this car was that the tires were balanced about five days ago. The VW place did not do a good job at balancing the tires when they rotated them. What is going on in my car?
How to set the passenger side view mirror memory adjustment? I am unclear on a couple of things:
1) With the transmission in any position other than reverse, adjust the passenger side mirror as you like it.
2) Put the car in reverse, and adjust the same mirror to show you what you want to look at when you have the transmission in reverse.
3) Now press the appropriate seat memory buttons, to store that configuration as your 'driver preference', and the car will remember both settings.
Does #3 mean that you turn off the car leaving it in reverse? Leave it running - in reverse? And then you press "Set" and then the seat number button - and then "Set" again?

View 1 RepliesHow to replace the bulb in the passenger side vanity mirror, (the one that comes on when you open the mirror cover)? It seems difficult to get the lens off and I've had a look in the TOC, but I can't see anything.
View 7 RepliesEver since I've owned my Phaeton there's been what looks like a crack in the passenger side wing mirror, when you get up close however you can see the glass is fine and it's something within the mirror itself. The 'crack' is dark blue with an orange outline which makes me think it's possibly auto-dimming fluid which has leaked out. I've had a look online and can't see anything to confirm whether the passenger mirror is auto dimming as per the other two.

View 5 RepliesI have an O4 Phaeton here - the passenger wiper motor doesn't work.. After removing unit - verifying mechanical operation I've found that it's function just fine. However there is no power to connector. When wipers are running I supplied power with power probe and wiper operates just fine.
Cant find location and # for what I presume is a bad fuse. I looked for fuse diagrams all over and cant find one.
