Tiguan :: Voice Coming From The Dash Giving A Warning
Dec 14, 2010
A few weeks ago my wife drove the Tiguan but it was low on gas. The yellow light was already lit but there was enough to drive a few more kilometers. The display also gives you an estimate, so nothing to worry about.
When she came home, she claimed that she heard a voice coming from the dash giving a warning. Something like:please fill gas. I said to her, no way you're mistaking. You probably saw the warning in the display telling you to get gas and that there are just 20 kms to drive untill empty. But she was absolutely sure about it, there was a warningvoice, not just the text in the display. Since then, I tried to create the same situation by driving the Tig untill the last drop of gas but the car kept silent.

I picked up a 2012 SEL w/ RNS-510 today and the steering wheel voice button doesn't work. I checked it with vcds and its coded for voice command to work. Did the 2012's cone with a harness for voice command or do I need to add the wires to the harness? My rns-510 is a version F and the service records show that the original was replaced under warranty. It's running software 3690 but I'm installing 4366 in the morning. Does 3690 disable voice command? I know it works with 4366. I'd mess with it tonight, but I drove 500 miles each way to get it so I'm ready for bed.
When I press the star button on the rns-510 the annoying voice says, "route guidance is not available".

Has rattle that sounds like it is coming from the centre of the dash? It sounds like a piece of tin sheet metal is rattling faintly. I wouldn't think a fuel line rattle would sounds like that, but maybe I am incorrect? Putting pressure on the dash with your hand doesn't seem to make it stop.
We also get the creek in the l/h side that I had assumed prior that it was from the door seal when the body flexes.

On my commute to work this morning my dash lit up wth warning lights for the ABS and VSC, shortly after I noticed that the brakes were pulsating.
I was in slow traffic becuase of a wreck on the interstate and each time you touched the pedal enough to apply more than regenerative breaking, they would pulsate to the point of shaking the car (at under 7 miles an hour). The car acted as if the system was alternating between applying stopping force and not, several times per second.

Yesterday I heard a voice warning in my 2011 Prius. It said in effect "your battery is low". Glancing at the display my hybrid battery icon was two dots from the top, so I assume it meant the 12 volt battery. Not having a voltmeter, is there any way to check the health of my 12 volt which only has 33k miles on it.

The right hand A/C vent on the driver's side dash is suddenly giving me no air at all. The other 3 in front blow cool air just fine. How to check this out? (I did just check out the cabin filter in case it had something to do with a block there). I don't know where to look. This is a new problem for my 2007 Prius.
The A/C for the rear passengers has always been very weak. Do others find this to be true also? I keep thinking that extending the air outlets under the seats somehow might work.

The warning light on the dash of my '96 ranger 4.0, auto with 233k miles started coming on. The only thing I have done recently was to replace my battery. Just trying to figure it out.

On my 2006 6.0 the water in fuel warning kept coming on the dash. After going draining a few times and a few tanks later I knew something wasn't right so I bought a new sensor. When I pulled the old sensor out, it was full of gunk that was like a white jelly. I probably could have just cleaned the old sensor but I put the new one in anyway. My issue went away for a few months when the WIF alert came back. I pulled the sensor out again and sure enough it was gummed up. I've decided to pull that little panel door off and clean the inside. I have a few questions:
1) Can that oring be purchased separatly?
2) Can I just reuse my oring if it still looks good?

My mom called today, frantic, telling me her Tig died twice in less than ten minutes and she couldn't get it restarted. The first time the Tig died, it happened without warning. The engine cut out completely, but still had electrical power. When the engine died, the only lights on the dash were the CEL, EPC, and generator lights (all of which normally remain on with the key in the "on" position without the engine running). She was able to restart the car immediately without issue and started driving again. Within two minutes, the Tig died again, but this time lost all power, including electrical, without warning. When she tried to restart the car again, there was no power whatsoever. Volkswagen is towing the car now to a dealership.
I have a few questions for the community, though. First, the car is a 2009 (purchased in 2008) and it has just over 34K miles on it. It's an SE non-4motion. I just got off the phone with VW and they're covering the tow, but the bumper-to-bumper warranty is expired by one month. What are the chances VW will diagnose and repair the vehicle under goodwill? This is our fourth VW we've owned since 2005 and one of two VWs we currently own. ALL of our cars have only gone to VW for service.
Second, what could be causing this issue? It seems pretty logical to me that it's strictly an electrical issue, but past that. The car won't get to the dealer in time for diagnosis today, but I'll know something midday Monday.

I have the 2011 Tiguan SE FWD. It happened 3 times so far- when I turned on the car BEFORE I started the engine, there was a oil pressure warning on the MFI display, something like "Oil pressure low, check owners manual". As soon as I started the engine, the warning went away. I changed my oil all on schedule.

I bought a 2010 Tiguan in April and have loved it, except for an annoying rattle in the dash. I took it to the dealer a few weeks ago and they couldn't find it. Took it back, they had it for two weeks - still couldn't find it, and ended up calling in Volkswagen engineering. Apparently, I have one of six cars that has this problem, VW is trying to find a fix. I picked up my car on Friday and realized that the bluetooth wasn't working and they'd put scratches on my dash. There were also grease marks on part of the plastic, and my gas light was on. Took it back yesterday, they fixed the bluetooth and put a small hole in my headliner in the process. I don't know what to do, the dealer said they would try to patch it, but it's right up front where I'll have to look at it all the time. I really want them to replace it, but at this point I'm worried what else they'll screw up.

Notice this:
Why can you not have someone in the back seat directly behind the passenger seat if the passenger seat is folded down? Hell, it even says no one can be in the back-middle-seat either! Kind of ridiculous, don't you think? What is the specific reason?

So two weeks ago the Tiggy threw and EPC light while I was up in the mountains, twice. I took it in last Wednesday for service and according to my service tech, the parts needed for the throttle assembly have to be ordered...and not only that, but the part is back ordered.

The ESP light to come on while cruising on dry pavement and then the burnt bulb light to come on. They both stayed on until the engine is restarted. I had 3 incidents with the same behavior so far in a month and they stayed on for the duration of the trip.

Wife picked up this basic model for my daily driving to work. It does not have MFD or compass but a simple display menu. Recently I encounter some trouble on tire pressure and TPMS triggered. I was told to reset it by myself. Unfortunately, mine is basic S model and there is no MFD or reset button in glove box. Manual said using MFD. Any way to reset without going to dealership on Tiguan S model?

Recently the low windshield washer warning light came up on my dash. I rarely use it so found it weird. As I thought it was pretty full already. The warning only show up when its around 4 degree Celsius and doesn't show up when its around 10 degree.

I've installed six LED bulbs in the rear of my 2011 Tiguan (brake and running) and now the "bulb out" warning light comes on intermittently.
I don't need to solve this via resistors, new relay, etc. I just want to disable the warning light. Do this can be done via VAG-COM?

Power's out due to the storm here in New England, so I couldn't scan it yet. My wife's 4-Motion automatic '09 Tiguan has a CEL that started yesterday. Also, intermittently, all of the gears in the display are highlighted as though they have all been selected (P/R/D/S etc). I drove it this morning and it seemed to drive OK, but I don't drive it that often so I couldn't tell if it was shifting differently.

I recently had the rear pads replaced on my 2010 Tig after about 39k miles by my local mechanic (won't do that again). Not soon after I received the warning light that indicated a parking brake error but had no issue using the brake. Took it to the dealer for the 40k service and they checked the brake. Couldn't find anything wrong with it after diagnostics but they did reset it. Service Mgr said I may get the error again and they would have to look into it further (possibly the switch??). Received the error again today.
