Touareg :: 2005 - Brake Pad A Bit Squeaky After Car Warms Up - Replacement?


Nov 4, 2007

I have a 2005 V8 with 15k miles. I have 18" wheels. I'm thinking of replacing the factory brake pads soon. The factory pads are a bit squeaky, especially on warm days after the car warms up. I find this annoying. I do not want to replace pads with the same product. So I have two question: What brand came on the car? and what pads can you all recommend?

The reason I think its the belt it does not squeak when its really cold out but once it warms up a little its back so I am thinking when it gets warm it stretches out a little and when its cold it shrinks up or am I just crazy..

Touareg :: 2005 - Brake Pedal Squeaks

The wife's had her 05 for about two weeks now, and while riding in it the other day, I noticed that the brake pedal now squeaks like a SOB. I know it's a simple fix.

Also, is there any way to VAG the rear hatch, so you don't have to constantly use the door switch or fob to unlock the hatch, even when the doors are unlocked? And, is the any way to change the brightness of the overhead compass screen? At night, unless I lean over, I can't read it from the driver's seat. Those are my only rants thus far, which are nearly nonexistent. PS - got the hitch put on and pulled for the first time last weekend. Nothing but good things to say.

Touareg :: 2005 VW - Yellow Brake Warning Light Is On

My yellow (circle with line on each side) warning light for brakes is on in my 2005 VW Touareg. Only 9 months ago I replaced the front pads, rotors and sensors. When I put the car in drive and start to move the warning light flashes 'check front brake pads'. Is it possible it's something simple like a sensor? Is there a way for me to check that? Side note: I replaced the rear brake pads and rotors only 5,000 miles before that. I just want to see if it could be something simple before I take it in to be checked out and told it's something more sinister. I checked the level of brake fluid and it is full.

Touareg :: Car Pulling To The Right And Brakes Are Squeaky

I'd like to write them and open a dialogue about my minor problems before I see the dealer for my 5,000 service. Specifically, I have already complained to the dealer twice about the car pulling to the right and the squeaky brakes. While I know these are minor issues now, I would rather have a VW approved plan of action in hand before the dealer tells me there is nothing they can do about my problems. I realize this may be a futile effort but I like to document things.

Touareg :: Squeaky Sound Coming From Passenger Footwell Area

I'm hearing something that sounds like a squeaky hamster wheel sound from the front passenger footwell area. It often sounds like there's a trickling sound as well. What's wrong - is this normal? (Its fairly loud at times). It seems to correlate with cold weather.

2005 Impala Heat Gauge Not Resetting Until Car Warms Up

I have an 05 Impala. When I turn the car off, the heat gauge stays where it is. When I start it up again, it stays there until the car warms up and then goes up from where it was. I have found that by turning the key off and on quickly several times it goes down each time to bottom. What can cause the gauge to stick like that?

Prius (2004-09) :: 2005 - AC Works Until Engine Warms Up?

I have a 2005 Toyota Prius and the AC seems to work when the car is not warmed up. After about 5 to 10 minutes of driving the vehicle it does not seem to want to blow cold air. Obviously it works better in the morning then the afternoon but the AC seems to work intermittently. This may be electrical problem?

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: 2005 Audio Sound Comes On After The Heater Warms Up

The audio system sound in my 2005 GX470 suddenly quit working properly.

When first starting the car, I have no sound from any of the system sources (am/fm radio; tape; cd player). After the heater warms up the car, usually about 5-6 minutes, the sound comes on and all sources work fine.

Tiguan :: 2012 - Squeaky Brake Noise

My '12 Tig SEL is approximately 6 months old and I've started to notice some squeaky brake noises this week. Just under 10k miles at this point, the vast majority of those just regular commuting to/from work. No rally racing antics on my end, I swear. We have been in the midst of a killer heatwave on the East Coast though...I wonder if the heat could be a partial culprit?

Honda - Accord :: 2005 - Squeaky / Grinding Brakes

My 2005 Honda Accord (approx 48,000 miles) has had squeaky/grinding brakes for the last few months. The brakes make a horrible grinding noise for the first few times that I brake each time that I drive it, and then as the car warms up the noise seems to go away. It also shakes a little bit when it's making the grinding noise - not a ton, but enough that I think there must be something wrong. It's worse (during those first few brakings) if I brake hard, but even if I'm really gently applying the brake it makes the same unsettling noise. The squeaking noise doesn't go away ever, but I don't think it's as serious as the grinding noise (but I could be wrong - that's why I'm here!).

I took it to a brake specialty place in November or December and they couldn't find anything wrong with it. Other than regular oil changes and tire rotations, the car hasn't had any repairs.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2005 - Using Wheel Bearing Grease On Squeaky Door?

2005 Jetta. My passenger side door emits the most high pitched, eye-gougingly disturbing noise when opening. I don't have any wd40 handy, would it be okay to just spread dome Mag1 wheel bearing grease over the hinge? Might be a stupid question, but that won't damage anything right?

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: 2005 - Squeaky Door - Adjustment?

My 05 has an incredibly annoying door squeak that is right behind my ear on the drivers door. If I pull in on the door handle just a little it stops. I tried to adjust the door to close a little quieter, but I don't seem to have any adjustment on the latch in the door or on the door pillar. Am I missing something? The hinges are tight so the door is not really moving up and down that much, but It is making me crazy.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: GS430 - ABS And Brake Warning Lamp Coming On After Brake Pad Replacement

2006 GS430 110K miles. Did Front brake pad change by myself. Now ABS , brake warning lamps come on.

Bring it to Lexus dealer. They found 3 code on it. C1203, C1336, C1345

After performed the Zero Point Calibration, the DTC C1345 remains.

I felt so bad. They want to charged me another $185 in order to find out the problem after I have paid $130. But i am out of pocket. So drive car back to home. I don't think i did anything wrong while changing brake pad. Just remove the caliper and push the piston back.

Detail of the Code:

C1203 engine control system communication fault
C1336 zero point calibration Yaw rate sensor undone
C1345 Linear valve offset not learned.
