Touareg :: RPMs Dip And A Shudder Is Felt Through The Car


Jul 16, 2004

I was sitting in my car waiting for someone, and noticed that whenever I pull the window button(s) to pull a window up (esp if the window is already up), the RPMs dip and a shudder is felt through the car. What's up with that!? I tried it about a zillion times: pull, dip, shudder.

Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: 2011 XLT Shudder At 5 Kph And Felt As The Truck Accelerates

I purchased a 2011 F150 XLT 4X4 Super Crew in early January, since then I have had it into the dealership many times to correct an annoying shudder that can be seen (looking at the steering wheel) and felt as the truck accelerates. The shudder happens around 5 kph or 3 mph and then quickly disappears as you accelerate.
This is extremely annoying in stop and go traffic and is more readily felt if driving up hill. The dealer tried shims in the differential, Installed a new rear drive shaft, U joints and the last attempt was a complete rear end all to no avail.

Ford Wiring/Electrical :: 1995 F150 - Chirp And Shudder At Low RPMs / Squeal And Vibrate At Higher RPMs

Ok, I have a 95 F150 5.0. It's sat for 6 months with the engine taken apart. I just finished putting everything back together with a new alternator. Well, I pulled a bone-head move and forgot to connect the harness when I fired the truck up. Other than not charging though, it ran fine. When I connected the harness, it began to chirp and shudder at low RPMs and squeal and vibrate at higher RPMs and it over heated VERY QUICKLY.

So hot the case was too hot to touch and the pulley smoked the belt. The engine didn't even have time to get up to operating temperature. I've had the alternator replaced twice, and this last one tested good putting out 14.5 volts. The work I did on the engine was to replace the valve springs, install a direct drive timing gear, replace a spun harmonic balancer, bypass the smog pump because it froze up, new distributor, a new ECU and O2 sensor.

Touareg :: Ride Felt Hard On Bumpy Roads

Went to sport mode again today (after TSBs) and the ride felt hard on bumpy roads, really stiff. I want to upgrade to 18's or 19's to get a better feel of the road in the summer, just want to get some input from those that have had the TSBs performed and upgrade to larger wheels as well.

Ford - Bronco :: 1989 - Shudder And Power Loss For A Second Or Two About 500 RPMs

When my 1989 Bronco II has about a quarter tank of gas left, it begins to "shudder" and lose about 500 rpms while I've got my foot on the gas. It will shudder and lose power for a second or two, then run fine for a minute or so, then do the shuddering stuff again. It'll do this all the way to the gas station. But with the tank full (or even half full) the shuddering stuff is gone as I drive out the gas station.

Elantra HD (2006-10) :: 2008 - Engine Shudder / Vibration Whenever RPMs Are Between 1000 And1500

I drive a 2008 Elantra automatic,and have a constant engine shudder/vibration whenever the rpms are between 1000 and1500. The engine shudder stops as soon as I accelerate above 1500 rpms,or take my foot off the gas completely.

The dealer recommended cleaning of the fuel injector system,not sure if thats the course to take.I do know my model has had fuel pump issues,but the dealer has told me all recalls on the car have been processed.

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Shudder When Engine Lugged Down To 1000 - 1100 RPMs On A Hill

I purchased my 2013 F350 PSD July of 2014 and immediately noticed "the shudder" when the engine was lugged down to 1000-1100 rpms on a hill. Sounding like somewhere around the turbo belching air too. At first I was startled but learned to manually downshift to higher rpms and it will stop. Once or twice I tried accelerating out of it and it shuddered as bad as the poster who said it made the steering shudder too.

My truck has 16,000 miles and I never let the rpms drop now. So I figure I have a real problem I'm not imaging. What should I tell my dealer is the TSB or remedy ?

Touareg :: Shudder / Rumble Just Before A Stop

Whenever I stop my T-Reg (like at a light, etc.) I feel a rumble and can see the RPMs take a quick dip below where the car normally idles (this happens just before the car has fully stopped). Pretty much I feel the rumble for about second and at the same time can see the RPMS rapidly dip. When the car has made its full stop the RPMs come back up and the car idles normally. Sometimes the dip is more drastic than others, but you can definitely feel a rumble or shudder. It almost feels like the rumble associated with a car getting ready to stall; except it never stalls. What is causing this?

Touareg :: 2006 - Transmission Shudder Twice While Turning Right?

I have a 2006 V-10 TDI with 43k miles on it. Last week I was turning right onto a busy street so I got on the gas hard and all of a sudden it sounds like my transmission was bouncing/shuddering inside the tunnel. It has since happened twice since then, both times while turning right and on the gas hard. I always like to find out as much information as I can about a problem before I take it to my local dealer as the only V-10 they have ever seen is mine and I didn't buy it from them.

Touareg :: Steering Shudder On Full Lock?

After 12,000 kms of trouble free motoring on my replacement Treg (first one a lemon) it seems to have developed an unusual problem. The best I can describe this prob is that when I go into almost full turning lock (obviously at snail pace speed) the car shudders quite noticeably. The problem occurs intermittently however as of late at least on 50% of occasions. Seems to be worse after reversing uphill a short distance.

Touareg :: V10 Turbo Wouldn't Hold Speed Up Hills And Engine Had Definite Shudder

The beast slowed to a crawl on the interstate saturday morning for my son's soccer games... wouldn't hold speed up hills and engine had definite shudder at all speeds... fortunately, the dealer is in the city he was playing in adn the service dept is open on saturday mornings, so I could drop it off... they were exceptional about getting a loaner (new jetta tdi wagon)... they called today to report that one of the turbos was ruined... VW says they have to replace both to complete repair... tracked down parts in germany and will take about a week to arrive, then a day or so to repair. Had problems with the v10's turbos? I'm at about 12K miles... this is my second v10 and it's kinda spooky to have this kind of problem...

Touareg :: Tranny Shifts At Low RPMs, Not Much Acceleration

I have a V6. When I just want to slowly get going I very slowly depress the pedal and hold, or leave off when speed is reached. Tranny shifts at low rpms, not much acceleration. I have completely avoided kickdowns, which exhibit a bit of a lag. When I really need to get going quickly off the line I steadily press the pedal more quickly than for a slow start. The effect is quite remarkable; tranny holds gears until about 4,000 or 5,000 rpm, and the car really moves. When I need to accelerate and I'm already moving I always shift into sport or I use the TIP.

Touareg :: Engine Stalls At Random Usually Happens At Low RPMs

I got my Touareg 2 months ago, and has been nothing but trouble. I also own a 1997 E39 BMW 528i, and I have never had so much problems with it in 8 years as with the VW in 2 months. Just plain terrible. There is now a strange problem, and it looks like the local service could not localise it properly.

My engine stalls at random. It usually happens at low RPMs, at a red light stop, etc. The engine usually goes bananas, the revs going up and down, and it looks like its choking. Sometimes switching to N and then pressing the revs up a few times works, but not always.

Sometimes the EPC and the triangle (exclamation mark) lights come up, but not always. It happened to me, that the engine just plain stopped.
It even happened to me when I was going slow down the hill in front of my house!!!

Can you imagine, initially I was firing up the engine with the button, having the key in my pocket.. And when the engine stalled, I lost all the servos, and the steering wheel just LOCKED!!!

I mean this is really serious. Since this happened twice, I am always using the key in its place... The local service just changed some electronics which supposedly monitor the engine RPM. It did not work...

Touareg :: When Floored The Engine Is Ticking At Higher Rpms

Experienced a ticking noise when at WOT with the 4.2 V8 engine? When cruising around the engine sounds fine, but when floored the engine (i believe) is ticking at higher rpms. Hard to believe its the engine, only 24k miles on it, with regularly changed oil. Sounds like either detonation or valve interference.

Touareg :: 2004 VW - Check Engine Light Is On / Running Rough At Low RPMs

I have a 2004 VW Touareg with 116K miles. Yesterday the check engine light came on and she is running very rough at low RPMs. The manual tells me that there is either a problem with the exahust manifold or an O2 sensor is bad. It feels as if she is struggling for air. When you start the vehicle the check engine light flashes then stays on in the cluster. What can I expect when I take it in to the dealership? Is there anything I can check before I take it in?

Gti - Volkswagen :: 2003 - Shudder While Shifting To 3rd Gear - Smaller Shudder Shifting To 4th

I had recently purchased a 2003 golf gti AUTOMATIC (with optional shifter) with a 1.8 turbo 4 cylinder engine. The vehicle has 139,000 miles on it. Before purchasing, I had a mechanic come out and look at the vehicle for a pre-purchase inspection, and ran the code P0303 (cylinder 3 misfire) which without test driving, told me that is what caused the shift shudder I noticed when I had test driven it a previous day. He told me the coil packs were in good condition by looking at the top of them, and told me if I replace the spark plugs, the issue should go away.

I feel it is important to mention that he had also run codes on the transmission and nothing came up. Taking it home, this morning I had replaced the spark plugs and driven it for about an hour both regularly and aggressively to test it. The problem is still there, and I was really hoping that there is a solution to this problem, because everything else on the car is beautiful, while being my dream car, I just want it to work as well as I know it can. To be more descriptive, when shifting to 3rd the whole car feels basically like it is tripping over itself before successfully shifting.

Camry 2012+ :: Bars Felt Through Seat Cushion?

Lately I've really been noticing these bars and sharp points being able to be felt through the seat cushion on the driver's seat. I had the dealership replace the seat cushion recently cos it was already deformed (< 2 years), and now I feel several bars through the cushion (along the seams in the seat cover). The bars were able to be felt before they replaced the cushion; I thought maybe replacing the cushion would fix this problem somehow. No luck.

To be specific, I feel these bars when sitting on the seat normally. It's getting annoying.

Passenger seat feels fine. I would be surprised if this is normal for the driver's seat, if so, *bad* seat design.

I feel an entire seat replacement is warranted perhaps. Car is still under warranty (3 years / 36K).
