Touareg :: Through Air Suspension Adjustment Reduce Body Lean?


Mar 6, 2004

Seems like I read something on this site about being able to adjust the air suspension software. I'd like to see if I could reduce the body lean a bit more than the current "sport mode".

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Brake Pedal Height Adjustment - Any Way To Reduce An Inch Or So

Perhaps a strange question, but is there any way the pedal height can be decreased. On my 2010 LS 460 it seems to be higher than on my previous 2005 LS 430 to the extent that I lift my foot off the accelerator pedal and miss the top of the brake pedal. It's happened often enough that I've been wondering if it could be reduced an inch or so.

Ford Brakes/Suspension :: No Adjustment Point For EBrake?

I have a 1997 ford f250 heavy duty with the 7.3 diesel. i went to adjust the ebrake the other day and found no adjustment point. Every vehicle I have ever owned had a adjustment point but no where on this one? I am thinking of cutting the cable under the rig make 2 loops with cable ferrules on each ends of the cut and put one of those tighteners you would put on a barb wire fence just smaller...

Lexus LS 2007+ :: Alignment For Car Lowered With Air Suspension / Factory Air Camber Adjustment

I have been seeing and hearing conflicting information about alignments for cars lowered with air suspension. I was told there is nothing that can be done to adjust camber for tire wear on the cars with stock air. However, I have seen online that it can be adjusted with a smaller drop on the air. What is true and what isn't?

Ford Brakes/Suspension :: 1993 F250 - Parking Brake Adjustment?

So it looks like there is no adjustment on the Parking Brake on this ride other than adjusting the shoes up. As far as I can see my Parking Brake should work like a champ, but it won't hold on much of a hill. I have new shoes, new drums and it is adjusted up so I can hear them drag. I can actually feel it getting tight then looser as you spin the wheel, like one of the new drums is slightly out of round, so I don't think I could go much tighter. Is it possible one or more of the cables is stretched? I did see the shoes spread when I had the drums off and I stepped on the Park Brake, so I know things are working at least that much.

Lexus GX 2010+ :: 2006 GX470 - Automatic Rear Suspension Height Adjustment

I have a 2006 GX470. It has some sort of automatic rear suspension height adjustment. When it is malfunctioning the rear of the car is jacked up like I have pimped it out. I use the height adjustment button but when I resume driving the car moves back into the neutral position which is not neutral at all it is jacked to the top. I had the sensors replaced once for $1,000 but within a year it was doing the same thing.

Now the light flashes to lower the back end but the back end doesn't move. I am stuck in the jacked up mode.

Lexus ES 2013+ :: ES300H Suspension Or Shocks Adjustment To Make Ride Softer

I recently traded in my old 95 ES 300 for a 2013 ES 300H. I prefer the ride quality of the older model. I realize that many people prefer the new ride quality, but I don't. I have Michelin tires, and I have reduced the pressure to about 29 PSI, which worked, but I'd like to soften the ride more. Is it possible to adjust the suspension or shocks to make the ride softer?

Audi - A4 :: 1997 - Rear Suspension Bushings Crunching Thumping Sounds When Body Torques Over Irregular Surfaces?

My rear bushings on my 1997, A4 Audi, make a crunching thumping sounds when the body torques over irregular surfaces. My Audi mechanic says that it is the bushings. Replacing the A frames and bushings will cost more than half the car's worth. I belief that dust got into the bushings when I went on dirt roads in Death Valley or they are just worn. When I blast the bushings with water the noise disappears or dampens for a while. Car has 186,000 miles.To keep the noise down, can I add graphite or some other material to the bushings?

Touareg :: Bi-Xenon Are Too Low - Adjustment?

My bi-xenons are too low as delivered and I need to move them up. I've spent several hours reading through the numerous posts here regarding this, but they seem to be split as to whether this should be done manually with the screws under the hood, or electronically with the VAG-COM.

I have a VAG-COM, and where to find a setting for this given that the 55 module isn't active on the Touareg. I messed with the screws, and while that did raise the headlights, I'm afraid I might be compromising the auto-leveling feature of the xenons...

Touareg :: 2005 - Windshield Wiper Arm Adjustment

[IMG] ....

I have an 05 Touareg and the passenger side windshield wiper is not wiping a small section of the screen, approximately behind the rear view mirror. It's not a problem with the blade (I replaced those) so I suspect the wiper arm needs adjustment. Raising the car's bonnet reveals the wiper arm attachment (see picture) but there's a plastic cover that it looks like I need to remove. Usually I use brute force and break things like this. How to

(1) remove the plastic cover and
(2) adjust the wiper arm

Touareg :: 2005 - Automatic Seat Adjustment For Entry / Exit

I just bought a 2005 Touareg. When I have the auto seat adjustment for entry/exit feature turned on and I turn off the ignition in my Touareg, the seat moves WAY back and WAY down. Is there a way to adjust the amount that the seat moves? I already know how to turn the feature off, but I want to leave it on -- I just want it to not move back so much.

Touareg :: Driver Side Door Latch Alignment / Adjustment?

Door on the T-reg that is hard to get latched completely? I'm finding a need to reopen/slam the driver's door on a regular basis. Is this something the dealer can "adjust" for me? What would it involve? I don't think the other three doors need to be slammed anywhere near as hard.

Touareg :: Air Suspension Breaks Down While Going 65 Mph

Today my v-10's front air suspension broke? while driving at 65 on a freeway i heard a metal clunk like the sound of a manhole cover slightly ajar being run over, but no impact on the wheel, just this sound , i do not believe i hit anything it just happened out of the blue. after another 5 minutes or so i noticed my front end seemed different, and then i got a priority one red triangle message to STOP with a message about wheels or brake or something. i pulled over and saw that the front end was lower than I've ever seen it. i made it to a dealer a couple of miles later and the front end was as low as it could go with the rear up at the normal height. no leakage no visible damage its just screwed up. I've got 21,000 miles on it and i do drive a little aggressive.

Touareg :: Rear Suspension Seems Really Stiff

Can't say I noticed it on the test drive but when we went to Costco last weekend and drove slowly over the speed bumps it seemed like the rear suspension had no give in it at all. Also noticed it whilst out driving tonight.

Touareg :: Air Suspension Adjusting Up And Down At Red Lights

When I have it set to comfort, it will adjust up and down at just about every other redlight. Also when I get out sometimes the front will go down. Not leaking or anything there is a electro-mecanical type noise heard and both sides of the front go down the same amount. Is this normal?

Touareg :: Air Suspension Failure At 70K Miles?

Was driving on some segmented highway concrete that send my front end into quite a thrashing. Slowed down quite a bit and it settle down some but nothing like that before. Pain attention to ride but it feels OK, corners, etc. BUT, over the past few weeks, I've noticed that it has become quite sensitive to sharp transitions (BOTS dots a.k.a. line markers, driveways, etc. so I have a suspicion that one or more of the air spring assemblys has possibly failed or a leak.

It's like the equivalent of a worn out strut. The car hold up. Raises and lowers, etc. But I can't push down on the car to test the response of the suspension like a standard strut car. What is the expected life of the air suspension? And cost to replace pair or all four. Not looking forward to the possible expenses.

Touareg :: 2004 - Driving With A Failed Air Suspension?

Bit of sticky problem - it looks like the air suspension system has failed on my 2004 T-Reg. The back-end is dragging - down to aprox 1 foot off pavement and there is no air in the compressor bottle. The problem is that the next dealer is about 75 miles and bit of a ferry ride away. The ride is bouncy and harsh - but otherwise stable.
