#1634 of 1677 Phaeton Owners Club? advice on problems? by markhalpern Apr 20, 2008 (11:29 am)
Colleagues,      I'm a new owner of a 2004 Phaeton, eager to trade information with other owners. Is there an Owners Club? And can anyone give me any advice about fixing a temperamental Tire Pressure Monitor System; mine gives me frequent false reports of a flat tire, and the dealer -- VW of Oakland -- has failed in three attempts to fix it.                         Mark Replies to this message: wimpy4 (Apr 20, 2008 2:32 pm) markhalpern (Apr 20, 2008 3:19 pm) wimpy4 (Apr 25, 2008 8:47 pm) mtmsimple (Jul 31, 2008 1:16 am)

Replying to: markhalpern (Apr 20, 2008 11:29 am) Mark, I'm in San Diego and have had my 2004 for twenty months. Great car and I too have started looking for an owner's club. I also had a problem with the tire sensors early on which was fixed in Santa Monica and hasn't been a problem until last month. First try in San Diego to fix didn't take. I think I would try another certified tech - I may go back to Santa Monica. Good Luck! Joe Replies to this message: markhalpern (Apr 20, 2008 3:19 pm) wimpy4 (Apr 25, 2008 8:47 pm)

Replying to: wimpy4 (Apr 20, 2008 2:32 pm) Joe,      Thanks for the reply. Any idea what your tech in Santa Monica did to fix the problem, even temporarily? If you return to him to have it fixed again, please get him to explain what he's doing, and publish the results here.      And why don't we use this forum to see how many Phaeton owners might want to join an owners club -- start collecting names, and see if there are enough of us to make a quorum?              Mark Replies to this message: wimpy4 (Apr 25, 2008 8:47 pm)
#1637 of 1677 New 2004 Phaeton Owner Boston by bobbusbkr Apr 24, 2008 (2:21 pm)
Hello all, I'm trying to locate Phaeton Owners in MA, NH & ME to join or start a club. I purchased my 2004 Phaeton V8 in August of 2007. I traveled from Boston to Wisconsin to purchase it just coming off lease with 19,100 mi. It was like new & remains so. I couldn't be happier with a vehicle. ZERO problems and when taken to Wellesley, MA VW for maintenance they treat me like royalty! I had the car certified by VW and bought the 100K mi extended warranty. The whole package cost $40,000. This is definitely the best automotive deal I've had in 46 years of driving. I'm in the process of adding an OEM backup camera that will play through my Nav System. I'll report on it after the install. Replies to this message: ablenav (Apr 24, 2008 3:59 pm) tedstock (Jun 09, 2008 10:29 am) tedstock (Jun 09, 2008 10:30 am)

Replying to: bobbusbkr (Apr 24, 2008 2:21 pm) Welcome to the club and let us know about the OEM backup camera as I have interest to it add it as well. And does anyone have experience with adding the automatic trunk and upgraded sound system? Thank in advance.

Replying to: markhalpern (Apr 20, 2008 3:19 pm) Hi Mark, I couldn't get away to Santa Monica so took it back in to San Diego. Dash was showing Tire pressure, Flat tire and Spare tire at various times. Turned out to be low pressure in the spare. There were no faults stored in the system. So, for what that is worth. I will let you know how this holds up. Joe

where can I purchase a mesh grille for the phaeton?
#1643 of 1677 Phaeton Nav Updates by rv65 May 09, 2008 (11:14 pm)
BMW CD maps do work on the Phaeton. All you need are the older cd version. I recommend getting the 2003 5 series DVD. You can get them at www.navteq.com/. They are 200 USD for the whole set or 129.99 for each CD depending on your region.
