VW PASSAT 2000, wing mirror problem: by captain_jack

Hi,
I have contacted you previously and no doubt you saved my loads of cash by letting me know how to change the dash light bulbs in my vw passat.
 
I have a bit of a problem, well a major one in this case.
I have a VW PASSAT 2000 (W reg). and all of a sudden the wing mirrors have got a problem. when i twist the little joystick on the driver side to the left wing mirror position i can adjust the wing mirror fine. but when i do the same for the right wing mirror, the left wing mirror also adjusts. i dont know why this is happening.
I opened the little joystick holder: removed it from its fitting in the car and cleaned it, checked it but the problems still there. the clips & pins are all fine. i assume its a fuse problem or something. and didnt know what else to do.
I would be very grateful if you could help me out with this problem. as the last time i needed help you sent me a site with pictures showing me what to do. very helpful. i hope you will not disapoint me this time either.
Sorry, didnt know how to get the posts up, last time i typed the problem in google and went to the page where i could type the problem. i saved your address but couldnt find the question posting page hense getting my problem to you this way. please do respond.
Thanx

It's not a "bug", it's a feature. In the US GLX model, the mirrors do that. They're supposed to, IIRC. It's a system by which they are coordinated so that when another driver adjusts the mirrors, they move in sync.
 
Check your owner's manual on setting them individually. I have a GLS model (my mirrors don't do anything fancy), so I can't help you any more than this.

We replaced the hardware and the windows would not operate properly all the windows stopped working the sunroof,radio,ABS what the beep is going on. Checked all the fuses with a FLUKE meter the next time I will visually check every fuse.

You'll need to post more info to get a reasonable response. What hardware did you replace?

I have an 06 Passat and as I reached the city limits, I was passing another vehicle and all of sudden my inside cabin goes humid and no cool air is coming out. I freaked a bit, rolled my windows down and went home. An hour or so later, I leave home to go to the store and to see if its working, I turn my a/c on and its working again, so I was like OK, it's working. When I leave for work the next morning, no cool air, and thus, I have gone for 3 days without a/c in my car and I live in south Mississippi and we're in the middle of a hot summer...YIKES!
 
My hubby took the car to two mechanics in town, in order to avoid taking it to the dealership. The first put it on the gauge and said that I was completely out of freon, then when he turned the vehicle on and had it connected to the gauge it read that I did have freon so he speculated that it could be an electrical problem. He then took it to a second location and they claimed that I had freon in it, but it seems that my compressor continues to run even after the car has been cut off. I'm not sure, but I think they also told him that the compressor continues to run while the car is on and never shuts off. I know my a/c still blows out air, but none of its cool.
 
How is this an electrical issue? What could be the possible problems? Has anyone else had this trouble?

Help. I have a 2001.5 VW GLS Passat. 3 days ago I could not get the trunk to open. Tried the release placed on the drivers side door, nothing. Now the car won't lock even when I try manually. This morning put the key in the ignition, nothing. All lights on dash go on, radio plays, head lights work. Any ideas???

I have a 1999 Passat GLX and I have the exact problems you have experienced. The trunk thing and the intermittent problem of the car not starting and then if we wait for minutes sometimes hours it starts and we have no problem. The first time it did this was two years ago, then a year ago and then 3 months ago and then twice this week. I am desperate for a solution and worry if I take it to the dealership it will be thousands of dollars IF they can figure it out. I can't believe someone else has both these identical problems. Would love to know the solution before I go the shop for repairs! Thanks,
