#283 of 291 Sun roof pops open 2006 VW Passat by viejachula Aug 22, 2009 (3:47 am)
Ok, my fuses are back to normal, but over the last two months, since I got my car back, I have been experiencing my sun roof popping halfway up unexpectedly, while the knob is in the closed position, and I'm curious if anybody else has this problem?   I've tried to keep a record of when it happens (date/milege/time of day, where I'm driving, road type -smooth/bumpy, etc, if my A/C is on, and outside temp displayed) to see if I can see a pattern. I'm seeing it's usually on the freeway, no bumpy roads, though. And I seem to always have my A/C on in this hot Texas weather, and almost always, the temp is over 100 degrees.   It's happened about 6-7 times now. But you know, if I take it in, the dealer has to be able to duplicate the problem, in order for them to fix it and have it covered under warranty. It's got only 48k miles, so it's still under warranty. But, I need to see it happening more frequently, or get some ideas from somebody who had this problem, and resolved it, so I know where to look for the problem.   Thanks for any suggestions! Even for the quirky problems, I still love my elegant, black Passat, with the Turbo and all the accessories!

Replying to: hedgesville (Aug 16, 2009 2:42 am) You might call the dealer and inquire if there is a supplemental manual for your model of car. That's what happened when I tried to find a particular fuse, and the book didn't show it in the right place...   But, if your car is still pretty new to you, you may not have noticed on the button, you have a little dot towards the top and you have to turn the knob towards the dot for it to turn the heat on. I didn't know that until after I had the car for about a month! Just be sure to turn it off afterwards, because it does use your fuel if it's left on.   Happy hunting!
#285 of 291 03 Passat Horn works intermittently, also the... by glx4mo Sep 01, 2009 (11:58 am)
I've read many post regarding this issue with the homelink & fuse 5. My fuse tests good. I also replaced the fuse just in case & the same thing. All the functions on the steering wheel (horn, cruise & radio controls) work intermittently (mostly not). Only 40K on car. I'd like to try disconnecting the homelink, but was unsure how to go about it. Message #198 sounded like my answer as we both have 03 models, but my visor must be different? I can't find a small disc to remove. It would have to be on the left side. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Replies to this message: glx4mo (Sep 08, 2009 1:43 pm)

Replying to: glx4mo (Sep 01, 2009 11:58 am) I was able to remove the visor & disconnect the homelink. This still did not solve my problem with the horn working intermittently. Also, the cruise controls & radio controls all on the steering wheel only work when they feel like it. Most likely, related to temperature, humidity etc. Perhaps there is a short in the steering wheel. Anyone else have this type of problem? Please advise & thanks!

#289 of 291 Re: Comfort Control Module Blues? [pbeeson] by golfcartguy Oct 16, 2009 (2:33 pm)
Replying to: pbeeson (Feb 26, 2008 5:50 am) I have the same exact symptoms as 'Pbeeson'. Wondering what the solution was? I too installed a junkyard ccm, (from a wrecked car), and it starts, runs and drives, yet no power windows, locks, sunroof, truck, etc. Anyone? Need help, at wits end with this.
#290 of 291 Re: bad ccm? [pbeeson] by golfcartguy Oct 16, 2009 (2:34 pm)
Replying to: pbeeson (Feb 22, 2008 9:13 am) I have the exact same problem. No windows, locks, etc, just a clicking noise in the door when you try to open. Any help would be appreciated.
#291 of 291 Generator light on and temp gauge not working by fleased Nov 03, 2009 (6:28 pm)
The generator light on my 2003 Passat came on a week ago, but seemed to be driving perfectly well. The temp gauge doesn't move at all anymore, but I'm not sure how long it's been that way (I'm so observant!). I'm wondering if they could be connected or just a coincidence. Could a coolant temp sensor failure cause the generator light to come on?
