Moin! After a quiet time, the thick one is reported with 2 errors: P1423 – secondary air system Bank 1 Throughput below small limit static P1411 – secondary air system Bank 2 Throughput below small limit static MKL is on, AU has also failed, Lambda is too high. Furthermore, the V8 is now right at the ballering and bullying that it is almost embarrassing for me to drive through the cages. At 100kmh I was able to drive earlier whisper, but now the engine is buzzing through and through. Also the consumption has become significantly higher. Someone an idea? The vacuum cans at the front of the engine are permanently pressed in, is that so? Somewhere the car has to pull false air .. Best regards Don

Hello, the GP3 is supposed to need 0.5 liters less than the GP2 diesel. I wanted to check that out. I brought my GP2 yesterday to Fellbach to the friendly because of a sounding noise. There, of course, I got a GP3 as a rental car and drove the same route back again. (mainly highway and expressway). My P needed 9.6 liters according to BC of the GP3 only 8.3 ! Sure that was once only 70 km, but I paid attention to very similar conditions (Both cars were warm, height differences of the destinations were irrelevant, traffic conditions and speed are the same…) Now I want to ask in the round whether there is also the experience elsewhere that the newer diesel may have even greater advantages in terms of consumption than from the factory specifications.

Now I was only just with Zottel because of something else, since following error had occurred once:008194 – Particle Filter Bank 1 P2002 – 002 – Malfunction – Sporadic Since the entry was sporadic, I should ignore it. Completely ok. As it is always so, only 4 days later and the error hardens, and this in combination with this error:001138 – Pressure sensor 1 for exhaust gas (G450) P0472 – 000 – Short circuit after mass – Sporadic This error is now also immediately after the solution This could be a follow-up error?008194 – Particle filter bank 1 P2002 – 002 – malfunction 001137 – pressure sensor 1 for exhaust gas (G450) P0471 – 001 – unplausible signal – warning light ONE I mount the logs sorted and marked by date. What’s your suggestion? First change the differential pressure sensor? Do I get there from above? I had seen an entry by Zottel. At Ross-tech I had to the Feh Do you have a number I have to take?

Hello my loved ones:-) I need your help again 🙂 I have the following problem with my fat guy:-( It’s about the following: I’ve already noticed twice once at speed 80 km/h about 1500 rpm (mountain high) and at speed 120 km/h that the car lets go for a short time then pulls back on again and then everything is ok again…(Tempomat was off)It feels like when he loses strength for a short time then gets power again like e.g. cruise and turn off while driving or speed up and brake via the buttons 🙁 Thank you very much in advance:-) Mfg Allen

Moin moin, has someone else received a letter from his VW dealer regarding “Refitting the engines of the series EA 189”. I was confused at first. Our Phaetons are not affected at all?! The writing is also very general with an indication where you can check this with input of the VIN. I did that then and got the message… “Your vehicle is not affected”. Well, I’m surprised that I got a letter at all, because they actually know What kind of car do I have to drive?

Hello to all, 3 days ago suddenly on the highway at 180 km/h strong jerking in the engine and no more power in my V6 TDI. Before never encountered problems with the engine. Immediately stopped and tow to the next VW car dealership. However no error indication and also at the following reading in the car dealership no messages in the error memory. Today call from the car dealership: 2 spark plugs have broken off and parts of it fell into the engine. Engine was probably hard besc Compression in cylinders equal to 0. Further statements are possible only after the cylinder head has been removed, which should cost only up to 23 working hours and 3500,- Euro. Probably a replacement motor is then needed. Now I ask myself, of course, whether this is realistic. I don’t know the car dealership and I have never been a customer there. I’m a bit perplexed at the moment as something like this can happen with a Phaeton V6 TDI. Especially since I regularly inspect a VW Autoh The vehicle was never heated or even kicked to the stop, but always treated carefully. Now I am thinking about whether the investment in an exchange engine at my MJ 96 is still worth it at all. Sure it is a beautiful vehicle but the replacement engine will probably exceed the market value significantly. If anyone still has an idea that I don’t think of right now, I am happy about the feedback En. Greetings capdoc

Moin, yesterday a GP3 (already with darker rear lights) with the annular license plate (it is missing in the specification consciously of the middle letters, maybe he/she reads here with a hint) before me. Maybe one of you also knows the driver….. At the same time the rear lights looked very strange. The LEDs in the rear lid were only very weak, or were darker than the outer lights. The strangest thing was that when the lights were slowed down, the lights went in the suitcase. but the light in the fenders burned normally. It looked nice, instead of looking at the “m” just a bow, but there’s something wrong: I would have thought, ok, mass problem with an older car (not Phaeton). But with a GP3 and then still with LED, how can something like that come. is the wiring to the trunk eaten or broken or what could that be, or, has someone ever seen something like that? Many greetings kt14101

Hello guys, unfortunately my Phaeton tries to get rid of my holiday mood. For 2 days the board PC only goes to the mood. Radio then goes nothing again. Also parking help.. if I press the button board PC then the message comes : at the moment not available. Is there a trick to get the whole thing back to running.. or do I have to sing 800 km myself and let my wife instruct me when packing? Please in quick tip or tricks. Love greetings and thanks in advance from Sanremo

Hello Forumler, The re Xenon burner flickers with my vehicle (li has already been replaced because of an accident damage). Actually I wanted to ignore the problem, since soon a new vehicle will come anyway, but the headlight has even failed completely last time. I know it is a serial error (even read it the last time on car picture). Can someone give me material so that I can “convince” VW that they have to switch it to culant? Greetings, Alex

Hello Phaeton driver, It’s getting cold and when I start at 6 am in the morning then my rear window is fogged I activate the heater however I don’t see how with my previous car these strips of the heater? Can someone tell me where the fuse is? Try to change the first time if I don’t drive to Vw and ask because I still have until 03/14 guaranteed.
