Category: VW Phaeton Forum

Hello to the Phaeton-Round, stand at the last stage of the compilation of my equipment list and have unexpectedly a little decision problem: The initial situation: I looked at a vehicle live in Mocca / Silk Corn Beige / carpet dark brown. The color combination is very nice. Picture of it is attached – 01.jpg. What kind of wood is that – pappelmaser or pappelmaser gray? Since the seating combinations in St Tropez and Snow Beige are relatively whiteish, these two are not really my favorite. A Fzg with Snow Beige I also looked at live and felt it as “very cool” The Phaeton consultant has made me aware that the Navi is always surrounded by black frames, so that he offers to take a rather black wooden type: pianolack takes a good look out of pappelmaser black would be my favorite of pappelmaser gray have so far not found a good photo, but should be really very dark and with a light board, if I didn’t want to fix it, but I got a good look for the color tag.

Please ask during the visits whether the vehicle was affected by this recall action, supervised by the KBA:https://www.motor-talk.de/…/…measure-34-k5-01-t7114796.html?… If yes and the transmission update has already been made, this is noted in the service booklet. If, despite VW’s letter, the seller does not have it done yet. Should this call for the vehicle be denied by the seller, don’t believe it so easily, but let it be confirmed in writing. Or the seller should call in your presence the responsible service phone of VW, No. 0800 8655792436. Not all 3.0 TDI between the 2008-2015 EZ were affected, but it is safe to say so.Edit: I very much ask you not to use this thread for further content and technical contributions to the update. This is the linked thread. LG Udo

Hello dear community, I have been the proud owner of a vw phaeton 2012 bj 3.0 tdi for 3 weeks. I noticed with the thick that when the engine is running on the driver side comes a light air hissing out of the engine compartment. When I turn off the engine it hisssssssss about 2-3 seconds after. I was the friendly around the corner he meant his completely normal. Also another mechanic told me I did not have to worry about it. It is not on the drive again I feel nothing unusual with the driver. I first had worry that it is the brake booster however he likes to brake and the engine number behaves completely normal. Can someone tell if this is normal or I should still get some advice in the from which I have a photo from which area the noise comes. I thank you in advance and wish a nice and relaxing weekend!

Hello dear community of the Phaeton drivers, First of all a friendly “Hello” in this forum. Please excuse this new Fred, but I want to get rid of 2 questions, And if now comes, use the Sufu, then delete this thread quite simply. I at least did not find it. Where do I find with the GP3, 3 liter diesel, BJ 2013, 5 seaters, CD changer… a permanent plus? Would it be nice in the glove compartment or under the steering wheel, the camera has a power supply with div. connections for a fuse box (double insert with branching) My front disc is “GPS-blind”, this applies to the camera module as well as to my phones (all Apple) So nothing with a GPS-using app. Does anyone know remedy, a solution? I do not want to reopen a fundamental discussion. (Sorry for this sentence, but I tried to follow the previous Threats, were partly very deviating)

One of the things I had to say about the brakes was that the brake brake was very bad for me. I had to say that the brake brake was bad for me. I had to say that the brake brake was bad for me.

Hello Phaeton friends, It’s done…. Probably as one of the first I refitted the complete wooden package incl. wooden center console. It’s not the normal wood version, but the one with inlays (myrtle with zambelli). Apart from the center console the effort was very manageable and possible for every half gifted craftsman. If now someone has come to the taste, I will gladly give you tips or the instructions. Sunny greetings from Würzburg, Tobias

Since two of our leasing contracts expire at the beginning of next year and we were very satisfied with our last thickness, I thought about an advertising email from a car dealer: Why not? Priced highly interesting! However, no answer came to my mail, with two phone calls I was promised a call back, stayed with the promise…….So far nothing tangible.Can your dealer recommend, does not necessarily have to lie in Nuremberg or surroundings, which are fair and above all reliable with their customers? The decision two years ago not to lease a Phaeton again was primarily due to the service but also to the seller, who in front of Arroganz strotze. I thought it might have changed something. With our ex dealer probably not. At the moment we have all our vehicles from BMW and are there really well looked after. Have you got tips? Also by PN. Thank you very much.

Good day. And I have recently had a big problem. The car Ruckelt/ Vibrates strongly from 100 km/h. I have already looked up the tires 2 times. Does not help. The steering wheel remains stable and does not shake at all. It is rather the whole vehicle. All crossbars, the coupling bars, track rods with track rods head are new (changed about 4 months ago and the axle was measured) the car drove like new. Until I changed only the mature ones on the same rims 1 week ago. Also these are as good as new and did not run more than 20,000 km. Otherwise no other abnormalities or noises on the chassis can be heard. Am really desperate by now. We really not what this could be about. Greeting Andi

With my Ctek charger I can only reach the 2nd light diode after 4 days. Otherwise the battery already has at least 3 diodes that light up when you start charging! The battery is only a few months old, so I exclude a defect. If the battery was empty after longer service life, then it was charged up to the 7 diode at the latest after 3 days. Has anyone ever had this and solved it? On the inside windshield I had moisture. Where is the control unit? right or left? Have times raised the upper mats, so far dry, but I don’t see anywhere where you can lift anything to check the control unit and its environment for moisture.

Hello dear Phaeton friends, I don’t know if such a thread is wanted in this forum at all, because the technical problem is missing. If not to delete briefly. On the other hand, I thought we all had fun with our dives and there are certainly a lot of pictures in which one or the other Phaeton can be seen in unusual surroundings, situation or whatever. So I would have at least my fun at such a collection in this forum and I hope a few of you see it the same way and upload their pictures as well. First of all I send you a holiday greeting from Osterloog (East Frisia) Greeting Andreas
