I would like to learn something about the motivation of my car dealership (with which I am very satisfied). The question is: what does my car dealership deserve most? Repairs and inspections occur on all three models with normal course to the same extent. With my current vehicle I am extremely free and with all the discussions I am not quite so sure on what I enter with a new vehicle. At present I prefer economic criteria for my decision. Who can give more detailed information? Hasel

Dear car friends, I bought a VW Phaeton first registration in May 2008. Under SPECIAL EQUIPMENT / ACCEPTION, the daily driving light was listed, not an LED daytime driving light. Now I was informed that my vehicle should not have any daytime driving light at all. For the discussion with the seller I urgently need information like in the VW sales documents the daily driving light was described under SPECIAL EQUIPMENT / ACCEPTION and what extra charge was calculated for it. The dealer allegedly no longer has these documents available. As a description I received first of all: until the model year 2008 there was a daily driving light circuit for the Phaeton. This is encoded once in the control unit. Thus the front and rear lighting is activated when the ignition is switched on. The switch off can only be done by switching off the ignition. The light sensor is deactivated thereby. When I asked for the activation of the day driving light circuit described above, it turned out that even this limited functionality was not given. Who can provide me this information for the description of the 2007/Regardless price and your support for the 2007/Regardless price:

Our phaetia is not so bad at all against the competitors… 🙂 Link:http://auto.t-online.de/…/index

Hello dear Phaeton community, we were looking for an Alfa Romeo with various defects on the lookout for a classic saloon. Large, comfortable, safe and of high quality. I-Drive or MMI we did not want, rather a classic cockpit with real wood and lots of leather! It became a 3.0 TDI Phaeton in dark blue with extended wooden package and wooden steering wheel. The car also fits my wife (1.56 meters, size 34/XS) and that is unfortunately not a matter of course. All-wheel, automatic, a proper weight and a great workmanship really convey a very safe and comfortable driving feeling. One gets relaxed to the destination and does not have to race constantly… the car decelerates, it is very relaxed and pleasant. Actually we have only 2 criticism points: 1. In the passat we find (subjectively) the operation of the Tempomat ergonomic. 2. That navigation could be a little more modern/faster. Otherwise a really great car and clearly better than our passat. With the materials the Phaeton is worth at least 2-3 classes better!

Hello, to order from now on and luckily again a wall calendar.http://www.glaesernemanufaktur.de/…/news—year calendar-2014.html Another stormy Nikolaus evening, Tobias

Moin. I know there are already x topics on this topic, but have been looking for days and find no answer. So: After the instructions here in the forum, I recoded the heater for the heater and unlocked the heater. Menu in the ZAB is available, can also set a time, but the heater does not start, also with the button at the top left of the ZAB. Is it so that the heater works only under 4 degrees, or should it always go? (tank full, battery enough voltage of course) If I drive the heater directly via VCDS, it goes. Auto is a 2008 3.0TDI with 239hp, i.e. GP1.5. I still think “frischling” at the Phaeton, have it only since April, had before 2 times A6 4f. MFG Florian

Hello, I have a question for you Phaeton drivers.

Dear Phaeton-driver, unfortunately my BC shows me that my Phaeton, 3.0 TDI/from 11/2007 wants a service with 171kw. He now has 120,000 km on the clock and I ask myself now what I need exactly for what I can do myself, what I have to do and how I can save money, because I have just become a twin father and need every cent. It is as said about a 3.0 TDI (0603 ALQ) and also about a leasing ride, which I have to give back in December with a maximum of 130,000 km. I do not want to take any unnecessary risk, but save what goes on. Should I buy parts at ebay, go to a happy workshop? I am grateful for every advice. Thank you, Stephan

Hello, Has any of you ever tried to retrofit a front window heater? Is that possible? Does anyone have a schematic, because the friendly is reluctant to get anything out?! Thank you

Hello user, today tried in vain to pair my new smartphone ( Samsung Galaxy S4) with my ZAB. I had a normal Bluetooth search and my S4 was found. Then I got a code on the screen and entered it. Apparently it worked, but if I want to call over the smartphone comes the message “Not logged in on the net”. Does anyone have a tip or does someone have a connection from the GP1/S4??
