After 5,000 km today the big shock! The warning light exhaust gas lights up and according to operating instructions I should immediately go to the next workshop. Lt. instruction becomes the catalyst very hot, which I can also confirm, because it has cracked right when cooling in the garage for the first time… Who already has experiences with the exhaust light, what can I adjust to?

Moin, the great product upgrade of our Phaeton is in the starting holes before delivery and the future of Phaeton seems to be secured under the team Winterkorn/Piech. Certainly the plans for this successor model are already running, but on the other hand we as Phaeton drivers are also an excellent basis, in order to give the responsible person a sound feedback about our wishes to the Phaeton II. With this thread I want to bundle these wishes and suggestions, in the hope (and the silent knowledge) that here also “works-side” is read. Encouraged to start this thread, @rengier have me in another thread of this forum and a thread in the 7er forum, which reflects the wishes of the BMW 7er drivers to the successor model. I quote here (in slightly modified form) the there topic starter Christian, who has formulated the following: “Write z. B.: At Phaeton I like … that must be retained or introduced again. At Phaeton or I don’t like to be reminded about it. So let me know.

Hello everyone, if you are looking at the relevant car exchanges, you will find many Phaetons who are 4 years or older and should have just 20,000 km down. After I have read a report the other day, after every 2nd to 3rd used car manipulations have taken place at the KM stand, I wonder if this is also possible at the Phaeton or if this is not possible with such upper class vehicles. On the one hand I think and hope that this is not possible without considerable effort or not at all, on the other hand I wonder if one really only drives 5000 km a year with a Phaeton… Gruss capdoc

Hello dear municipality, I have here a very exclusive wheel set, still packed in original cartons, from the vehicle veredeler Mansory lie ahead of me and would like to know if anyone else has installed these wheels. I would like to see the rims in advance completely mounted with tires on the car and if it is only once on a photo! Googel also has only sparse information, so this rim is probably originally built for the Bentley Continental GT Coupe. However, on the current Mansory homepage it is not to be found. After all, an article (pictures 11 and 12) can be found by an all-over popular opinion maker:http://www.autobild.de/…ontinental-gt-von-mansory_49586.html?… But an overall impression with car the pictures also do not give. In the part report, in any case, in addition to the Bentley the following vehicle types would be released: Audi A8 4 E Audi A8/S8 D2 VW Phaeton 3D. The load/wheel load of the rims is limited to 780 kg. V10 The size of the wheel set is quite good 9J.

Hello, as the title already says, have a Phaeton and would like to buy me rims. Now I have found some, namely Advanti SF43 8.5×20″ rims with the following tyres: 255/35 20. ET of the rims is ET35. Does this fit without the mudguards??

I noticed with my Dicken (V6 TDI with 239 hp) that it is switching very late. It is meant that the gearbox still remains relatively long in the smaller gear, despite its extremely quiet driving mode on a flat track and reaching the speed sufficient for a certain gear. So I don’t mean the sporty turning out of gears or staying in the small gear at high speeds, if one is just a little more “sporty” on the road. For example, it keeps the 4th gear in at speed 60 relatively long, although the 5th would be easy enough. Only after about 15 seconds is switched on. The same applies to the 6th gear, which would be called from speed 80. – The fifth gear usually stays up to 90 km/h, if one does not intervene manually. Even more striking is this symptom if one activates the tempomates. If then the fourth gear is accelerated from 60 to 100, the 4th gear is rotated up to almost 100 km/h. Is this such a VW Woh-Weh-Weh-Wehchen is exactly the same as a Touran 2.0 TDI with DSG, but the second gear has been hit by DSG.

Hi together, can please help me one, my ELV doesn’t make any grumps and the bad thing with it, I get the nich started and not switched to Neutral. I don’t want to want to dismantle everything. The question of me would be, I can somehow bridge it electrically and unlock it. And finally, give a guide on how to decompose the Kessy. VG Süleyman

Hello, there I have browsed through the headlines on SPON… …and discover this here: VW dealer thinning Should the many negative reviews really have led to VW bringing its dealer network to front? Was already long overdue. MfG

Dear scribes, sometimes spelling mistakes happen to me. Unlike some writers here in the forum, my spelling mistakes are still embarrassing to me. I try to avoid them anyway. I also use the error correction of the Word program. It’s not perfect, but it still delivers better results than what we sometimes have to read so lustlessly here. Sure, the puncture is not always easy for me, but at the end of the sentence one should make a point – always. Speeches like, that is so common on the Internet today, or it just goes faster I dare to doubt. It’s pure laziness of the writer and an impression to the reader. To write one takes time. One reads it several times, corrects, rejects and tests it again before one sets it here. I also do that. That has nothing to do with my opinion, whether it fits one or not to do. It’s about complete and by way correct sentences. The expression is secondary and individual. The argument, you don’t want to write it well here.
