Hello… Since today, the error “circuit pump V55 short circuit after mass” Now, after switching on the heater, it goes out again. Makes also funny noises the pump.. It buzzes. Is this defective or does it have a different reason? Greeting Alex

Moin. I read out the error codes in my car two days ago, because the air conditioning doesn’t cool properly. There was an error in the ventilation. Meaningful: Ventilation additional control unit standing heater unplausible signal. I didn’t think anything about it, because I thought that I had pulled the telestarter off. Today I play around in the menus and have to find out that the menu item standing heating is missing. Instead, “residual heat” is to be read there. Since I’m on my way, I can’t post the original bug text. Comes when I’m home later. Does anyone have an idea anyway? Greeting RocketRider

Would like to cry out my frustration here as a new Phaeton driver, also at the risk that the forum is not a wailing wall. As reported in my already created topic, my vehicle with a good 70t km (just 4 months ago bought!!!) spat out the level error and became hardy. The 2nd official VW/Audi Freundliche detects a defective Komfi battery and says everything well. On the way home it was also – just before Christmas. On the following day I am driven through on the highway It takes long waves, air-suspension-like, but tight, not floating. But short blows rumble like in an old car. A heavily damaged road rides like roller coaster… The VWler says “everything is repaired, everything works, no error messages, you have to compare with a 2nd Phaeton, but maybe that’s how it fits anyway”. Super. I’m mega-frustrated and just want to get rid of the box. e now have to agree that the VWler opens a new case, according to the motto, let’s try it, let’s ask at VW or look into the database. Does anyone have experience with hard-hitting shocks despite “functional” suspension in such a young car with only 70t km?

So, after a long time of pushing me around, I started the topic of “pulling aid” today. It just acknowledged the service on the BF-side some time ago. Wasn’t as complicated as I feared … Since I don’t have a VCDS to hand, I just knocked off the “mechanical” side, unfortunately without success: -> Motor for pull assistance works (“unfortunately, because this aggravates the problem”, tested at the other door and the initialization finds enough, who Then I expanded the lock, hoping to find any clue, even there unfortunately without success. -> I don’t know where the contactor for the pull-in aid is installed, the two microswitches that I found are certainly not. Wires and Bowden trains can also be excluded. So must be at the lock/contactor. Well, does anyone have another idea? Try the steering wheel first of course. guess to read out, but could it be that there is still an unbeatable insider tip or someone has more information about the construction of the castle/kontakgeber?

Evening people, I would have a question to which already diesel and petrolef have driven in Phaeton. I myself have recently been owner of a 3.0 tdi gp2 and mega satisfied. Just I wanted to ask if there is also who has a direct comparison between 3.0 TDI and W12? Wouldn’t the extreme example however 3.0TDI and V8 would be good greeting Dennis

Hello guys, maybe someone here knows what that’s like. I’ve been asking myself the question for a while, but I’m afraid to keep asking again and again. So, I’ve noticed in all my automatic vehicles so far (so also in Phaeton) that you can have different engine turns at a certain speed in the same gear. For example at Phaeton: – 5 gear – 100km/h – you let it slide, i.e. gas only slightly tap that it holds the speed, the engine has approx. 1800 U /Min. – If you give a little bit more gas and accelerate from 90km/h to 110km/h, the engine has already from 90km/h over 2200 rpm. How can that be? I thought up to now that the gear shift has 5 gears. These are rigid and translate always with a fixed transmission. That means for me, that the motor, should a gear be inserted, always have to turn immediately if you drive with a gear the same speed. There is still the clutch (or converter or how to d but that would mean that she is always grinding? Oo Or is there nothing more today? How is then uncoupled/coupled? Oo Did someone else notice that?

that there is a Phaeton W12 less in Berlin. But don’t worry, nothing happened, he just moved and “lives” from today in the Rhine-Main area. But now in plain language, when I asked a question about a Diesel Phaeton in the purchase consultation a few weeks ago, a reply came within a few minutes from Udo: Stefan, I would have something great for you. Is the car of a forum colleague and guaranteed in all matters top. More Phaeton and more engine goes almost not.: My spontaneous answer – a 12 cylinder, does not come into question at all, that is too unreasonable for me. But the more I have thought about it………. Because I am reasonable I also looked at diesel, not bad, the equipment good, but the spark did not jump over. So then I called in Berlin – quite non-binding. Admittedly the beginning was very tough, appointment problems and I had the feeling that the provider was not sure if he After the matter became more concrete, the seller got the feeling that I mean it seriously, I had to do it with an above-average accommodating and trying salesman who really took a lot of trouble. Thank you berlinrobbi But also thanks to Udo and all the others who encouraged me to try one / the W12. As I said – you are to blame. Thank you Stefan

Hello you love, yesterday I wanted to turn on my air conditioner, because the air was very humid. But from my KLima plant nothing came except the warm air from outside. Can this be that my KLima plant is gone ? or do you have another idea? MFG

Hello everyone, my new (older, EZ 12/2007) Phaeton is ticking tremendously….Shortly to the course… Purchased with defective tailgate……Car had stood a little longer….ZV didn’t go, car was sold in commission, therefore actually sold privately. I gave the order to look up the batteries, if they were too old please exchange and possibly charge, statement of the workshop: battery is from 2014, everything is good, I looked, can not recognize the age of the comfort battery. On the Fah I wanted to lock the car manually, went, after about 3 minutes the alarm went off, I had my trouble to get the beep out again. Shortly afterwards, about 2 km, the engine control light went on, car drives only 60 km/h. Oh menno….Woman panicked…..they must have betupt me..:-(( Arrived at home, man mots….Comfort battery measured, man says battery almost dead, woman why do you buy only such a scrap…. .Yes, yes, I know laughter…. No seriously, is my Phaeton still to be saved? I can imagine that I need a new battery, but the engine control lights worry me, she says: Woman drive in workshop….I hope you can help me….. Greeting Benitolino

I bought my Phaeton EZ 03/2014 at the beginning of this year at a VW dealer in Lower Saxony with 102 tkm on it. The service that should be done at 100 tkm was not done yet. The dealer told me, before I get it, is cleaned inside and outside again and the upcoming 100 tkm service is done. In the service booklet everything else is stamped without gaps at VW, but this last service is not in it. Did they just save work there? But then the Auto doc How can I control this and what should I do? MfG, Karl31
