2012 Volkswagen Routan - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Hi Solution: This indicates a serious failure of your throttle control system. The engine computer is programmed to go into limp mode when the system malfunctions, in an attempt to limit your speed and prevent damage to the engine. It can be caused by a sensor failure, or even by outside electromagnetic interference. May need to get your car computer reset. All best Clive

Check the Freon levels while the car is running with the A/C on. It sounds like its low which happens from age.

There is no fuse for headlights. You need to change the Bulb inside the lens

There isn't any ! U will have 2 check a service manual or ask someone at autozone or advance auto ! it will take a few minutes 4 them 2 x plain it ! no more dipstick !

CHECK FUSES FIRST AND THE ONES AT THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT,,,,,

open rear tailgate. 2 torx 30 on inside of tail light. Then just pull. There are 2 clips that is it sits in. Then bulb turns to remove.

check the wiring and harness very close,something is probably not getting connection.

anything newer than a 2002 can only be done by a dealer have scanned and posted the book instructions providing that its umcensored when you get the post

Yes, the diagnostic is correct - the hinges have rusted and they seized. The fix on the other hand is not very cost effective: you don't need to replace the hinges, you can unseize them with some WD40 and a rubber mallet.
Hit the hinge with the mallet to break its rust layer and spray the WD40 on it, plenty of it. Wait a few hours to let the solvent penetrate the rust then hit it again and try to move it at the same time. Do that until the seat moves well, wait a day then add some fine oil on the hinge them move it to allow the oil to fully penetrate.
You will need to repeat the oiling at least once every 2 months or the hinge will seize again, this time for good.

A horn circuit first must have power so check your fuse. Then it goes through the horn switch (on the steering column) then through the horn relay and then to the horn itself.

If you changed the horns did you check to find out IF the horns were getting DC voltage to them first? If you don't, then it is either the switch or the relay.

these are kind of tricky on the VWs as you will need to remove the steering wheel. There are a few screws and bolts that need to be removed from the bottom dash, on the drivers side, and then work your way up, after removing that there will be a series of screws on the mid column of the dash, and a few behind the blanks that need to be popped out. by this point you will see the screws that are under the upper portion of the cluster trim and the 2 that are on the bottom. after these are removed you will see the screws for removing the cluster. Also you will need a 26mm socket to remove the steering wheel.

This describes the oil level indicator lamp. Adding oil ....from VW preferably, should make it go out.

If the lamp is the service reminder lamp the hand book should describe how to reset it. Failing that, look up an independent shop for help. Most European shops have a book describing how to reset oil service reminder lamps etc.

Having traveled Italy extensively I found shops and dealerships quiet helpful and someone there usually speaks English if you have no Italian.

At http://www.iatn.net/shopfinder/ you can search for a shop for him.

yes you can no problem just order a belt for the model with no AC

By removing gearbox & clutch assembly.

Check oil level on dipstick, if okay then replace oil filter, If it still happens then suspect oil pressure sender switch.
