Touareg :: Volume Increasing And Can't Access MFI On Steering Column
Nov 5, 2004
I got in my truck yesterday morning and as soon as I turn the key, the volume starting increasing to as loud as it would go, as I attempted to turn it down, it fights me and turns up. The only way to stop the madness is to turn off the radio all together. I then noticed that I was unable to access my MFI from the steering column and the Volume buttons do not work there as well.
If I cycle power on the stereo a few times the volume increase will stop......until I touch any setting on the stereo, then the gremlins take over once again.

Any way to increase the max volume on a 2009? My main issue is with the AUX in channel, it doesn't have the same power that the radio and CD player have.

I have a V8 w/o navigation. I am able to adjust the volume of the radio from the steering column but would like to know whther I can change stations from the steering column as well. None of the controls seem to allow it.

Noticed a clicking noise coming from the steering column or instrument cluster. This usually occurs when the car is warming up, but I have noticed it other times as well.

Is there a way to increase the volume of the buzz sound when locking the door with the remote? It has been bothering me for a while. Every time I lock the door with a remote as I am walking away from the car, I need to listen very carefully for the almost inaudible buzz sound so I am sure the door is locked. I searched in the settings but didn't find where it can be changed.
BTW, it is a 2014 RX350.

I took a ten hour drive to see about a parts car for a car I'd like to restore and on my way there and back I noticed my stock radio (with CD player) that came with the truck would not increase in volume beyond a certain point. At its peak it was about one-third of what it should be despite the meter being all the way to the far right.
As I drove along for hours, I noticed a couple of times that the volume would come and go.It would be itself momentarily then go back to almost nothing. Also,when I first start the truck,there is a short popping sound hailing from the speakers. For what it's worth,the CD player stopped reading CDs a ways back.. Does any radio manufacturer out there make a radio/CD player for this model that just slips right in without any cutting or looking aftermarket?

Went to pick up my Touareg tonight. Took it for a quick test drive and there was a noise and rattle coming from the steering column when you hit bumps. It sounded like metal on metal. The tech guy drove it with me and agreed something is wrong. They put it up on the rack but I left because I had been there for one hour and that was already past my mental limit for being in a car dealership. I didn't sign the paperwork. Told them to call me when they figure it out and I'll come back and buy it if the problem is not significant. Everything was going great until then.

Wipers, Compass and Steering Volume button stop working.... I cleared all codes, the problem still exists. I checked all the fuses, all ok. What else to do?

T-reg is at the dealer and told it won't be back for at least a week. I noticed water in the rear cargo area under air compressor after rain. Also, rear wiper makes a terrible noise when turned on. Was told that replacement parts are not local and would take at least a week.
Noticed vibration from the steering column area when coming to a stop at a traffic light? Be sure to check your cargo areas!!!

When I got my Prius, the volume knob didn't work, and I thought I could live with it. Steering wheel controls work fine except when I'm turning the wheel, then I have to chase the buttons. I really want the volume knob to function properly.
The post that inserts into the head unit volume receiving column is sheared off and stuck in there. I tried super-gluing it back together, but that didn't give me the slight bumpy sensation when I turned it. I thought it would at least depress, but not when it was superglued together. It won't pop in and out when I press on it when it was glued.

So the dealer replaced my homelink buttons for the delaminating. The light that lights up when you press the button is not present in the cutout. Rather than drag the truck all the way back to the dealer, I was hoping to pop the cover off and reposition it myself.

I put in keyless start about a year ago (best mod ever) and about three weeks my keyless access stopped working. Keyless start works fine. Supposedly I need something called a Kessey module. Is there any chance the two are related? Is the Kessey module the thing you put the extra wires into for the keyless start or is it an entirely separate module?

I try to lock the treg with the button on drivers door handle and nothing happens. All other door buttons work fine. Am I in for a new door handle or just another software quirk?

Access start module (kessy module) is acting up, not complete shut down. The 04 Touareg now only opens when you use the remote key button. I have tried to locate a used one...

Before some days I couldn't open sometimes the doors with the keyless access. I have to try two or three times till the key to be recocnized. I changed the batteries but the problem still remains. Now I cannot even start the engine I receive the message "Key Not Found" ... This could be a faulty antenna or the Kessy Module?

When I start my car the radio has no sound and the volume knob does not respond. I need to switch to another function in order to restore sound... ie, if it is on radio I need to switch to AUX. I have a video adapter installed, but it has always worked fine. This seemed to just start happening out of the blue.

2004 CD Navigation. The issue is that I can't get the damn navigation volume to go any lower. The navigation volume is a touch too loud relative to the music volume. When I try to lower the navigation volume, it's already at the lowest mark on the scale.
(Yes I set the navigation volume while it's speaking). Maybe there is some way to reset the mid-point in volume and then I can lower it?

I have a 2006 with the DVD Nav radio. Sometimes when I am turning and going over a bump (curb, speed bump), the volume jumps up dramatically. Even when the radio is on mute, it will come out of mute and start playing substantially louder than the volume was set prior to mute. At first, I assumed I must be hitting the VOL+ button on the steering wheel but then I realized that it often happened when my hand was on the completely another side of the wheel (with the 2006 power steering change, it's pretty easy to turn one-handed). I am downright positive this isn't user-error.

My father who is elderly, has difficulty disengaging the steering column lock on his 2006 Saturn Vue. I also have experienced this problem even after trying to rock the wheel back and forth while trying to turn the key over. This appears to be a known problem and we have had to tow the Vue in for have the cylinders "de-burred," but the problem persists. He has had many vehicles with this feature in the past, but we have never had any problems before. Does this feature can be disabled. I am afraid he will be stranded some place away from home because he is unable to get the car started. I realize this is an anti-theft device, but it that is a risk we are willing to take.

Well I think I am finally getting to the end of my lighting problems. I have them all working except for the lights on the turn signal lever, the windshield wiper lever, the cruse control and the steering wheel. So all the light on the steering column are out. I cannot find a bad fuse. Which fuse it might be, or some other items to check?
