Back to top Tech Tips 44-14-02 ABS/TPMS light is on due to wheel speed sensor fault as a result of the Front Wheel Bearing / Wheel Speed Sensor swapping Model(s) Year Eng.Code Trans.Code Passat, Jetta (16), Beetle/Beetle Convertible, Golf/GTI, Tiguan 2012– 2015 All All This can be the due to the Encoder Ring being ground down on the wheel bearing hub unit, resulting in a damaged part. Cause: Damage from swapping the speed sensors left to right (or vice versa) during diagnosis. (Complete width of encoder damaged) Tip: Discontinue the practice of swapping sensors from side to side during workshop diagnosis. 70-14-01 Headliner Removal Installation Model(s) Year Eng.Code Trans.Code Passat 2012–2014 All All The removal and installation of the headliner on the Passat can be time consuming and difficult in some areas. Properly installing the headliner, seals and pillar trims will alleviate many issues that would normally be attributed to a headliner cut to short. All steps should be followed from ELSA. Every piece of trim the repair manual has you remove is very important to create the clearance needed to remove the headliner from the vehicle and get the new headliner into the vehicle. Below are steps of the headliner removed/reinstalled without being bent through the front passenger door with glove box removed and both front seats reclined flat. See Tech Tip document for Service Information with additional diagrams. 70-14-02 Instrument Cluster Trim/Left and Center Instrument Panel Vent Assembly Removal Procedure.

Trans. Code Code All All VIN Range From VIN Range To Verify the open Campaigns/Actions screen in Elsa to Verify the open Campaigns/Actions screen in Elsa to It is possible that gas bubbles may form in the fuel system when winterized fuel with high vapor pressures is used in warmer areas or months with higher ambient temperatures or during engine hot soak. Engine hot soak occurs when a vehicle is at operating temperature and then is shut off. The condition occurs when the engine is restarted within a short period of time, before the engine has fully cooled down. When the vehicles, affected by this recall, have been operated under low load for an extended period of time, deposits may collect and degrade the electrical current flow inside the in-tank fuel pump leading to reduced fuel pump performance and pressure. If these conditions occur in combination, the fuel pump may not be able to overcome the vapor pressure under low loads and can potentially result in a vehicle stall directly after engine start, increasing the risk of a crash.
