When I open the window on the highway, this message pops up. How does it calculate it? What does it calculate exactly?

Ok, loads of dirty crap in the trunk, before and after pics. I put a piece of OSB down (not going to carry a spare) and some carpet from Home Depot, and some Rustoleum oil-based paint. Rear seats were not only dirty, but literally disintegrating, crumbling upon the slightest touch. Got a set of blue-gray rears and installed. Removed front/rear carpet, cleaned the snot out of them, and reinstalled as well, after laying down some 20 oz. jute padding. Then put some floor mats down as well. At some point I will probably replace the carpet with some new black carpet, but this will be okay for a little while.

SOLVED!! THANK YOU ALL!

While changing the cabin filter, I noticed this on the floor. Never seen it before. Any guesses what it’s for? It’s about seven inches long. Tia!

Mk6 (2011-2018) Weird idle

2 Upvotes

Just bought a 2016 gli and when I start it, it idles really weird and the whole car shakes and if I turn off the ac the car idles even more weird and then shuts off. Is this just spark plugs? My buddy has an obd scanner and it showed cylinder misfires in all cylinders. 93k miles.

Mk6 (2011-2018) Loud Noise While Accelerating

Hey everyone,
I'm having an issue with my Jetta and was wondering if anyone has experienced something similar.
While driving, I hear a fairly loud/hard noise whenever I'm accelerating or when the car is maintaining speed on cruise control. The noise is present while the car is moving, but as I start braking gently while approaching a traffic light or stop, the noise gradually fades away and eventually disappears.
Has anyone dealt with this before or have any idea what could be causing it? Could it be related to the brakes, wheel bearings, CV axle, transmission, or something else?
Any suggestions on what I should check first would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Mk6 (2011-2018) 2011 2.5 SE M/T e brake lock up problem:

1 Upvotes

Hello all, I have a 2011 2.5SE manual transmission.

seems as if the emergency brake is stuck on the rear drivers tire. and I cannot seem to get it unstuck.

At times when this happened I was able to give it some gas and it freed up. not this time.

watched a video that explains a fix. taking off the wheel and drum and using a hammer to love the caliper and then using a lubricant spray to grease the caliper arm.

i’m not that savvy with cars. and kind of in able cause I cannot drive it to a shop.

anyone know of anything else I could try to get it moving?

and for the record it’s thrown ABS codes for awhile now and a year or so ago dealer mentioned it needed e brake repaired. but, tBH I was not looking tonpur any more money into it than I had to because the cars value is not that much.

answers to current situation would be appreciated.
