  3. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    (2003 NB Convertible 1.8T 09G) When I open the top (automatic switch operation), the passenger side latch moves back to engage the locking pin, but the driver's side latch never engages no matter how long I hold the switch. The convertible top opens and closes normally other than that. How...
