    Just purchased a 2006 NBC with 33k miles from a non-VW dealership. Three weeks of ownership so far. After paying a premium for the car, I have already spent another $2100 at my local VW dealership for service repairs (these things should have been done before the car was sold). Seriously...

    became loose(after tighten that screw that keeps the headlight locked). The thin metal lever that helps to hold the assembly in place seems to be a little bit loose too, doesn't do anything if I press it down and release it.

  10. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Hi, I'm retired and love working on cars even when I get into trouble. No car seems to give me more stress than this little Beetle. It's virtually impossible to learn how to fix it without any aids (books, online forums etc.). I'm use to old 60's Pontiacs. Here is what I am currently working...
