Hi Guys, My name is Pedro and I'm from Portugal. I have a 2003 1.9 TDI beetle and I have recently created a channel where I'll be posting some videos on maintenance and mods I'll be doing on my new beetle project. Currently it is still mainly stock, the long term project is a vintage look...

First time poster - please be nice! :o I bought a used 2000 New Beetle hatchback and the trunk opened with switch and key when I first bought it. Got it home and went to get into trunk and no luck. I do not have the FOB part to my switchblade key, just the key itself and the valet key. I...

My wife bought an '02 Turbo S Beetle. Found out the hard way that the schmuck who owned the car before us had the passenger side control arm mounted to the cross member with a welded in bolt. Found a replacement cross member part but I'd like to find a how-to on removing and replacing before I...

I have had this horn/tea pot type sound coming from my car. I have had no luck finding out which hose was the culprit. Now I know. Attached are two photos that are making the sound. Can someone tell me what part this is and is it easy to replace as far as DIY. Thanks.

Today 'The Berlin Banger' received a new set of lungs. I decided I wanted to replace the stock air filter with a K&N air filter. For those who are unfamiliar with these filters, they basically let in more air and and never have to be replaced. You can wash them and oil them and re-use them...

I've just repaired the window regulator on my 2001 NB on the driver's side. I removed the window from the door and am at loss on how it goes back in! I think I unhooked the window from the clips, dropped the clips and lowered the rear bottom corner of the door and pulled the glass up and out. I...
