A little backstory is needed. My girlfriend drives a 2009 2.5L convertible beetle. She bought it about a year ago and has kept great basic maintenance on it since she bought it. A few months back she was driving somewhere and her car lost all gas pedal response and slowed to a stop. The car...

Does anyone know how to remove the Ignition interlock cable from the back of the ignition housing. I have the housing loose and the only thing holding the ignition housing is the transmission interlock cable, I have the clip removed but the cable won't come out of the housing. TIA

Recently started work on my daughter's beetle (2003 1.8 Turbo) that has been sitting for a couple of years. It was parked because of a limp mode issue that is probably irrelevant. Long story short, put in new battery, activated immobilizer. Fixed that issue by leaving key in and on for a few...

I just recently replace my ignition barrel and ignition switch in my 2000 vw beetle. I put the key in to make sure it fixed my issue. I turned the car off and when i went to remove the key i realized the key was stuck in the ignition. I have tried wiggling the steering wheel, shifting from park...

Hi, I have a 2000 new beetle that had the infamous ignition switch burnout problem. I have replaced the ignition switch 3x now, and recently the starter started grinding at random while the car was on. I would have to scramble to find the perfect position for the key to get it to stop...

I have a 2000 new beetle with the 1.8 turbo. I just had to replace the ignition switch. But after coming home from the shop, I started experiencing new problems. When I put Annabeth into first, and then move and have to stop again (without getting out of first) her trunk pops open. It's not...

My Beetle decided not to start. I've eliminated any ignition (coil) or fuel pump problems. I found that the F10 fuse in the panel is blown. When I replaced it I did get the motor to fire up for a second, then it died. The fuse was blown again. Apparently, this is the main power to the ECM...

I have read a lot of posts here about new beetles not turning over when the key is turned to the start position.

I have a 2007 New Beetle 2.5 with about 102K miles. I tried to start it this morning and the key just spins in the ignition. I tried every combination of wiggling the wheel and turning the key but it won't do anything but spin freely. To make matters worse, the key can't be removed from the...

Hey all, I'm new to the forum but have an old '01 AZG New Beetle. I tore apart my dash to fix my blend door issue for the air conditioning (btw still not fixed, was missing the pin bushing). Since putting everything back together I've driven the car for over 1000km (mostly highway) over the...

Hey folks - Drove my car to work this morning, no problems. Tried to grab lunch across town, but I couldn't start my 2001 Beetle. Turning the key to 'on' gives me a blinking 'BRAKE' light, and my fuel gauge doesn't move like it usually does. Trying to turn the key for ignition doesn't really...
