    Hi, I have just purchased a 2006 2.0L automatic NB for my wife. After leaving the dealership I noticed that the speed registering on the speedometer seemed low. After stopping I saw that the needle fell below 0mph by quite a bit. I removed the front of the cluster and manually moved the...

  5. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Hello, I'm new and basically here to ask other beetle people if its time to pull the plug. I still have my first car which is an '02 TDI. I've probably poured more $$ into this car than I should have but it's sentimental at this point. Recently the engine cut out while I was driving after a...

    Hi, Like others, the foam on my Beetle air blend doors has rotted and fallen off. (FYI: The 2 blend doors are metal flaps deep inside the dash and mix hot/cold air and direct air to the various outlets. The doors are covered w/ foam that degrades into gummy, sticky pebbles that blow into the...
  8. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    I have a 2001 new beetle which I've had for just over a month. (Lifelong dream!) I took it in for a service and got a call that there's no point in going through with the service because it needs roughly £1000 worth of work including welding work for underbody rust. The car itself was £300 and a...

    What's everyone working on right now, or hope to get done soon? I've had my 00' for two weeks, nd in the first two got everything done mechanical/performance wise. All fluid changes, adjustments, etc. Right now I'm working on styling. My bug came with quite a bit of damage. I'm trying to do...
  10. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    I had one of the fuel injectors replaced on my 2013 2.0T Beetle. I was looking under the hood after the work was done and found that the top part of what I assume is related to the air intake was just resting on its base. Should the fit be so loose? The retaining clips seem extremely...

  13. 2.0 Liter Gas
    Okay, I've been reading over some of the posts from people here about their throttle bodies, and it hasn't helped at all. I have a 2003 Beetle GLS 2.0L, and my current issue is a high idle. For a few months now I've been battling with my car and it's ability to run. Over a year ago I had to...
  14. Paint and Body
    My '02 NB TDI has long worn a bumper sticker saying, "Yeah, it's ugly, but I get 40 mpg." It gets a lot of attention, and as a proud owner, I usually reply, "Half of that statement is true." Now, however, both statements are true... I clipped a concrete curb the other day while turning a street...
