  1. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    I have a 2005 20 litre and have had an issue with the boot release on the drivers door ( the remote works fine). It started with an intermittent then stopped working all together. Thought it must be the switch so replaced that and it still doesn't work . Checked the replacement and old switch...
  2. New Beetle Convertible
    I'll keep it brief. the main point is that the microswitches controlling the top locking motors are mounted using a screw through an oval slot. They can work loose over time so that the end of the moving arm on the motor fails to operate the switch. The switch itself is OK it's just not getting...

    Hi there... I've searched in this group but I can't find someone with a similar problem: My low beam headlights (not daylight running lights) won't turn off while driving. As soon I turn the engine on the headlights lit up even in the switch "O" position. They do turn off when I shut down the...

    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...
  5. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Was asked to change a burn out heater switch light bulb on my mother's '04 NB Cabrio. Now I've owned 2x MK4's already (Golf/Jetta) and both have had the mini bulb behind the similar looking heater switch burn out. The procedure was put it in the off position and pull out and work from there...
  6. 2.0 Liter Gas
    Disclaimer: Forgive me, I know not what any of the parts involved are actually called. I am reasonably certain of how it works though, because it's common sense. My blower wasn't working, so the AC wouldn't turn on, and it's hot in Louisiana, so this became a priority. I'd checked all the...
  7. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Couldn't find an existing write-up on this, and I am not content with spending money on an absurdly simple electrical item. So I took it apart in hopes or repairing it, turns out it's very easy to do. This is meant to resolve turn signal issue on earlier New Beetles, and appears to be an overly...
  8. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Let me start with this morning. My wife informs me that her beetle alarm keeps going off, and the neighbor is yelling to shut it off so after about 4 times, she shuts it off until I wake up. I tell her she probably left a door ajar or something silly, and that since we were going to drive it...
  9. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Hello - I've got a 99 NB TDI and need both the clutch switches - one for the starter lockout and the other for the cruise. The po decided to take them out.... not sure why. If anyone can help me with a part number or link, it would be appreciated. I've found a lot of switches on the web, but...

    So I got this switch as part of a kit and decided not to use it. It works just fine, and already has the DRL pin bent back. If you want me to straighten it back before shipping to you, just let me know. $20.00 + Shipping! Think that's too much? Make an offer!

  14. Questions, Issues or Problems with the New Beetle
    Hi, My wife's 2003 VW Conv started having a fast blinker, first on the right, then both. All bulbs are ok and I found the posts that suggested some WD40 by the blinker arm where it connects to the column or to replace the hazard/flasher relay/switch (great post on that one -- it was easy to...

    Hello, proud owner of a 200 VW Beetle, 2.0, 117k miles. I have a strange occurence with my driver side window and possibly the switch: When my window is fully down and I push the lever to close it the window will go up about 3/4 way, stop, then roll down to about half way open/closed again...

    Hello, so I'm having a problem with my trunk. It doesn't seem to want to shut all the way. It seems to be stuck in a sort of half closed deal. I can't open it but there is some give when I lift. This just started this evening. I looked where it latches and nothing seems to be obstructing it. The...

    Ok, I have spent hours reading through a lot of a/c issue posts. I have even posted on this in the past. Still, it seems that while some issues are similar, none of the suggested remedies are resolving my situation. Main issue: 2000 1.8L a/c clutch will not engage. No power going to...
