Hello,
I'm new to the forum and am currently looking to buy a 02 Beetle w/70k on the clock. Car has the 2.0 motor and standard trans.
I was pretty gung ho on the car at first till I read some user feedback on Edmunds.
My questiona are:
When do you replace the timing belt and how much would it cost at a dealer. Or could I do it at home?
Clucth, when do they usually wear out and again what would the cost be to have it replaced. Just from looking at the car I suspect that the motor has to be pulled (like the old airhead ) I had years ago.
Any other weak points I should know about the 02 2.0 L model?
Thanks for any and all info,
