To say this Beetle has seen better days is not stretching the truth, at all. Someone added some lipstick, but forgot to do some real maintenance. Come along on this journey to save this poor hapless car from the junk yard. We can rebuild it... we have the technology.

I have a 2001 new beetle gls manual with 357,000 miles… I love this car! And speaking of handling.. I live in the Ozarks, switchback roads like crazy… I know there will be haters.. but I put 2 inch hubcentric wheel spacers on it (been on it for 4 years) and it corners like a monster, (bearings are fine) and it looks like a hot hot wheels car..

I am right there with you, mentally. I do not like things going to waste when you have the knowledge and parts to get it back into shape. What I am wondering is how you got your wife to say okay to a third Beetle? LOL!

@HelicoolsHelipad
@HelicoolsHelipad 2 года назад
It is way beyond fixing. The timing chain broke in it (I found out) and destroyed the engine. I've pulled enough parts off of it now that it would be a losing battle to bring it back. It lives again in other cars, though.

I was able to remove the bumper cover in one piece by finding all the little screws that held it on. Eventually, I also removed these fenders because they were also damaged. Thanks for the advice.

I’ve had 2 beetles now also and a Jetta, the beetle handles amazing! Don’t drill a hole in your thermostat housing, the 1.8t is self burping. Just squeeze the hoses to create vacuum and get as much air out as possible, then let the car do the rest.

got so tired of my TDI's running away. 2 of them now.... on last one this was even after swapping to brand new injection pumps and turbo.. and it still ran away a year and a half later (still with in range on timing belt). Presently driving a BEW closing on on 300k miles a friend gave me... but once I get my dieselized Jeep TJ working where I trust it (w/ MB OM617A)..... I will sell all the TDI's. just flat burned out on them. Granted this is useless rambling since this thread is about a Petrol New Beetle.
@HelicoolsHelipad
@HelicoolsHelipad 3 года назад
I have a TDI New Beetle as well... love the car. Going on 320K... I don't think the turbo spins anymore, but I don't really want to put any money into it due to it's miles. I've never had a diesel run away (thank goodness). Sounds scary. This one looks like it will serve my son for his first semester of his Senior year in college. I hope to have it done for him, and then it's working on his car... found water in the oil. :-/

You need to hook a code reader up to it. The computer should save all the information, so you don't have to wait for the check engine light to remain on. You can hook one up for free at any AutoZone, O'Reilies, etc..
