Here is the situation. In the Summer of 2009 we installed an Interstate battery that we got from Sam's. In warm or above freezing weather it cranks just fine. When it is below freezing, sometime the starter makes a little grrr sound or nothing at all. On another vehicle with an Interstate...

It is a sad day, my crazy old neighbor has turned me in to DeKalb zoning. A zoning officer left a note on my door telling me that I can not have any "inoperable" vehicles. I have 2 beetles, the first one is ugly but runs. The second beetle does not have an engine, the front two fenders are...

I am looking for a 3 inch body lift. I have a 75 standard beetle. All the ones i see are 150.00. Anybody know of any cheaper ones? TIA Shawn

awful quiet here.....so...what have you folks be up to? any work/improvements to your vw's?

I think when VWoA wanted to seperate from the aircooled years we should have embraced this. I have a newer Jetta at the shop that do to electrical problems is not worth fixing but the owner just won't listen. He already left it at my shop for a yr waiting to get the thousands it was sure to cost...

It has been a long, long time since I last visited here. Update: I sold the pristine '72 to a friend in need. I still have Micah's '58 and it is still looking good. Oh, and I still have the f*ucked up engine Jake Raby so9ld me eons ago - it is in storage along with the GTII-e.

Here's a new one for me; if anyone can tell me WTF, I'd be most appreciative. Did the brakes on the Ghia. Replaced rear grease seals, Torqued rear axle nuts to >215 ft. lbs. Checked and tightened link pins; some slop, planned rebush for soon. All's great. Had a little rumble in right rear,...

ARGH!! WHY?!?!?! The horrible bad luck with cars just won't leave me the F alone?!?!?!?!?!!! I gave it a little bit too much gas (Ok, a lot) and the ******* lumped, lurched, and blew to bits.

I need Dummy's Guide to Using a Grease Gun. Thought this would be simple, but I am stumped. The Wonderbus's front end is jacked up in the air, ready to have its steering bits lubed. The fittings have all been cleaned and are gleaming. I have a new pneumatic grease...
