Jim, thank you for your very good advice. You saved me from a lot of heartache. I took out all the bulbs in the #2 fuse circuit, and hooked up the multi-tester to the fuse terminals. When I clicked the headlight switch, the meter was reading voltage, so there was definitely a short somewhere. As...

Sorry guys having problems

Been working on my daughter's 72 Super - took it up for safety inspection/license and it passed (plus having it on the lift, got to make sure all was ok underneath). On the way home, was slowing down from 60 to 0...around 40-45 the front started to shake (kinda more than I would like) - but I...

Hello all. I have just bought a 72 bay pickup (actually bought and got it home this time ! ) I am wondering how easy it is to put a type 25 (vanogon?) diesel engine in ? I am looking to get improved fuel economy / power / heat - but mainly increased mpg. Cheers

I have a 1975 bus and I'm looking for parts (a few body parts, exhaust and fuel parts, etc) Of course the internet is the obvious answer but I'm wondering if anyone can give me some advice on buying parts in Mexico. On prior trips there I've seen quite a few 1970's-looking vans, but they would...

Hi, My '70 Beetle (new purchase in May) is running well, but I've noticed lately that even inside, with the heat off and the windows open, that my clothes smell like exhaust after I drive.

Okay, in the never ending fix/replace/drive/fix/replace/fix/Drive cycle of owning this wonderful bus... So I am driving down from the mountains in the COLD. All of a sudden I here a pop and a windy noise inside the bus. I pull over and notice that my Pop Top (Older style Opens with hing on front...

I got a new wiper switch for my '77 std beetle that includes an extra switch position (which I will be hooking up to an intermittent relay), and a switch for a washer pump. The extra switches are connected via extra terminals in the connector at the column. My connector has space for the terminals,...

Went to another car show yesterday. Great show with about 130 cars. I did not get anything but a 67' VW Beetle with a ton of add on options took 2nd in the 60's stock class. I could not have imagined this a few years ago against detroit iron. (it was the only vw...

Help! I cannot find (no, the stupid book doesn't show/tell me) where the flasher is for my 72 Beetle. Anyone know of an online manual with pictures, or, can someone simply tell me where it is located? Many thanks! Jim

Hi all, Im about to pick up my new golf 4motion this saturday. Its Y plate 2001 model. And was wondering, does anyone know if it is easy to change the fake wood dash bits round the radio and central, to something a bit more tasteful. Such as basic plastic, or even a metallic effect. And if...
