seized engine help by
hetamila
Hi,
I'm new to Volkswagens and recently got my hands on a 1962 beetle. I got it
from my brother who owned it for a year before deciding he wasn't going to
do anything to it. Anyway, the guy who had it before him supposedly drove it
up until the day he parked it to begin fixing it up. Since he...

hardware per spec. And wouldn't you know it, I put transmission oil and two
days later it started leaking from both rear wheels. Kind of slow on the

IRS A arm bush by
Tony Bennett
Hi
Washers. the manual says to take careful note on disassembly of the type
and position and number of washers on the A arm bush bolt.
I wont admit to random disassembly (not yet anyway) but lets assume that
the PO didn't put it together right.
So a drawing, picture or some wisdom please.

Lorem Ipsum
Gas is only $2.99.99 here, but I've had two inquires already about the Bug I

students who aren't really quite old enough to remember that these things
are not the MPG champs they seem to think they are.
WTF? I've been...

Sunroof Failure by
Bugzai
Aircoolies,
SB 74 Sunbug. Love the mechanical nature of Bugs, which is why I need to
make sure I'm prepared when it breaks down. Always wondered what the most
common single point of failure is for the sunroof. I'm guessing it's the
cable (I'm assuming there is one up there) that allows the pulley...

Heated Rear Window by
Juper Wort
Folks.
I fitted a proper heated window to my 73 flat screen 1200 a couple of years
ago, and routed the wires wherever they lie.
I spotted in a catalogue this morning that they should disappear into the
rear pillars through a grommet. I found the blanking plug for this hole. Now
which way do they...

Something scary happened today by
Tim Rogers
.............I was driving home when a car started tailgating me. Usually
it's a SUV that does this sort of thing but today it was an Acura coupe that

Anyway, when I started exiting onto one of those 270 degree off ramps...

Christian M. Mericle
Hi,
Is it possible to put a Type 2 motor and manual transmission into a
Type 4 that used to have an automatic transmission?
If so, is it a complex conversion or fairly easy?
