Volkswagen New Beetle 1.8 Turbo--- on 2040-cars
Lawndale, California, United States
I am the second owner of a 2003 New Beetle with 59,000 miles on it. The
previous owner was an elderly gentleman from Ventura who putted around
town and kept it garaged. This car is a GLX with just about every option
available on it. It has AC, sunroof, cruise control, heated leather
seats, power outlets and a remote 5 disc CD player just to name a few.
It has an APR performance program ($500) which boosts the horsepower from 150
to 209. This can be removed and put back to stock by a few by inputs via
the cruise control lever.
Once you get use to the extra power, you'll never go back. I've added a boost gauge and a Euro light switch. The Euro light switch
eliminates the daytime running lights.and lets you control the
headlights and driving lights independently. The interior and exterior
are in great shape. Every once in a while the drivers door lock
doesn't respond to the remote, usually after the car has been sitting,
tap the door and it then works. The spoiler just above the rear window will actuate while driving above 45 mph. It retracts below 10 mph. There is a switch below the steering wheel that will raise it while not moving. There are two key remotes and one valet key. The owner's manual is in good shape and is in one of the pictures along with the keys. The timing belt has been changed within
the past year. The oil has been changed about every 5,000 miles with
Mobil 1 "European blend" 0W-40 synthetic. I am retired with 4 other cars. This Beetle has not been driven much in the past year. Time to offer it to someone else...Good Luck!!! Call me at 310-679-5050...Dave

VW Golf Sportsvan succeeds Golf Plus in Frankfurt
Sun, 08 Sep 2013
Just ahead of this week's Frankfurt Motor Show, Volkswagen has announced the world premiere of its Golf Sportsvan, a near-production concept that succeeds its Golf Plus. VW describes this compact family car as "one of the most versatile vehicles of the compact class," noting that it offers a mix of hatchback and minivan features in a sporty package.
That sportiness comes from the Sportsvan's styling (perhaps more sleek wagon than minivan) and performance features it shares with the Golf GTI - including the XDS+ electronic differential lock, which is integrated into the Electronic Stability Control system to improve agility. At the same time, the Sportsvan's six engine options, which include a turbodiesel, are up to 19-percent more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
VW announces recall of 26,000 2014 models with 1.8T engines
Tue, 22 Apr 2014Volkswagen has followed up on a stop-sale order from earlier this month, announcing a voluntarily recall of 26,400 vehicles that are powered by the brand's 1.8-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The new mill replaced the despised 2.5-liter five-cylinder in the Jetta, Passat, Beetle and Beetle Convertible last year. Weirdly, though, of the 26,452 units covered in the recall, only 1,655 are customer vehicles.
According to VW, the affected models were built between February 1 and April 6 of this year, and feature bad O-ring seals in the transmission oil cooler. Apparently, the faulty O-rings could cause a fluid leak, as they won't seal between the oil cooler and transmission. VW is blaming a material change from a supplier for the problem.
There have been no fires, injuries, accidents or fatalities relating to this issue, which VW will be fixing free of charge. Customers will need to report to dealers to have the O-rings replaced.
YouTube's Super Bowl commercial buzz list dominated by automakers [w/videos]
Thu, 31 Jan 2013After Sunday's big game, YouTube will be the place to watch every commercial that you missed when you left your seat for an emergency guac refill or, as we say in Cleveland, took the Browns to the Super Bowl. That makes YouTube the nation's water cooler on Monday, and it's got some preliminary stats to share in the lead up to kickoff.
As you know, Super Bowl advertisers, particularly automakers, like to endlessly tease their big budget commercials in the weeks before the game, many times revealing them outright days in advance. Because of this, YouTube can tell us which commercials have been viewed the most so far, and their top five list is all automakers.
Kaley Cuoco appears to have been a good investment for Toyota, as her ad for the RAV4 has garnered the most YouTube views - six million and counting - among Super Bowl commercials so far. Second place goes to Mercedes-Benz, though not its actual Super Bowl commercial, but rather the teaser for it. You know, the one with Kate Upton and the car washing, which is up to 5.6 million views. Third place is Audi's Prom commercial (3.3M views), fourth goes to Volkswagen's slightly controversial Get In, Get Happy ad (3.3M views), and the fifth and final spot is bookended by the teaser video for Kaley Cuoco's commercial (3.2M views). You can watch all five in order below.
