    Hello, I've recently bought a 1971 Super Beetle. It'll need some work but its gonna be worth it. Kne of the problems is that both of the seats do not move at all. Not one centimeter.

  2. Jetta / Bora MK5 / 2005–2010
    Hey guys So a couple of days ago my car went into limp mode after driving around. The gears on the dashboard started flashing and it was stuck in 3rd gear. I wasn't even able to reverse the car. Eventually it shuts off and the only way for it to start again is to let it cool down. I can drive...

  4. Golf MK6 / 2009 -2014
    Went to the petrol station today to fill up and found that the filler cover won't open! As far as I can tell it is a problem that it has not actually unlocked, rather than that it has unlocked but is stuck on the 'press to open' catch. The Owner Manual says that it can not be opened manually...

    I have a 1979 Beetle and I cannot open the front hood. When you push the button in I hear a click and nothing happens. It is stuck or not releasing the lock. Is there another way to get in or how can I get the lock unstuck ?

  10. Golf Owners Club
    Hi, my golf won't shift out of park. It is an automatic and doesn't appear to have an override. The usual brake, ignition, button doesn't allow the shifter to move. The solenoid makes a sound when the brake is depressed, while the car is running or key fully turned. I can't pull out the...
  11. Passat Owners Club
    What do you guys hook to for a Passat stuck in the snow with no tow hooks? And it really sucks that they don't let you rev up with tire tracking light is on, anyway to bypass this? Thanks for your help. I am sorry but no tow hooks is just plain stupid.
