Anyone know if the 2005 beetle 02e dsg cap is the same as all the others. I am wanting the billet finned cap and no company that makes it even knew there was a dsg available in a mk4. They all have listed 2006 and newer. I know the filter numbers are the same. But can’t find anything on stock...

I had replaced my pd lift pump about a year ago, it was the factory one and was dead. I ended putting a uro parts lift pump in it and it is at the point now where it doesn’t put out consistent pressure/volume. I know uro makes some cheap stuff, but I have always had good luck from there hard...

My bew has thrown the p2196 code every once in a while for a year or so. Maybe every other month. Now it throws the code at every start. I had read somewhere the oxygen sensor only operates the egr system. Is that correct? Do I need to replace the o2 sensor since my egr is deleted. Or does it...

Update: the car has good power with half throttle, it is the second half that makes a lot of racket but doesn’t speed it up. If I run car at 4K rpm for 2 or 3 miles the car picks power back up for a short time. Does that sound like a sticking turbo? This past week I did a oil change on my...

Sorry for the long post,but here is the issue. I have a 2005 beetle with a bew, my father has an identical 2004 beetle bew and there is a definite power difference. His car is way stronger, I has checked torsion value on both, and they are -.5, neither car shows reflashes in vagcom, all boost...
