I'm looking for a super nice aluminum wheel for my 98. It's the standard aluminum wheel that most all of them had. The part numbers are 1C0601025A and 1C0601025D It would probably have to be close to central PA to be worthwhile.
I tried to get an antique tag for my 98 NB this past fall. They told me I had to wait until the end of the year to apply for it. I just got it this week.
In early 1987 my brother and I took a tour of the Westmoreland PA VW plant. My brother took a few pictures inside before they told him that wasn't allowed. The plant closed in 1988 and after VW Sony made TV's there.
I bought my current 1998 New Beetle last spring, and it is a relatively early build with a VIN ending in 31485. I'm sure there have to be many earlier ones out there, so I'm curious what is still with us. Post what you have with a little info on the car. To make it interesting I'll send a little...
I'm trying to help customers be sure they are ordering the correct parts, mostly timing belt kits. That was always a good reliable way to check the engine code, but I haven't checked on a 15 myself. Do the still have them on the trunk floor and if so is it relatively easy to view?
I don't know what these springs are or who made them, they were on a 98 NB I had just bought. They are used unbroken and give about 11/2' to 2' of lift.
$60 shipped in the continental US.
I'm not trying to get extra fuel in. I have one here that the tank is collapsed damaging the fuel pump in the process. It does have an aftermarket fuel cap that was recently installed so that is suspect, but I can find any info on how the tank actually vents.
Does anybody have any experience with water in the fuel on one of these? What are the odds of cleaning it up without damage. The car starts and idles well, but has no power and a few fuel pressure codes.
