Why does my citi golf start up but does not rev?
check the timing. if it is running to rich, every time you give it gas you are going to flood the engine. if that is not he problem check the mass airflow sensor. it should be right after the intake filter box and before the intake manifold. if the sensor is stuck closed it will tell the computer to add more gas making it run rich and you will have the same problem. if that is not it check the O2 sensor. it should be right after the catylitic converter on your exhaust pipe. with this its the same thing. it could be stuck closed...... in a more extreme case, one or all of your intake valves might not be seating correctly. i would then take it to a shop that specializes in working on volkswagons.
How do you turn off the air bag light on a 1998 VW Beetle?
By having the SRS system repaired. Time for a trip to the dealer. Do not attempt to repair yourself. Serious injury can occur. remember tho it is under warentee for life as long as you have not been in an accedent
Follow-up: I don't believe this is warrantied for life in my experience. Here's what causes this issue on Beetle side airbags:
The receiving side of the seat-belt buckle - the side where the metal buckle plugs in - has 2 thin wires going into its base on a plug. These activate the side air bags in a collision. There is a wiring harness under the seat which connect them to the side air bag. In non-collision situations, these tend to separate for the following reasons: 1. They are too flimsy and normal use makes them separate. 2. The wiring harness under the seat is too short. This means that when you access the back seat, which causes the bucket seats to lift up and lean forward, it puts stress on the wires, causing them to separate and the side airbag light to come on. I had one repaired by the dealer at a cost of about $400. I never use the back seat, but after the repair, the first time I pulled the seats back to clean the rear leather seats, the side airbag light came on again. It may have been the passenger seat that caused it this time. The original poster is right: You can't fix this by splicing the wires back together because of extremely narrow tolerances on the electrical impulses. In my car, the broken wires did not cause the airbag to deploy. I am guessing that there are other sensors that have to receive signals in a collision situation. The dealer charges about $100 just to diagnose the problem. The fix is to replace the receiving end of the buckle and the harness. In my case, I could see the broken wires separated from the tiny plug at the base of the drivers seat where it entered the seat belt base, but the wires can break internally where the damage can't be seen. VW has a analytical computer program called VAG which can diagnose this problem. If you don't want to go to a dealer, many German car repair shops have the software. it also works on AUDI. This is different from a standard emissions OBII tester, which only checks emissions codes. You can buy the VAG software to use with a laptop, but as the original poster says, airbags aren't something for shade-tree mechanics to play with. This is just another example of VW problems that should have been subject to recall, but have not.
How do you replace the bulb on your 2005 vw golf heater control?
remove the center knob which controls the fan speed. pull straight out using pliers but be careful not to damage the knob itself. The one bulb in the center lights all the climate control dials. Get a new bulb at vw and replace. Similar size bulbs from parts stores dont work cause the body of the bulb is smaller than the vw bulbs so the don't stay in place well.

Adding coolant to your 99 vw golf gti?
ONLY GET VW COOLANT or be dumb and put cheap stuff in and pay for it later. NEVER put green coolant in. Will destroy all coolant parts. It will rot them. Happened to me. I had to replace it all.
as with most cars you should almost always follow vehicle manufactures recommendations. I'm lucky, I have a 20 years plus VW dealer tech in the family and he warned me of this when I bought my 1998 2.0 GTI. The same is true when adding power steering fluid. In high school auto shop I was taught that regular ATF fluid was acceptable to use in place of power steering fluid. not the case any longer.
