How would you remove an old rusted tailpipe that's broken off at the point where it goes into the muffler?

Heres how i eventually did it ... 1. Using needle nose locking pliers i held the pipe to the muffler so that it wouldnt get knocked back into the muffler. 2. Then using a cold chisel i made a gap between the muffler (the part that houses the pipe) and the pipe. I did this so that the pipe could be cut through without also cutting the muffler. 3. Then using a power saw with a metal cutting blade i cut through the tailpipe. 4. Then I was the able to crimp the edges of the pipe up and pull it out. 5. Have a beer for a job well done !!!

I am rewiring a 71 super beetle. So far I have connected one of those half as wide connectors on a red wire to the K lug on that little light. Black power wire coming from a green wire on the emergency flasher pin #15 should connecto to the little #15 lug.

A Blue wire should connecto to the little #61 lug. This wire comes from main harness and GEN warning light on speedo. One or all of these wires with tiny connectors should ne hanging around in there somewhere. Good luck.

How do you change spark plugs on a 2000 Toyota Solara?

IF YOUR 2002 SOLARA IS A 3.0L ITS FAIRLY SIMPLE. THE FRIST THREE ARE RIGHT IN FRONT OF ENGINE. THE THREE BLACK BLOCKS YOU SEE ARE FASTEN TO THE VALVE COVER WITH A 10MM BOLT. THOSE BLOCKS ARE THE COIL PACKS. REMOVE THE BOLTS THEN REMOVE A SMALL WIRE HARNESS WITH A SMALL SCREW DRIVE, ITS JUST A CLIP. PULL THE COIL PACK STRAIGHT UP AND THE PLUG IS UNDER THAT. DO THAT FOR EACH COIL PACK(3). THE OTHER THREE PLUGS ARE BEHIND THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. FOLLOW THE THREE WIRES FROM THE FRONT. THESE ARE NOT COIL PACKS JUST NORMAL PLUG WIRES. IT IS TIGHT IN THE BACK BUT CAN BE DONE WITH OUT REMOVING THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. I HAVE BIG HANDS AND I DID IT FINE. REMOVE THE WIRES FROM THE VALVE COVER BY PULLING THEM STRAIGHT UP THEN THE PLUG WILL BE UNDER EACH WIRE.

How do you clear airbag light on 2000 beetle Popularity 4 could be the problem with a 2001 VW beetle if the turn signals aren't working in?

I have had the same problem with my 2000 Beetle. The only way to reset is to have the dealer do it. so far they have replaces the wiring harness in the drivers seat for the side airbags and several other components under the drivers seat. It seems to be a problem only when the seat is moved. One mechanic says the seat is moved too much( that is crazy i think) I realize it sounds a bit nuts but i have been dealing with the airbag light in and out of the dealer since I purchased it in 2003. Good luck with that one. If the light is on it will not pass a safety for resale. I would suggest trade it in you will get no where with Volkswagen.

How do you change brake light on VW Caddy 55 plate?

Pull off vertical trim on inside edge of light unit to uncover 2 retaining screws for assembly...undo screws & remove light unit.

It can feel quite tight as though it won't come off...... but it will come off with gentle persuasion.

When you first look at trim it looks like part of light unit but it is definetly removable.

when you undo the 2 large screws you then have to slide the light out as it's on a small runner. i.e undo the screws then slide the whole light out the side of the vehicle....don't pull it towards the back or you will break the plastic runner.

Then you just undo the back two small screws on the back of the console and change the bulb.

Takes 5 minutes tops when you have done it once or twice....Good luck!!

How do you get air out of the cooling system on 98 VW Beetle?

You shouldn't have to worry about it. With the engine still cold, just let it idle in the drive way with the expansion tank cap off. Eventually, the car will cycle the coolant and the air will exchange places with whatever coolant is in the expansion tank. Then top off the expansion tank, let it idle a little longer and see if the level gets any lower.

How do you replace the Drivers Side mirror on a 1998 VW Beetle?

If the metal pivot arm is not broken you can just replace the glass and plastic housing. To remove the glass you tilt the glass down towards the floor and use a wide plastic or wood bladed object to prise from behind, the glass should pop off from its clips. Remember to catch it if its not damaged. To remove the housing once the glass is out you need to look underneath the mirror unit, there you will find a small plastic bung, gently prise it out and then use a long small flat bladed screwdriver straight up inside the hole and lever towards the front of the car whilst lifting straight up on the plastic housing, this should then lift off. To replace just slot the new housing on and click into place then fit the glass back, remember to connect the wires first if it is a heated glass.

If the metal pivot arm is broken then you will find the remaining screws behind the plastic trim inside the vehicle.

If the keyless entry buttons on your new Beetle do not work is it hard to replace the battery?

If the remote does not work after battery replacement, you can reset by doing the following... This process requires two keys. Place one in the ignition, and turn on system (without actually starting), close door and lock with other key. Press unlock on fob, wait 3 seconds, press unlock again. Unlock with key and test remote. It should work then.

You need to take your car back to the dealership,the code may be incorrect or needs to be set again,changing the battery will not help if you do not have the codes re-set.Sometimes even if you drop your keys you may need it re-set,it depends on how sensitive the remote is.

go to napa, and buy a battery............... it looks like a watch battery. The keyless remote comes apart and you slip the new battery right in! it's very simple!!!!! It worked just fine in my beetle............

Check to make sure that the bulb is installed properly double filamented - smaller is for signals - larger for parking light Check the socket for corrosion, power and ground.
