2003 vw beetle Why your oil light and temp flashing at the same time?
I had the same problem and replaced the coolant temperature sensor (about $30 if you can do it yourself) and it went away. No problems since. Worth it to try it, although it could be something more expensive. I read about this on other blogs.
VW told me i had to change the whole engine. HA on them.

What does eps mean in VW Beetle?
It means "electromechanical power steering." They put a little electric motor in the steering system that comes on when steering assist is needed, turns off when you don't need assist, and requires no power steering fluid.
If the EPS light on your dash is on, it means this system isn't working.
What do the 4 timing marks represent from left to right on a 1972 1600 cc dual port vw beetle?
That is something that is up in the air unless you are the original owner they could mean anything. You really need to buy the Bently manual to find out for sure. Pretty much all the pullys are interchangeable. My '75 Super has three and the Wifes '72 Super has two. The best thing to do would be to buy a degree wheel and if you want to keep the original pully then take the degree wheel off and put the old one back on after you time it. No guessing involved.
What kind of oil does a 1999 diesel volkswagen beetle take?
It takes a recommended diesel engine oil. Ask your dealer or car parts store.
I had the same problem with my 95 Ford E-150,
I went to the local Ford dealer they have a detailed print out of the parts needed.
If I remember right, you can't get just the cable anymore, you have to purchase a kit that includes the latch assembly also.
Might want to check the local salvage yard, cable shouldn't be more than 5 to 10 bucks,
hope this helps

Is there a manual opener for the gas filler door on a 2000 Volkswagon Beetle?
In the trunk area, passenger side you will notice a plastic round plug (about 4" diameter). Pop this out and behind the panel there will be a plastic coated cable (1/4" DIA.)
Grab hold of the cable and pull with down force and toward you. There will be a lot of resistance so be firm and keep pulling until the door pops open.

What is the light pink fluid leaking from the front passenger side of your volkswagen beetle?
Pentosin G12 coolant is pink. If it's leaking inside the car, that sounds like a heater core problem. If it's leaking on the ground, the passenger side is where the hoses and water pump are.
How do you change the rear spark plugs on a Mitsubishi Eclipse?
you have GOT to be talking about the third generation 3.0 liter v6. You have to remove the intake manifold. If you don't know what that is, it's that silver multi tube thing that is right in front of you when u pop the hood. If you don't know what u are doing, don't even attempt it. It SUCKS. take it to a garage, it will cost around 50 bucks or so, but it is way worth it. It's actually going to be 400+ dollars to do the spark plugs and wires from what I have heard.

What do you do when the automatic seat bealt is stuck and will not move on a Mazda mx3 1993?
Mazda has a recall on their seatbelts for some models for this reason. ask a Mazda dealer if your model has the seatbelt recall. I believe the 92 mx3 has a recall for the auto seatbelts, but i am not sure about 93. Look into it though and they might fix it for free!
