Question:
I have an old model VW Beetle that over-heats most of the time. I wonder what could be wrong with it. I took it to a mechanic but he changed the coils and said it would be better. So far no significan improvement. What could be the problem and how do I fix it? What other problems do I anticipate in this sweet model of a car?

Check and see if the fan belt is slipping. Check with the engine off and cold. It is air cooled so there is not much to check.Vauxhall omega cd2.5 where will you find the dip stick for the gearbox?

It might be one of you belts. My brother's kept overheating constantly and he discovered that one of his belts needed to be replaced. He replaced it and it stopped overheating.everything in my car works, but it wont start. what is worng?
I take it we're talking about the air-cooled 4. It takes all of its cooling from the fan over the top. One custom modification has been to use stand-off hinges that open the top of the bonnet, or scoop air in.What's another name for "premium gas"?
well from experiance as a machanic from the old school . you need to take it to a vw shop and have a mechanic an older one if possible when some people take out an engine they have to remove all the sheet metel around it it is there for a reason but the the almighty mechanic just leaves most of it off because he forgot how it went on a dud in the shop i worked at did just that and it was towed back the same day and he had to figure it out you can look at it but you won't see the problem these are cooling fins and they direct air to the motor so have some one smart and at a vw shop or at a shop that specialize in forgion cars good luck daleMore Questions & Answers ...
