Jetta 2005, gas pedal not responding,,sometimes it

This is a "Drive by wire" car on the throttle. There is no accelerator cable, it has an electrical sensor that tells the engine computer when you accelerate.

Sounds like the sensor is going bad. Take it to a shop and get it replaced.

I cant get 2nd gear

The treansmission could be low on fluid, might need to change the filter, or the transmission itself. I would check fluid and filter first.

MY CAR WONT SHIFT OUT

It could be several things.. It could be the modulator.. That is what tells it when to shift and is controlled by both electronic and vacuum..
It could be a bad vacuum line..
If you are not really technical and have experience - it makes allot of sense to bring it to a trani shop.. Allot of them will offer free estimates..

Good luck

Want to replace batt. on

Hi There,

Replacing the battery of a Jetta is different than most cars.

Under the hood look for a plastic cover with a light bulb picture on it, located between the battery case and the front grill. It has 4 screws that needs to be unscrewed. You would notice 2 pieces, in some cases you may have to remove both.
To separate the 2 pieces, twist it slightly and move one piece up and the other down.
Unscrew the large bolt on the middle front of the battery casing.
Have the metal piece that holds the battery removed.
Remove the battery but keep in mind that at its back it is being held by a plastic lip piece. The new one needs to slide under it.

To put the new one in, do above in reverse.

hi ateliergab,

Smoke from the vents after upper heater hose replaced

Smoke through the vents indicates a heater core issue. If you are losing coolant and / or getting coolant inside the car (check the floor boards) this would tend to confirm a heater core. Best of luck to you.

The a/c hasn't been working

well i believe the a/c pulls quite a bit of (load) power so that may be the pulling. Your rheostat may be bad internally or your compressor may be shot like a hole in it does you reservoir have any coolant in it any more? Is there green/blue fluid on the ground/sprayed all over the hood. Is that cap in the very front of the engine (coming from coolant reservoir) on tight or loose dont open it after running it its very hot.

I went out to my 2000 Volkswagen Beetle 1.8 liter turbo this morning and it would not start. I didn't hear my fuel pump so I checked the fuses and number 28 fuse is fine and number to fusible link under the hood is fine. Any ideas on why I don't have any power two number 28 fuse or the fuel pump?

Did you actually check the power supply to the pump or just assume there is no power because the fuse was ok?

If there really is no power in the fuel pump circuit it might be a function of the immobiliser to cut the power until it is disarmed but if there is power, proved by the use of a test lamp, the pump is probably defective.

In depth troubleshooting isn't practical without reference to a wiring diagram.

2007 Volkswagen rabbit,2.5,dub series. Car ran fine I changed the battery, and now it turns over but no start,checked the fuel pressure had little to none,put a multi meter on fuel pump,no power to fuel pump at all

A memory saver when changing the battery is a good idea and helps avoid such problems.

The most likely cause of the problem is the vehicle immobiliser...

Own a manual 1987 Volkswagen Cabriolet.Replaced the battery and everything turns on electrically except when starting the engine will not even crank over at all. What are my options to fix problem?

First go back to the battery and check the cables, make sure they're all there and that they're clean and tight. If you changed the battery because it didn't start you probably have a bad starter. If you can get to the starter make sure to stay clear in case the car moves then tap the starter with a hammer while someone turns the switch to start if it goes the starter need to be replaced if it doesn't start use a test light to check for voltage at the starter battery stud then move the light to the smaller wire marked "S" and have someone turn the switch to start if the light lights The starter is bad if no light. The problem will be the ignition switch or the neutral safety switch or transmission range switch.
I hope this helps. Take care.

Where can I get a fuse box diagram for a 2013 Volkswagen Beetle convertible?

Handbook supplied with the vehicle is the most reliable source of fusebox specs.

Repair manuals and other sources tend to provide aggregate information barely allowing for changes made due to territory and trim level.
