Hi my cap cracked on my beetle stater recently. I was wondering if anyone knew anywhere in the south northants near banbury area where I could get one, that or quickly online Thanks

hi... 1st post here. Been the first time owner of a VW for less than a week having just bought a 1991 T25 2.1i automatic with an Autohomes (Kameo) camper conversion. Too late for pre-purchase advice ;) but after starting perfectly at viewing, test drive, collection, next couple of days etc it...

Need to buy a new starter for my 65 bug, its on 12V, which starter is there any noticeable difference between the OEM and cheaper motor you can buy from machine7?

I am now onto repair wiring my "expected year of manufacture 1974) super beetle with 13420589** chassis number. When I took the bug off the road some 30 years ago over 4 house moves and 3 remote garages a lot of wiring has gone missing. Anyway. I have worked out most of the missing bits...

Hi, My van won't start and am trying to work out what I need to do to get it running again. I'm pretty sure it's just a problem with the starter motor as I've tried putting the key in the ignition, turned the lights on, turned the key, lights dim and the starter motor makes a brief noise before...

Hi I need a starter motor for a 2.5 petrol '94 T4 caravelle. Anyone got one or know of a 'velle being broken?

i bought a 74 van with a recon engine (500 miles) and a lovely paint job to replace my 76 tatty and worn out van, got it nearly home, about 200 miles when it started popping and spluttering i had stopped a lot and not exceeded 55 so i was a little suprised when it stopped at a busy junction and...

Hi Im looking for a starter motor for my '72 1300 beetle as mine isn't playing nice. give me a pm if anyone has one thanks

Going to fit a high torque starter tonight with a new bush (not sure this is needed on an IMI 101?) How much if any, grease (and what sort) should I use? cheers all

Afternoon all. Our bay's starter motor was a goner so we exchanged in at GSF today. I replaced the bush with the one that came with the new starter. I'm sure that I've got the bush straight in the bellhousing but the new starter just won't fit in the bush. It did originally fit but was...

Evening techy peeps. :) Problem I have at the moment is that my starter motor appears to be sticking. It's always done it on and off for years. Absolutely fine one minute and then won't crank the next. When I turn the key to second position I just get dimmer dash lights. Girlfriend wasn't very...

:eek: Hi all, came across a weird thing yesterday, came back to the bug with shopping, put key in ignition and turned it over, car didn't fire up, released the key but the starter kept turning the engine over, i even turned the ignition off, but it was still turning the engine??? Kept going for...

I have a 1964 Beetle with a 1600 twin carb engine and a 12V conversion. The starter is practically new, the engine has only down a 1000 miles and the battery is brand new. The alternator is producing comfortably over 12V back into the battery, yet, when starting, it sounds like the battery is...

STARTING PROBS Hi, I have a 73 Bay. Recently the starter has begun turning slowly on start up. Ive checked the batteryand terminals- all OK. Before I take out the starter motor, is there anything else I have obviously missed? Also can anyone tell me the easiest way to get the starter motor out...

Got my rebuilt engine put in the buggy at the weekend but the damn thing wont start! I rebuilt the old stock 1300 as a 2054cc. Put it in with no plugs in and cranked it over on the starter until the oil pressure light went out. I then put the plugs in and wired it all up, but the starter...

Right went round to try and help a friend today, he fitted a starter motor tother day, but when you turn the ignition to start, it does what its meant to and spins over but when you let go of the key the starter is still spinning over an wont stop till you take battery terminal off, i took the...

right i give in searching the net for pics of starter motor. new starter motor installed 2 weeks ago now the car wont start. i'm convinced its a loose wire but i cant find any pictures anywhere of how it should all look. 12v 76 beetle fyi. can anybody post up a pic of how it should look?

I haven't started my bay for a few months but when i attempted to today the starter just makes a rapid clicking noise. :( Tried a different starter and it did exactly the same thing, click, click, click, click, click. Checked all the wiring, replaced any connections that looked dodgy and it...

Hi how do i go about this? I have a 30hp motor with a 6 volt starter motor, but i want the car to have 12v electrics. Is there some kind of voltage step down on the market i could use to step down the voltage from 12 to 6v? Where might i get one of these? I have already wrecked one flywheel...

I am going to be putting in a 12 volt starter on my bug which has a 6 volt starter atm. I know that you need to change the starter bush, and clearence the bellhousing. I can clearence it easily enough, I have access to quite a large die grinder which can take some serious meat off.. and i...
