Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Great looking 2002 VW New Beetle “Rare Snap Orange Color Concept Car” 1.8 liter Turbo 150 hp, Leather, Air, Sun Roof. Car is good shape inside and out has two small dents in the passenger door (see pictures) and the usual minor chips in the paint that you would expect in a 152,000 mile vehicle. I bought this car 2 ½ years ago, it has been serviced regularly and had the recall work done for the coils and sunroof. It recently started going into limp mode and the diagnosis was a bad throttle body so I had it replaced with a new one which fixed the problem for awhile, however the problem returned. I have taken the car back to the shop and the mechanic can clear the codes and reset everything and the car will run perfectly for a few weeks then back to limp mode. This may be an easy fix for someone who knows about these cars, I do not know and don’t have time or resources to mess with it. The secondary air pump is also noisy but I hear that is pretty common. I bought a new computer for the car thinking that might be the problem and will include it. 8-10-2011 had mechanic do a throttle body adaptation, cleared codes and checked wiring harness and the car is running good right now. Please feel free to ask any questions.
