    I know you just bought the scan gauge II.
    But now there is a scan gauge III.
    I also have a beetle. Mine is a 1998 tdi. I have an upgraded turbo, clutch, injectors. I need to watch the temperature on mine also. These cars also have a fault with the electric fans not working. So we all need to watch the temperature.
    I like your channel because you drive your cars. Most people fix cars up for views, then sell them or give them away.
    I want to watch people who actually use their car.

      I have six cars and it's not my most popular car on the channel. Haha. So I've been focusing on the others. BUT... I do have a video I need to complete editing for the Beetle. I'll post soon.

    Have you encountered any problems with leaving it plugged in to the OBD socket all the time?

    • @rayregnogarage
      @rayregnogarage  Рік тому +2

      Nope. not at all. I think it’s intended to be plugged in all the time.

    Thanks for the info. I have an 05 Bettle. This is first car I've owned that did not have a temp gauge. My Bettle was given to me. It's in need of some repairs, but runs and drives. I've been trying to learn as much as I can about the car. Hopefully I can even learn to make minor repairs. Current task is to replace the air intake box. Mechanic was going to charge $500 for factory part plus labor. I was able to find one on Ebay for around $60. Now I'm trying to avoid paying for labor. Is this something you've done? I'd like to change this myself. Hoping you or anyone reading comments can provide some guidance. Thanks

      Awesome! The air box is easy. Watch this video on installing a short throw shifter. You have to remove the air box to get to it. ua-cam.com/video/hfVFzCp1N74/v-deo.html

      I have six cars. And the most popular is the Ranger... so that's why I do more videos of those. I have another Beetle video I haven't uploaded yet. Will edit and upload soon.

    I have a 2003 beetle as well 2.0L , i have al ready change timing belt, water pump, thermostat and it’s still overheating I don’t know what might be the problem with it now, and on a tight budget so I want to get it right this time. What should it be ? Thank you 🙏🏻

      Another question: should the fans start running as soon as you turn on the car ? I have already change the cooling fan control module and is still not working. A reply would be really appreciated

    • @rayregnogarage
      @rayregnogarage  3 роки тому

      I was about to ask about that module, too. Coolant temperature sensors are cheap things you can try. The vans don’t turn on right away, it has to get to a certain temp first. Did you burp the cooling system?
