Hi
I have recently been able to get a beetle as a first car. It had a full MOT and seemed preety good for the price so I snapped it up and thought it seemed ok. Unfortunatly the beetle is now sounding very sick and cuts out.
The problem is tempremental however does seem to be getting worse, at first i thoguht possibly an air-flow problem as the old owner had spaces on it so i put the spaces back on to no avail.
It seems to start acting up when there is low revs however constant use makes it cut out. It is also very underpowered it seems to struggle to climb speed when the problem starts until it dies and has to be towed and left overnight to recover.
I have had a look but am unsure I am hoping to see a mechanic much to my dismay as I am running out of ideas and need a deffinate answer in what I need as it is now dangerous to drive.
Any suggestions welcome or anyone willing to have a look lol
many thanks
