What kind of bulbs (part numbers) are in the hi-beam lights of a 2008 VW Jetta SE?

There are two bulbs in the light. There is one in the center and one off to the side. The one to the left on the passenger side is out. Where can I find a replacement. Is it easy to replace yourself? I am talking out the hi-beams, not the outer lights with the VW logo on them.What kind of bulbs (part numbers) are in the hi-beam lights of a 2008 VW Jetta SE?My wife's Jetta needed bulbs. So I went to Walmart. Looked up the info on their index. Bought bulbs. Got home . Wrong bulbs.

Then went to VW dealership. Got the correct bulbs. Just $3 more. Opened hood and replaced said bulbs. Not easy. But not especilly difficult either.

Plan B was to let dealer install them if I couldnt. I replaced them while at the dealer parking lot , just in case...

Most people recommend doing both, even if only 1 is out. They usually last abt the same length of time. Saves time....What kind of bulbs (part numbers) are in the hi-beam lights of a 2008 VW Jetta SE?
The Bulbs in the 08 Jetta are an H7 in halogen. If your car is under the comprehensive warranty the bulbs are covered still, so you don't have to waste your money. Check with the dealership they will tell you. We checked at the one I worked at they are covered. The Xenon bulbs are covered too.

How do I replace or bypass the auto gearbox Inhibitor Switch on a VW Sharan?

I assume this is the fault, the car will not start or even turn over, it would seem like im not in Park or Neutrel but I am, in fact I can move the gear selector up and down the gearbox without having my foot on the brake. I looked in some forums who say this fault is the Inhibitor Switch, but where is it or can I bypass it?How do I replace or bypass the auto gearbox Inhibitor Switch on a VW Sharan?The inhibitor switch is by definition a switch that allows the vehicle to be started in neutral or park only,for obvious reasons.Its not a good idea to bypass this switch but in order to prove the fault the switch is external mount with four wires,and the opposite two can be bridged to test Which two?? just try Dont leave it this way but have you checked the fuse and before joining make sure there is a live feed Stay luckyHow do I replace or bypass the auto gearbox Inhibitor Switch on a VW Sharan?The switch is located on the automatic gearbox, you will see a small switch with three or four wires going down to it.

Can I change the key blade on my VW key fob to a new matching key fob from Ebay?

My girlfriend has just bought a VW Beetle and the key is not great. There are Ebayers selling new key fobs with uncut blades but a local VW dealer told me that I would be unable to get a key blade cut as they only come from Germany. Is this true? Dealer charging 拢190.00 for new blade, fob and re-programming. Thought about buying one of Ebay but this may not be a good idea! Then thought about buying one of Ebay and then switching over old blade to new blipper but would this work? Does it need re-programming and if so can this be done without going through a VW Dealership as they are a rip off? Can anyone help please?Can I change the key blade on my VW key fob to a new matching key fob from Ebay?No you can't do that as the key would have to be coded for the immobiliser in the car and that is contained in the key fob and each lock and code is different for every car that's why the dealership was charging for re-programming. You need the right coded key for the car so the best way would be to get a new key made altogether for the car through VWCan I change the key blade on my VW key fob to a new matching key fob from Ebay?
The car's central locking/immobiliser will need to be reprogrammed to accept the new blipper.

Only an authorised (VW) dealer is allowed to do this, for security reasons.Can I change the key blade on my VW key fob to a new matching key fob from Ebay?if your just looking to replace it because the fob is all banged up, you could take the key apart, and use the new fob "shell"

I don't how you are going to do that , I have a ford and the key is enclosed in the ket fob I guess those german Have a different system than ours, good luck,
Yes you can buy one, you just need to make sure the long code of letters and numbers on the transponder is the same as the one you already have. You can reprogram the keys yourself too, it tells you how in the owners manual. You just put one in the ignition, and the "new" one in the door lock. The manual will explain the entire process to you!

What would be the likely cause of headlights not working on a 2001 VW Golf?

My head lights won't turn on. The day time running lights operate fine, the bulbs have been checked and are fine, the interior fuses (two of them, smaller ones) are fine. What else is there before the wiring? Where are the relays located?What would be the likely cause of headlights not working on a 2001 VW Golf?would say bad relay switch.What would be the likely cause of headlights not working on a 2001 VW Golf?Check to make sure that the off/on switch that controls your headlights is working. Try turning the switch so that the parking lights are on, then turn it so that you headlights come on. If your parking lights come on then you have a faulty switch.

    How do I activate the individual Opening feature on the doors of my VW Golf?

    I've just bought a 1999 Golf 1.6 S. It says in the manual that:

    "The central locking system can be modified to open only the driver's door or the front passenger side door without affecting other areas. Ask at a dealers for more detailed information on how to activate this system"



    Surely someone out there can tell me how to do this?

    I want to be able to set it so that the rear doors won't unlock when i open the front doors!!



    Cheers!How do I activate the individual Opening feature on the doors of my VW Golf?you can only set the remote function to unlock only the drivers door on one press of the remote, twice all the rest unlock or one press all doors unlock.

    Heres how to do it using a Vag com diagnostic reader access the central locking convenience system.



    46 - Central Convenience: -- KWP1281

    Only on vehicles with power windows. VAG-COM fine. There are numerous options/ features that can be set.



    Selective Unlocking:



    [Select]

    [46 - Cent. Conv.] (35 - Cent. Locking for manual window cars)

    [Recode - 07]

    Write down the existing coding for future reference.

    Enter 5-digit code from below

    [Do It!]



    Look at the existing Soft. Coding. If you have selective unlocking (press the unlock button on the remote once to open the driver's door, twice to open all the doors) the last digit of your coding should be an even number. To make all doors unlock, add 1 to the coding.



    So, if you have a 2-door 2002 GTI that is coded for selective unlocking (00064) add one to make it 00065 so that all doors unlock with one press of the unlock button.



    Lock/Unlock Horn/Flash:



    [Select]

    [46 - Cent. Conv.] (35 - Cent. Locking for manual window cars)

    [Adaptation - 10]

    Channel (03..08)

    Adaptation Value (1 = on, 0 = off)

    [Save]



    Channel 03 Auto Lock

    Channel 04 Auto Unlock

    Channel 05 Unlock, horn sounds

    Channel 06 Lock, horn sounds

    Channel 07 Unlock, turn signals flash

    Channel 08 Lock, turn signals flash

    I'm looking for an old VW camper. Usually called a 'hippie van" or something like that. Relatively cheap but in good condition. My friends and I want to take a road trip when we graduate high school and are looking for one. There will probably be 4-5 of us. Any answers would be greatly appreciated. :)Does anyone know where I can buy an old VW camper in Virginia?thesamba.com
