vibration damper (harmonic balancer) and the crankshaft timing chain sprocket to the crankshaft. Once the damper is removed, the crankshaft should not be rotated unless special tool spacer T10368 has been installed. The crankshaft timing chain sprocket and spur gear drive on the crankshaft have a coupling that must be seated correctly during assembly. Failure to install special tool spacer T10368 before rotating engine will cause the engine to skip time and bend valves.

Incorrect torque converter or flywheel/flexplate installation can result in transmission damage.

Read full bulletin

When installing an engine, flywheel or transmission, please follow the installation procedures outlined in ELSA. For the flywheel/flexplate, please be certain the correct shim is installed between it and the crankshaft (reference VWIQ120). When installing a torque converter, press the torque converter hub through the seal as far as the first stop. Turn the torque converter while pushing toward the transmission using light force, until the cut outs in the torque converter hub lock into the pump wheel plate. The torque converter slides in. The torque converter is installed correctly if it is easy to turn by hand and if it fits evenly in the transmission bell housing. Additionally, it should spin freely when the transmission bell housing bolts are torqued to the engine block, prior to installation of the flywheel to converter bolts (reference VWIQ121).

Beetle with Leather Sport Seats Passenger Occupant Detection System Control Module (J706)): Vehicles equipped with leather sport seats have been built with an incorrectly coded Passenger Occupant Detection System Control Module(J706) in the right front passenger location. If the leather seat gets wet and if a child restraint is secured on the right front passenger seat, the control module may not properly detect the child restraint. The right front passenger air bag will not be turned off as expected. The PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light will not illuminate, alerting the driver that the passenger airbag has not been turned off. The corrective action taken was to Replace Passenger Occupant Detection System Control Module (J706).

Experience Team has monitored the claims processed through the Carefree Maintenance (CFM) program from its inception. Their findings reveal that, in many cases, the first maintenance interval service (10K) has been claimed multiple times while subsequent maintenance interval services (20K and 30K), although being performed for the customer, have been submitted erroneously. It is crucial that Volkswagen of America receives accurate claim coding information regarding the Carefree Maintenance (CFM) Program. Accurate claim data enables Volkswagen to assist Dealers to improve their CFM penetration and customer return rates. In addition, it allows VWoA to assess the perceived benefits of the program to our customers. To assist Dealer Service Departments in determining the most appropriate service number and maintenance interval to use, Volkswagen has established the guidelines in this document.
