Ok I am half way through and ….. Nope !

Wrong. There’s no way that the manufacturer put this dash together inside the car.

Did anyone get a airbag light turn on after doing this job?

Wow mejor que se quede sin funcionar 😂

I prefer sports coupes with a manual but this is why I don't want a beetle of the 2000s and many others: the heater core behind the dashboard.

That’s a lot of work. How many hours to remove and replace everything?

Спасибо! Очень полезное видео.

God help me. I’m getting ready to do this on a 2005 VW Beetle convertible. This is not going to be fun. But not paying a shop $1800 to do a 52 dollar part.

You should not kneel on heated seats if possible or you will be getting a comeback for it worked when I brought it here ,just sayin

Good job! I'm going a little farther and opening the HVAC case so I can repair the blend doors... Big dang holes in them, Great idea VW! Lets put holes in wind diverters!

Thanks for your video. Didn't you need to lift the car to replace the heater core?

fuq that

No thanks, mine gets warm but not hot. I will dress warm and use the bum warmers

Doing this project now😢

Boss Man!!! I was only doing the blend door without cutting anything but this helped me a lot on the basic removal of the dash. Thanks for the video!

"This is not complicated." Hahah, if this happens to ours, it's going to the scrap yard.

Wouldn't it be easier to pull the engine and cut it out through the firewall?....kidding obviously, but DAMN!

Did the fix you said to do and it stopped. thank you

WWowww , no inventes!! y que al final no era esa la falla!!! Quet trabajal, felicidades, es paciencia y mucho profesionalismo!!!

Thank you so much for making this video!! ❤ i can follow the time lapse, only wish you had multiple angles! Still extremely helpful.

What kind engineering thought was put into this? Lol

nice video!!!!! thanks

I think there must be a way to unbolt the top of the dash, drill some holes in just the right place to move the dash bar, and drop the glove box to make room for the HVAC to drop. Anyways, I was stripping mine for a roll cage so I just used a sawzall for whatever had more than 3 screws.

why would a heater core need to be replaced? how would i know?

i have to change the AC evaporator core, is it the same steps?

Ugh, I am right in the middle of this. Thanks for sharing. I laughed watching you find that last screw in the middle of the plastic frame under that middle duct....same as me.

Wife’s car has no heat. I guess it’s a summer car now. Every second plastic tab disintegrates when you remove all that stuff. What a nightmare.😡

wait a minute... is there a reason you couldn't just dismantle the upper and lower right side to access that heater box!? I'm gonna watch a few more videos!

lol... wow! I helped build Trident and 688 class nuclear powered submarines in the 70's and 80's and after watching this I now understand how they lost 2 world wars! it's like you just wanna slap every German engineer involved designing the location and accessibility of this heater core!! lol haha!

Wow

Thanks for the video, just did it today because it is my job. I know why you speed it up, because you don’t want people to hear you swear lol. It’s a pain!

Excellent

This is beyond nightmare level.

I did this last Summer. Took me 12 hours but I was able to split the box, not touch the A/C and leave the steering wheel alone. Worst job ever but I taped up the blend doors and the heat is great now.

There’s no way this side of the good Lords Heaven I’m going to do this, or pay somebody to do this. I will just figure out how to setup a Hair dryer to work off the cigarette lighter, AND if I can’t get that to work I will set a grate on the passenger seat and cover it in aluminum foil and build a fire, and use it also as a grill, that way I can have the best of both worlds aye?

Thanks for showing me what I am NOT going to do if the core goes bad.

If i took my car into the shop how much do you think it will cost to fix this exact problem ?

The engineers need a swift kick in the sack.

Is this the evaporator?

Great Video! Thanks You!

Wow wow wow my friend, thanks a lot doing this video ! My heater is broken and a friend will change it for me ! How many hours for all the work ? 10 hours ? Thanks again !

Omg plz tell me your in NYC my car is going no through this and I Don’t Know what to do!

That is a great overview! Did you happen to note your time start to get the box out and time for in and out (complete - service)?

Great video. I need to do it soon. I have seen some videos where they split the box instead to avoid draining the AC system. Any reason why you did not split the box? Also after doing this job is there anything you would do differently? Is the steering wheel absolutely neccessary to take off?

Awesome video! I definitely do not want to take on this project, but thank you for the detail on how to do it.
