2001 Volkswagen Beetle review from North America
"I love the car, but hate the crayola smell"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have a crayola smell in the car.
The check engine light is lit.
General comments?
I have a 2001 Volkswagon Beetle, it is a standard and also a diesel. I purchased it last year and it has a bad crayola smell in the car. I had a mechanic spray the AC with a cleaner/sanitizer. He said my filter in the AC was really dirty so I replaced it. He said they may have dust in the dashboard area and he may need to take the dash apart. I just read your website and found out that someone had the dashboard removed and cleaned with no luck. Has anyone found a solution to the problem yet? I am wondering if anyone can test the car and see if it is toxic!
