Now my 2013 Beetle Dash Gauge is STILL! - Many Thanks!

Very good product. I was having an annoying plastic-on-plastic squeaking noise from the oil/stopwatch/turbine gauge on my 2013 Beetle's dash. Of course, the Donaldson, NY VW service crew couldn't hear the problem, and based everything I heard on things that might have been in the glove box. The sound was indeed coming from the sensors and appeared to be aimed at my face. Finally enough, the noises continued, and the memory of the VW repairman's dismissive, condescending reaction prompted me to seek help online. Luckily I found a VW car owners website with a step by step solution to take out the radio, remove the hidden screws, remove the sensor and then coat all the parts with more HushMat. When I assembled the car parts, the squeak was gone! Now I can enjoy the sounds of the engine turning on the gears and I don't have to play music to cover up the old plastic wheeze. I no longer have to hold the sensor to keep it still - thanks!

Pros
  • Body and trim
Cons
