do turbo beetles have spoilers ?

Yep. Kinda like the Corrado. It's above the rear window.

Some do, not all.

Early ones wouldn't go up until 90mph but was changed about 2001.

Which ones do not? Turbo S?

TOE

GL 2.0L No GL TDI No GL 1.8T Yes GLS 2.0L No GLS TDI Yes GLS 1.8T Yes GLX 1.8T Yes TURBO S Yes

The TDI is a turbo. T=Turbo.

There is a hidden switch under the dash to raise and lower the spoiler.

TDIs do not have a spoiler.

Nice save! He was speaking of Turbo Beetles, not Beetles with turbos. It's a common way to separate it from the TDI Beetles and the 2.0 Beetles. But I see what you mean.

By the way, I've been meaning to ask... what is the Irish Math equation?

Thanks, TOE

No. Could you expain the difference between Turbo Beetles and Beetles with turbos?

Sure. The Beetle (as you know) has 3 engines, the Turbo, the TDI and the 2.0L. This is how most VW folks refer to them. Most people don't refer to the TDI as the Turbo Beetle. Certainly the TDI has a consequential turbo, but we refer to that car as the TDI. If you went to a dealership and asked to see their Turbo Beetles, they wouldn't direct you to the TDI's, but rather the 1.8T, which everyone refer's to as the "Turbo Beetle". So when the post came in referring to the "Turbo Beetles", he was almost surely referring to any "Turbo Beetle" or those with the 1.8L Turbo engine.

Thanks for the info on the Irish thing... that's been puzzling me for a while.

Must have been a newer one. Our 2000 model doesn't come out until about 90 mph.
