Check Engine Light Flashing

The check engine light flashing on your 2010 Volkswagen New Beetle is a signal of an active misfire or a condition that can damage the catalytic converter if driven long-term. A flashing light typically means immediate attention is required: misfires can allow unburned fuel into the exhaust stream, overheating the catalyst and creating far more expensive repairs than a timely fix. At Larry H. Miller Volkswagen Lakewood in Lakewood, CO, we prioritize safety and preservation of vehicle value. Our technicians will perform a rapid diagnostic scan, inspect ignition components, fuel delivery, and the battery/charging system to rule out electrical causes. If a battery, ignition coil, spark plug, or fuel injector is at fault, we replace with OEM parts to ensure fit and longevity. We highlight transparency in estimates and explain how our approach often yields lower total cost of ownership compared with patchwork repairs. Check our service specials and schedule service online to secure quick attention and protect your New Beetle’s drivetrain.
