Re: 2000 beetle stalls
Sounds like the brake booster mechanical vacuum pump. Its a valve under the intake manifold that routes engine vacuum to the brake booster. It allows the use of power brakes. If your pedal is really stiff I'l have them check that out. Since its a 00 and a 1.8t I can almost guarantee that all the breather hoses and vacuum lines under the intake a cracked and broken.. its about 450.00 in parts..
