My New Beetle Stalls First Thing in the Morning.
I just returned from the car dealer after leaving my Beetle there over night. In addition to the stalling problem the engine check light was on.

They replaced the temperature sensor and said that the problem is fixed.

I paid for the service and when they went to get my car out of the lot, it stalled 3 times.

Hmm.

Wasn't that the problem I brought it in to fix?

Nope.

They said that the extra gas in the fly wheel made the treadle go askew and after driving it around a little bit the extra gas will be flushed from the system's heads and that I shouldn't have the problem anymore.

We'll see in the morning.
