| Hi, my name is Faith and I am new to volkswagons. I just got my first 69 bug. I don't know anything about them, but I have loved them since I was little. I do have a question, where is the best place to get my oil changed and what kind of oil do I use? I've never changed my own oil, so I need all the advice I can get.
I look forward to meeting all of you someday.
TIA,
Faith |

| Hello Faith, welcome to the site.
Where to get your oil changed would depend on your location. I'm not a fan of the quick change lubes. Are you in the DFW area?
Type of oil, you will get a mix of answers on that one. I prefer Castrol 20W50 and I change it every 2K miles.

| | Welcome to the site Faith. Congrats on the purchase of your bug. As far as changing your oil its actually very simple to do on a bug but if you still arent comfortable with it then most import auto shops will be willing to do it. What area you located in and someone will probably know of one. |

| I just got new covers for my seats. I don't know what the pads are. Do I need them?
So Febuary 19 is the next meeting? If so then I am gonna try and make it. I would like to meet some people who know what they are doing and who could mabey help me out along the way.
As for the paint, I was thinking right around March when I get my refund back. I can't wait! |

| That depends on if the old foam is beat down or not.
Correct on February 19th. Hope to see you then.
I'll warn you that my bus isn't running yet so I'm driving my rice burner.
Have you picked a color yet?
