Interior problem
2002 Volkswagen Beetle 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive 66000 miles

we forgot to close windows, huge downpour, wet inside. Radio is cracking when off, and without key in ignition is running. Did I really screw up my buglet???

Hi there,

internal car electrics do not take kindly to getting so wet, leave the car with the doors open for as long as you can and start drying it out, hopefully there no permanent damage.
