When engine was changed,did you get the donor motor computer,or have you had the original flashed for the donor engine,this may be your issue.

You've replaced "everything", huh? Usually a Beetle with EPC lamp on needs a brake light switch, under the dash at the brake pedal. Scanning for codes would diagnose that properly for you.
