Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

                          still here if anyone keen,

                          rego runs out late next month, and clutch is starting to slip under hard acceleration.
                          Will drop to $2100 for a quick sale.

                          also has a new oil filter, oil, couple gaskets.
                          Sump gasket leaks a little, so would need to be sealed up on next oil change.
                          Car runs great though, few flat spots now and then, but overall its turn key drive.
