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,

  • OK this is just a suggestion for an alternate route using a section of last weeks "early" cruise.

    Taylor Blende Café to Athelstone via Lenswood, Mt Torrens, Palmer, Springton and Williamstown

    I am happy either way. There are a few more 100km/hr roads on this route (takes us out the back of the 80km/hr hills zone).

        Looking forward to seeing everyone... and I think a coffee will be in order to warm up before the drive.
        Man, some peoples idea of what constitutes nice weather is plain weird. As depressing as the sunny forecast is I accept the dry run should be fun. The coffee is locked in as a must have so I'm aiming for a 9.30 arrival.

          You've got a heater in your car right???

          Clear blue skies, sunshine and a crisp morning in the hills = perfect turbo weather.

          And you guys with FWD ought to be happy that the roads will be dry too.

          I could include an uphill wet dirt road into the route to test out the non-Haldex cars if you like

          • I like the look of the second/alternate route higher zoned areas are always a bonus

            • I can't make this one, but I've subscribed to the thread and will try for next month.

              Have a great day everyone.

                Yeah I have a heater, the cold is good. I just dislike sunny weather..

                Can skip the wet dirt road though - reschard will dirty his car.

                • Good turnout guys.Was nice to see the array of VAG.Apologies for leaving early but highway boys in blue and trade plates on sundays don't mix well..lol....even tho the Big 8 was loving the twistys.

                  • Great to see so many cars out today - 20 or 21 depending whether you count the non-VAG.

                    Waiting for the "official" photographer shot but here's one off the phone.
