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,

    Glad to hear that it's all fixed and you're back on the road again.

          Slight mishap getting the car off the dyno...

          ABS doesn't work at all well when the fronts and rears are going at different rates so running over rollers can be problematic - especially when you have a big fan sitting only a metre away

          Though good news is that the workshop has made it all good

            whoops. Good to hear they sorted it then. Yes it does look awkward getting them on and off. I still find it hard to come to terms with doing 200kmh in a car that is stationary and metres from a brick wall!

              Yeah AWD cars have to go forwards first whereas the FWD cars go straight back off the rollers.
