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,

    Hi Gavin, please take me off the list for now until i get my engine mount bracket fixed.

    Last January i had a water pump replacement done at PRESTIGE & PERFORMANCE COORPAROOO (in a rush or for whatever reason) and the timing belt upper cover missed a bolt (out of 2), my front right wheel was damaged and this evening i found out that the engine mount bracket is not sitting right. There are only 3 bolts securing that bracket and one (or 2 or all 3) must not have been torqued correctly. Hopefully no damage has been done to the engine block....
    I've had similar problems with things not being put back together properly by them.

    That is the last time I use them ever again.

      Gavin, i have bought new bolts and booked to have a timing belt and water pump replaced (which includes removing and refitting the crooked bracket) this Saturday at VW Springwood (yes they are open Saturdays, the only VW service that does this in QLD).

      Will let you know by Sunday if all goes well.

        Will let you know by Sunday if all goes well (no other damages done due to P&P negligence) and ready for Happy Laps in time

        VW services quoted me $1030-$1100 to have timing belt and water pump job done, which is in fact cheaper than P&P original quote of $1000 just to have water pump replaced (timing belt was extra).
        That's good news then Nat. Look forward to hearing from you over this weekend.

          Ok people, I jut sent the PM for payment. Please get on that early for me.

          There's still room for a few extras, so anyone undecided about attending because they are new or whatever. Don't be.

          It's not a drift fest and is very civilised.

          Cheers

          Gavin

            Extremely ****ty with AAMI and their "choice of repairer".

                Ok, I need to supply trackday cars and a wake up call I'll get right on it.

                Thanks to those that paid up already.

                          Payment made.

                          Car is back alive but my pocket is much lighter from the recent ordeal although weight reduction is good for track.

                          Will need to test it this Sunday to ensure it won't fall apart anymore...
