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.

    NSW New member - Skoda

    Hi All,

    I'm picking my my Skoda Superb wagon this weekend. It's to replace my Peugeot 308 as my 2 year old son now puts his feet on the headrest of the passenger seat. I'm 2m tall so finding a car with legroom for me and back seat room for how tall I expect my son to get was a challenge.

    I'm a hardware/software test engineer so I'll be reading up on all of the info on how to fiddle with the car's settings A workmate is an ex-Audi automotive software engineer with plenty of experience with the internals of the system so I'll be leaning on his expertise a fair bit.

    Welcome bud! We have a facebook group for Skoda Enthusiasts - "Skoda Modderz" if your keen to join. If your keen to tinker get an OBDEleven it allows you to change settings on the car that wasnt activated from standard.

            And that was in the Dealers driveway.

            Good to see another person who disregards the "run in" period.

              Hehe it was one of the 48 hour test drive cars, so I expect that it's very well run in
