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,

  • Amarok TSI noob

    Howdy people,

    Long time lurker; first time poster.

    Name’s Tim. I’m in Sydney. 38 years young. 2 mortgages & also 2 boys, aged 6 & 3.

    Recently bought a 2013 Amarok TSI so that I can lug tools around. After 17 years as a designer, a couple of months ago I decided to get on the tools & become a handyman. Harder work than sitting behind a laptop but I’m loving it. I put an APR tune on the Amarok just last week (couldn’t resist the 15% off sale). Have questions about this but will reserve them for a different post.

    I also have a 2010 2.0T Audi A4 Avant (beautiful car but the Amarok has replaced this car & so it’s now for sale, if anyone’s looking) & an APR tuned 2009 MK6 Golf 118TSI (Comfortline with Sports Pack), which is a really fun car to drive but which my other half drives almost exclusively these days & so, sadly, it’s no longer being utilised to its full potential & its clutch now gets a regular workout 😬

    Over the years, I’ve owned - in this order - a VH Commodore, a VN Commodore, a Hyundai Coupe, a Corolla, a Forester, the Golf, the A4, & now the Amarok. They were all modded to a certain degree - some a little & some a lot - with the exception of the Audi, which is bone-stock as I liked it the way it was.

    Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself but I’ve ended up crapping on a bit, sorry.

    Catch you around.

    Cheers,

    Tim
