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,

    G'day all,

    I just picked up a sweet little black Mk6 Golf GTI. I've already fitted a set of PS4s and am keen to get stuck into a few more little improvements:

    Head unit upgrade
    Reverse camera
    LED interior lights
    Stage 1 APR or Bluefin tune (Still gotta work through some research on this one to decide, that's why I joined the forum).
    Tags: apr, interior, lights, stage, tune

    Before you spend a lot more on mods, I’d be getting all the maintenance up to scratch.

    Make sure the DSG servicing has been done, timing chain tensioner/guides/chain have been updated and carbon clean the back of the intake valves.

    A DSG or timing failure can make a significant dent in your wallet.

      Thanks Tigger, absolutely. The maintenance is mostly under control, that carbon clean is the only outstanding item.
      No DSG worries on this one, its only got one clutch.
