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,

  • QLD Hi Peeps! New Mk4 GTi owner.

    Hi guys!

    Just recently joined this group after 2 years of snooping for technical info. I initially had a 2001 Golf Mk4 1.6L GL that I fixed up, and have recently bought a 2001 Mk4 GTi 1.8T. SO right now I have TWO Golfs (OMG!). I already have a Ramair pod filter on its way for the GTi and am looking at a downpipe and a flash tune in the next few months.

    Looking forward to talking with you all, and maybe seeing a few at a meet up!


    *edit* I also have a question for anyone browsing this section regarding Secondary Air Injection systems. It's my understanding they reduce smog from cold start ups. Is it possible that some Australian models came without said pump? I have scoured the interent but have not had any luck finding a definitive list of engine variations from country to country. (My engine is an AGU)


    Cheers,
    James
