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 VW Polo check engine light

    my daughter just bought her first car VW polo 2010 it occasionally has the engine light come on and then sometimes goes into limp mode. unfortunately every time we plug a scan tool into it there are no errors found. We took it to a service center who also came up with nothing on the scan tool but advised that the pressure control valve for the turbo required replacement.
    so best part of $1000 later we've had it replaced and 2 days later back in limp mode.
    when it goes into limp mode the EPC light also comes on
    I'm planning to take it back but was curious to what others have experienced with similar issues.


    Thanks
