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,

    Hi all, looking forward to participating actively in this forum.

    I own a 2006 VW Golf TDI and have never regretted choosing the Diesel model. Saved quite a lot of bucks on fuel! Only whinge is that the rear brake lights have blown out four times over the last 3 odd years.

    And also would like to request the moderators/admins to change the automatic email title that requires further authentication to determine if I am legit as it had the title "Account banned at VWwatercooled...." it was a shock and I personally find the title quite offensive.

    Cheers
    Antony

    Doesn't sound right to me. I have forwarded this onto admin.
    Welcome aboard by the way.
    Cheers,

      I apologise for any inconvenience this has caused and I hope this doesn't detract from your experience.

      We get a massive amount of new sign ups everyday including a very large number which are spammers, to combat this we have a system that is set up to allow through all Australian registrations (as well as a few other selected countries) without any question. All other registrations are automatically rejected, banned and set an automatic message asking them to confirm they are a real person and know what we are about. A short email see's those accounts unlocked as soon as it's received.

      Two possible causes of this could be your overseas at the moment or your using a overseas based proxy server.

      If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.
