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 folks,

    I have been trolling this site for the last few weeks as I narrowed my puchasing decision (you should have seen the intial list!) Anyway, at the end of the day, after testing a Mazda 3 MPS and the Golf GTI, the VW got the win.

    So this week I found my CSG 5dr DSG GTI, with leather , 18's and MDI in stock and it will be all mine on Saturday the 6th of March 2010. (I don't know how anyone can wait six months!)

    Got a great deal after finding out about Corporate discounts (Thanks folks!) and used the cost spredsheet to calculate my offer price immediately when the dealer rang back from my enquiry, deal done in 48hrs.

    After HSV's, WRX's and a host of jap buzz-boxes, I am looking forward to a bit of Deutsche qualitat (yes thats how they spell it) from Wolfsburg.

    So when the beast is in hand I will snap it all angles and post away for those wait-listers to drool over and see when I can get in on a cruise in Vic soon.

    Thanks again to all the forum posters - see you on the road!

      Yeah, sounds great! I'll look up the details again and see how I go for time.

      I am afraid I'll be taking it too easy and get left behind

        why would you be taking it easy???

        dont baby a new engine, drive it like you normally drive the thing. The hills are the best place to run in a new car!

          Thats all the encourgement I needed! I am sure there is a reference to the Black Spur in the running-in section of the owners manual, replaces Nurbergring in the German version.

            just dont keep it buzzing around the redline the whole time, load it up going up some of the hills, use the gears liberally and you'll be fine
