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,

    I currently have a 2008 R32 and 2010 TDI CC. Both are great for what we want. But it is interesting that I took the CC in for its first service this morning (14,500) and saw that the inside of both front tyres were badly scrubbed. Stear indicated that this is not unusal for a front wheel drive car with significant torque. As the car is driven by my wif I don't think that hard driving and spinning of front wheels is really and issue. I was wondering if others are having the same sort of issue. I am also wary of purchasing additional conti's if this wear could be typical.

    I have heard of Vw's with terrible wheel alignment from the boat ride to Australia.
    I made sure to get the Dealer to do a full wheel allignmetn before i picked up the car becasue of this.

    I doubt torque + fwd = inside tyre wear on a normal car.
