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 Help..Oil leak

    Hi

    Have had a brand new147TS1 for 3 months, absolutely fantastic until it started to leak oil from somewhere .... The dealer had it all last week and said an "o" ring had gone in the timing box and they needed to get new gaskets and parts from Sydney.

    They had the car all last week, and you wouldn't believe it more oil on the garage floor this evening.

    Has anyone had this sort of problem?

    Where do I go from here? Any advice would be appreciated
    Thanks

    Take it back and tell them to fix it. I assume that you are dealing with Crick's. Ian Brown is the service manager there. Speak to him.

      Nah, Cricks wouldn't do a good deal, Went through a Brisbane Northside dealer.

      They phoned this morning and said they would pick up the car on Wednesday and have another crack at it. I'm still waiting on a call back from VW Australia.
