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,

  • Another Newby T5 owner

    Hi all,
    Just a quick one to say hi and that I am looking forward to going through this forum learning about my T5.
    Traditionally i have only worked with wood and general building stuff (plaster etc). Anything that requires grease i have avoid maintaining myself. Hence i don't know a lot about cars or engines as i don't have much of an interest in them. Looking forward to learning though.

    I have had a 2009 T5 for the last 2 years that i have converted to a campervan behind the second row seats. Love the car but would like to look after it better i.e. give it a more regular wash. We used Drifta for the camper set up and can't say a bad word about them.

    Looking forward to going through this forum to see if anyone can recommend mechanics in the Hunter Valley outside of Perry Penfolds. We have moved away from Newcastle now so keen on hearing if there are any other recommendations.

    Love VW Kombis and Transporters and eagerly look through the latest (UK) VW Camper magazines with envy.

    Cheers all
    NM

      Welcome N M
      Love Kombis and Transporters too. I grew up with my dad having VW camper vans - last one was a Synchro which I borrowed to camp in the German Rhine area. Great memories. Would love a new T.
