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,

  • New member looking to buy PASSAT 3.2 DSG - Should I?

    Hi All, I am in the process of deciding whether or not to buy an impeccably maintained but high km (165,000) Passat 3.2 dsg 4 motion 2007. Researching this car is doing my head in. Trying to work out if they are reliable long term and if the 6 speed dsg is problematic is giving me a headache. Any feedback from owners would be hugely appreciated. Cheers.

    I was thinking of buying the same model a few years back. Looks very solid and the performance level is beyond satisfactory as well. Check out this article, might help with your research

      Thanks Robert, appreciate you taking the time to post, I'm pretty sure I've seen this article among the many I have read, no doubt they are a sensational car, only problem I have is with the huge amount of negativity around online regarding their overall reliability and super expensive issues if things go wrong, especially regarding the DSG. Its almost impossible to get a balanced view. Thanks again!
