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 Deng, recent purchase? I've only seen 1 other Candy White Rocc in brissie and that was at Stones Corner, perhaps it was yours.
      There aren't many of us around Brisbane in white (coming from a fellow candy white Rocco owner)

          Hi mate, i have bought the car last year in June. You are right, there are not many of them on the road. What about you, what option did you get for your car. I wish I have had dynaudio when i got the car.

                Mine is a Rising Blue one and it has APR Stage 1 on it and an intake - check out the Scirocco picture thread and get a picture of yours up there too.

                    Nice color! I had my stage 1 tune last week at APR coorparoo and to be honest I haven't noticed a huge different or maybe my expectation was too high. But one thing I do notice is the fuel consuption got better than before. I will try and post a photo up shortly.

                      I got my Stage 1 and VWR intake done last Tuesday and noticed huge differences, especially with the intake which made the engine note and induction sound so much stronger.

                        Oh it was you! I had my stage 1 last Tuesday as well and James from APR told me there was a white scirocco just before me. But I didnt noticed a huge different though, maybe my expecation was too high or maybe I didnt change my intake. Good for you mate, and did you notice any changes for fuel consuption?

                          Ha wow wat r the chances of that.. fuel mileage is good, avg 7.5 down highway with aircon on and 8.5 plodding around gympie rd with my wife (so I drive gentle)
                          As for the intake.. u wont notice much inside the cabin unless u are seriously intently listening but I had a friend get in and drive past me at various speeds under various throttle loads and my god its beautiful lol.. it also smooths out the throttle response too

                            Actually just another thought, have you checked to make sure your still running whichever program is their performance one? Mine was program 3.
                            I know when they give you a rundown they flick through all the programs, perhaps it was left on stock by mistake?

                              I had Stage 1 by itself for 6 months and the difference from stock is like night & day - you shouldn't have any doubts.
                              Also if you're worried about fuel consumption don't put it on a track - 25.4 today at Lakeside.
