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,

  • Newbie Here and recent VW enthusiast, mainly in my 2011 GOLF R

    Hello all. I've been searching this forum for a couple of months now and thought I should introduce myself.

    I have recently purchased a 2011 Golf R and am looking at applying a stage 1 APR tune on the car in the next month.

    I am eagerly researching this site for information.

    Good to be here!

    Regards,

    Nate

    Nice purchase.

    You won't be disappointed with a stage 1 tune... the only thing you'll wish is that you got stage 2!!!!

    Beware modding is addictive - you're starting down a slippery slope.

        Forgot to mention.. I also own an '09 WRX (Now the other halves daily driver) which was my main hot hatch until the new Golf R. The Rex is good in its own rite, although after owning the R for a few months now I definitely prefer the R over the Rex in so many aspects. Previous to the '09 Rex I owned a '97 Rex which was my first taste at Turbo charged AWD 4 cylinder hot hatches.
