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,

  • Fresh to VW

    Hey all

    I'm fairly new to the vw world and own a 1998 Mk4 golf 1.6 GL. its having a bit of a problem and my mate austin said this was the place to find out anything about vw, so here i am.
    i hopefully plan to mod my car a little bit, maybe just some coilovers and wheels, stance it a bit.

    open to any ideas you all have for mods!

    the golf has worked perfectly over the year ive owned it, was in pretty mint condition when i got it but just in the past week the cooling system has had a problem and my engine overheats, i replaced the thermostat and flushed the radiator and hoses, was a bit of some grey lumpy sediment but cleaned it all out and its still struggling to stay at a safe temperature. there didn't seem like it had any oil in the coolant so im pretty certain its not the HG...

    would love to hear what anyone thinks it may be or if you know a vw mechanic around the central coast id like to get to know them a bit better haha

    Cheers
Working...
