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.

    Hi all

    Hi all,
    I've joined this forum because I'm interested in buying a Passat diesel. My only hesitation is the fact that German cars can get expensive to maintain after the warranty period. Does anyone have any comments to make regarding this concern?
    Thanks,

        Any car will be costly for fix after warranty gone. I have cr tdi passat 2009 and since new i replaced only accu. I retro fitted rns-510 p edition and bluettlooth 9w7. I got part cheap from poland. Fitting done by vw service and cost me 300$. Normal service cost me 350-400$, timing belt change was 800$ and that all...be sure you got cr tdi because they do not have issue with injectors like pd engine. Overall, i am very happy with car and would not go for toyota, mazda etc at all...

          Just don't go to VW. Find a Euro mechanic and it is half the price.
