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,

  • Hey All! Need help choosing....

    Hey All,

    I recognise a few of you from around the various car traps.

    Currently I drive an E46 328Ci which I've had for the last 6 years or so and have taken it as far as I can/want to as a reliable daily driver, so that's getting a cage thrown in it and will become something for a bit of track fun so I'll need something to replace it.

    I'm tossing up the idea of a MY12.5/13 MK6 GTI, MY15 Polo GTI or a MK7 GTI if one comes up for the right price. I'd really love to get DSG as my 110km round trips are killing my left leg, but the problematic DQ200 in the Polo turns me off (that and losing 70nm...)

    Anyway, look forward to hanging out and learning more. Hopefully I'll meet some of you at a meet one day.

    Cheers
    Jack

      Get a MK2. Your left leg will still be painfull but you'll be so busy complaining about the noise and your back you won't have time to worry about your leg.

      You'll also have a smile from ear to ear so it kind of balances out.

      Cheers

        Noise, back, leg, ride quality, general NVH, these are all complaints I have about my E46 already! (Maybe I'm getting old)
        I already have one car that I've ruined as a daily, that's why I'm going to flog the arse out of it at the track to punish it and either put it into a wall or make it go pop.
