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,

  • NSW MKIII VR6 Noobie

    Hi guys,

    I'm exited to be here really. I Bought myself a nice clean MKIII VR6 but it's also in the need of some maintenance;

    Valve cover gasket,
    Sump gasket,
    Sump plug,
    Diagnose cruise control,
    Handbrake light is always on,
    Clutch pedal is squeaky,
    Brake fluid flush
    Minor rust damage on the bottom of the door jam.

    I'm an apprentice mechanic working for a small business who are specialists in the German side of cars. I'm willing to put some time into my project and I have seen some decent posts on here which I'm sure will help with my journey. I will also put back into the community so keep an eye out on my new website: VR6 Site – My VR6 Repairs & Mods Journal for my journal!

    Kind regards,

    Josh Mustillo
