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,

  • VIC New owner of 2009 VW Passat Wagon 147TSI

    Hi all,
    Had been looking at the Skoda wagons (and I presume the Skoda RS 147kw car is the same engine) but I saw this late one Friday night via email on carsales and did the deal next day.

    Only 58k km, with leather trim etc - very happy with the car and the price I paid. In pristine condition. Need to do some country driving when time permits!

    That said, it only came with one remote and I've just bought (stupidly arguably?) a remote with key and '48' transponder via Ebay.

    Need to get it programmed......any recommendations in Melbourne please?

    One guy said he'd charge $250 whether the key/remote worked or not ....i guess he thinks it may well be a cheap dud (but it look/feels good for what that's worth). it may well be but surely he'd know within seconds so charging full tote odds seems very rich....

    Comments most welcome. All the best to you all.
