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 Hi All!

    Hi everyone!

    Name: Dave
    Current Car: MY17 Polo Gti 6speed Manual
    Location: Sydney
    Occupation: Mechanic
    Personal stuff: Married, 2 daughters.

    Just sold my mk5 R32 about a month ago, and picked up a brand new 6c gti from Melbourne 2 weeks ago. Current odo reads 1600km.
    First time new car buyer, totally in love with the polo.
    I'm passionate about family, cars, tiny things and my favourite brand is VW (in case that wasn't obvious)
    Looking forward to being part of the group! Thanks for having me.

      Hi mate!

      Sorry I only just noticed your reply from ages ago!

      Not many short term plans for pog, just minor cosmetic stuff, got whiter interior LEDs on order, then I'll do the white fog lights to match everything up.

      Long term I'll do at least a tune and exhaust.
      Would like to change wheels and add a little drop.

      But yeh I had an R32 that I spent a couple years modding and it's kind of nice to get back in a stock car, so much more comfortable!

      What's on the cards for yours!?

        nothing is really on the cards for mine, as its a lease so not really worth messing with it. Fairly happy as is, but would love to remove the turbo baffler though as it doesnt sound that great being silent.

          Ahh fair enough, I agree though it really is a nice car standard. Some guys go to town on their cars in the first few thousand kms and I'm like, wow you never even got used to it stock.

          Yeh the only time I really ever hear my turbo is at night on a quite road with the window down...sometimes you get to hear it spool and blow off. But sad considering it's the sporty model, don't know why they made it sound so conservative.

          The turbo muffler delete would be good but a bit expensive if it doesn't actually do much. They get mixed reviews.
