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,

  • Hello from the UK

    Hi,
    I've just joined this forum as it seems very friendly and well informed.
    I've recently purchased a very well used 2012 VW Golf MK7 2.0TDI GT

    The stop/start is dangerous with DSG so have already built a stop/start disable circuit - it's tested, but not yet fitted. VW should really provide a default off setting in the menus.
    I guess eventually I would remember to turn it off everytime I start but I would prefer it off by default.

    Replaced the competely shot rear shock absorbers - wow, it was noisy and one tyre had very bad sawtooth wear.

    Changed the pollen filter as never changed in it's life - even though service history shows it as replaced!
    I'm not a fan of garages...

    Jerry.
Working...
