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,

  • Whats the difference between MY 10 and MY 11 103kw TDI engines

    Does anyone know what internal changes were made to the 2.0 litre 103kw TDI engines introduced on MY11 cars?

    They have the same power and torque ratings but are quoted to use approximately half a litre less fuel per 100km. Visually identifiable by the oil filler cap moving from the right hand side of the car to the left hand side. I've noticed the later engines do not blacken their oil anywhere near as fast as the engines up to MY10. Anyone know what has changed internally that would cause this?

    Isn't the issue the change from PD (pump duse) to CR (common rail) engine?
