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,

    You would have to be pretty stupid to flatten your sill panels if you use your whatever jack you have, as long as you protect it by placing a wooden or rubber block between the jack and the sill panel. I use 2 trolley jacks when jacking the cars up and in 20 years in business I can tell you that it takes more than 10 years before the car body (any brand) gets weak and the sill panel is unreliable for jacking up.

    Certainly I'm yet to see 1-10 years VAG car with the sill panels that aren't fit for jacking up.

    You're worried about the problem that doesn't exist yet.
