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,

    Petrol or diesel? vRS or TDI/TSI?

    Get brake pads from the guys at Brakes Direct. See what they recommend for your car, but ive had 2x sets of Remsa pads from them and they are excellent - work brilliantly and much less dust than the stock pads.

      Yes, you'd need to be a bit more specific. I've done a PD type TDI belt etc ·there are a couple of pulleys that you change when you do the belt) and it was fairly easy, but I have been doing my own cars for over 30 years. You'll need a few special tools too. Kit cost about $150 and tools under $50 so well worth DIY.

        Thanks guys,

        sorry, its a TDI 2.0 PD i think... engine code is bkd 103kW (not common rail or DPF, same as Mk5 Golf TDI i think). I shouldnt have any dramas doing the job, I have a bit of experience with timing belts. Where is a good place to source the belt kit and tools?

        THanks for the lead on pads, will order them now!

        cheers

            I have a PD TDI too (a BMM one though). The $150 price I gave above was from 2012, but I looked on eBay and there's a kit that also has a water pump for $210. Toolkit is about $40.
