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,

  • Redline shockproof oil in a mk3 vr6?

    Hey all, just wondering if any one has used Redline shockproof trans oil in their mk3 vr6? I'm wanting to change the oil in my box and I'm thinking about using this... Let me know what you think

    Hey mate.

    I haven't a VW or Skoda yet. I'm thinking about buying a Skoda Yeti.

    I have however used Redline Shockproof in my05 WRX. You need to chane the stuff more regularly because it will form lumps. I dont know if the lumps cause any problems themselves but the oil level will get low because the lumps end up in all the little corners of the box. Redline oils are usually designed for motor racing applications where the oils are changed after each race. You'll know what I mean if you drain your box. It's often referred to as smurf snot because its smurf blue and lumpy.

    Happy Days.
