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,

  • Golf 1.4l 118TSI recall to update the software for the engine control unit

    Dose any one know what the proplem was with the softwhare and what this new program will do to the performance of the car.
    they say in the letter that they are updtaing the software because of complaints in certain driving situations.

    I was going to have my car chiped for better performance but if its going to be a problem I dont want to waste the money.

    any one know any thing about this?

    No problem with performance chipping at all. Get your VW upgrade done first, saves having to do the performance version twice!

        That sucks VW is having a software problem to their Control Unit, I wonder how German technology would place this problem and give it a quick fix.
