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,

  • Gen Next Beetle orders commence in UK

    Just got the latest e-newsletter from Carshowroom.com.au (Trading Post) and noticed there was an article on the New Beetle :

    See article here

    I'll cut to the most interesting part:

    "At launch, UK Volkswagen Beetle customers can select from two petrol engines – a 1.2-litre TSI with 142kW driving through a seven-speed DSG automatic, or a 1.4-litre TSI with 217kW driving through a six-speed manual transmission."

    Has VW replicated IRON MAN's Arc reactor !!??!

      I think they may have gotten their power conversions mixed up haha because doing it the wrong way on the 105hp/77kw one gave me 142ish haha
