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.

  • Which models have DPFs??

    Looking to buy a diesel golf, concerned by all the forum content regarding DPFs. Does the Mk6 2.0 103 TDI have one? Thanks

    EVERY MK6 diesel has a DPF. It has to because of the latest Euro 6 emission rules. You will find this across virtually all manufacturers. In the MKV only the GT TDI had one. On the upside common rail will be kinder to the DPf, as it meters the fuel more precisely, so is likely to produce less soot. If you do go down the path, get a Provent 200 fitted from new and maintian the inner filter. If you get a manual learn to drive carefully below 1700rpm, preferably mostly above that. DSG will cater for it by changing down when required.
