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.

    There wouldn't be any point. The loom gets brittle over time but doesn't seem to break unless it's removed as part of the injector replacement process. The injector failure is the big issue until it is properly resolved.

    If the piezo controlled injectors were as reliable as the "normal" PD versions, then replacing the loom every 100,000km would probably be a good idea.

      If you got the car from a dealer, did they give you a warranty? If it was private, well, there's probably not much you can do!
