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,

    I live in Sydney and use motorways but not all the time.

    My belief is that if you flog them, they last. I got 220,000km out of my first clutch too, so it doesn't mean they wear out either.

    Also I seldom drive it out of the power band, so below 1700rpm, as below that you don't get the cleanest burn.

    Furthermore I only ever put BP in it.

    I can't empirically say these things are guaranteed but they have worked for me so far [emoji4]

      OK - so just saw this. DPF clean-out without all the fuss.. The Non-Damaging DIY DPF Home Clean (Diesel Particulate Filter and Catalyst - Ash Blocked / Clogged) - YouTube
      DPF Clean (Utrasonic) at Bosch Milperra (Sydney) works really well - I put my GT Sport DPF though them and it was like new on return..

        Hey
        Thanks for posting this.
        Was your DPF fully clogged and the car not driving properly, or you just did preventative maintenance?
