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,

  • Intake Manifold Gasket

    Why is the ring enlarged on the intake manifold gasket 026129717D for 8v engines compared to the earlier type ? Its now obscuring the bolt hole for the injector wiring mount support. Anyone had this before ?

    Some of the heads have a vacuum connector there, which the bigger loop goes over.
    Put your maniflod on, then cut the loop off if required.

        If you bought an audi or seat later gasket, it would be different again.
        They all fit to some degree. Just depends how recent the stock is at your parts place.
