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,

            Its like having an auto WRX, just doesnt make any sense!

            Does anybody know if the European markets got the automatic version?

            Was thinking that because the Australian imported GTI's were in Japanese spec, so maybe that could explain why we were offered autos and de-tuned motors?

                      yes, i had one, nothing but trouble, old school auto and poorly designed. i had mine converted to manual and never ever had any trouble with it.
                      the auto was in mine was rebuilt at 40k then died at 105k.leaked oil all the time, was unable to be fixed. the starter sits under the exhaust manifold, so when it was hot it wouldnt start.
