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,

  • Fluid on clutch pedal

    After going for a drive yesterday I noticed my foot beginning to slip off the clutch, upon further inspection I found fluid, (only a small amount) looks be water seeping down from inside onto the pedal. Could this be a leak from my heater core???

    it could very well be the heater core, can be plugged off - replacing is abit of a job.
    Other things to check;
    Firewall grommets are all in place
    windscreen seal isn't leaking.
    IF you have a sunroof, check rails alongside - these have 4 drainholes which can block up and track down the pillars.

      I doubt it would be this, but is water pooling in the raintray area?
      Give the wet area a wipe with a (white) paper towl, may give you an idea of what type of fluid it is.

        i reckon some water dripping down where the cluch cable goes through the rain tray. Check the grommet is in place, and not wore.

        Just my two bob.

          Thanks folks.

          I will be having a look over the weekend. I did replace the clutch cable not too long ago so could be a good place to start.
