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,

  • 89 Golf A/T problems

    I have an 89 Golf CLI. a/t. I was checking on all my fluids yesterday and saw that the A/T fluid was low on the dipstick. Since I had stock of ATF from my previous car, I refilled it about half a liter. Actually the vibrations were less when I put it on D when the engine is cold. My problem is that its not shifting properly anymore, on low speeds up to 2krpm it shifts okay but on the open road, its having a hard time shifting, when it reaches 3K ++ then I shifts but engine is growling already.

    Was it a mistake to refill the a/t?
