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,

          • Not much. Having a poke around sorting needed and unneeded parts.
            Was a small oil leak and water leak under the car. Oil leak is due to the 240k km sump gasket, water leak I don't want to know... but it's super small and seems to be when it's really cold. So time will tell if I have to attend to that.

            Alignment Monday.

              • So my indicators stopped working and I can't work out why.
                Right was working, and when I flicked to left both stopped.
                Fuses look ok. Hazards work. Brake lights work. Wiring looks ok as far as I can see.
                I did read that if the tail light globe holders get a bit crusty they can kill the whole lot?

                  • Could be... I did swap the Vento one back in with no luck. Guess they could both be dead

                            checked the relay? i guess the hazards wouldn't work if that was the case although they might be on a different circuit. relays were always an issue on my old vw's and audi's. just saying, it could be worth a shot...

                              This is what I was reading. Can take the whole system out without blowing fuses etc.
                              I did check the passenger side and it 'looked' ok, got a second set of lights on the way so that'll be a good way to rule them out.

                                They are on a different relay I think so could be it, I ran out of time to find one matching. I've added it to my list to check next time.
