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.

You could have a bad TX valve and that would show up on the gauges for sure

    From experience if the system has been left dormant the tx valve will be goosed

              Jealous. Be lying if I said I actually look hard for any. It's always a passing thought.

              Have you got any quotes for the clear to be fixed?

                Nope not yet. But I took it to a panel beater for a quote to get the sills bent out and he said they cant do much else but respray the entire panel.... so thatd be the entire drivers door and roof. I think ill give the spray can a shot first haha.

                            You don't even need airconditioning.

                            What's up with your gearbox?

                              You do in humid briso. Oh and black leather in a black car...

                              Gearbox oil leak. Read back a bit for comments from Jmac
