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,

  • Heater Core Bypass (Mk3 VR6)

    Hey all, just a helpful hint if you want to bypass your heater core until you can get it fixed. A lot of people struggle to get the right part/fitting to bypass the heater core. I personally went to Des Mundays (An Engineering Supplies Shop) to get a 3/4 Inch Right Angled Barbed Brass Fitting. Perfect part for the job.

    A lot of thread's I have seen have just use plastic fitting's which will fail fairly quickly and are not rated for this application. Most are only rated for 60 degrees celsius.

    So if you are looking for this part find your closest Engineering Supplies Shop rather than a plumbing store / Bunnings / Supercheap or what have you.

    Hope this will be helpful to someone.
