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,

  • manifold studs

    while i was removing my down pipe a few of the studs snapped off, and i was going to replace all of them.

    but how do i go about removing and replacing them, the snapped ones ill try drill or vice grip out, but how do i thread the new ones back in the manifolds?

      The old school way is to put 2 nuts on the thread and tighten the 2nd (last one you put on) until the thread is in far enough. Then undo

      Same principle fir getting them out too but reversed.

      Hope that helps
