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,

  • faulty ignition coils ?

    after many perals in rebuilding my hydrolocked vr6 24v i found out that the final peice not letting it run was that the original ignition coils were damaged when the engine was watter submerged and not working ( well four of them ) so i went on the net and ordered in all new ones from the us
    today i recived a big box and opened it up to find i recived my aip electronics replacement items wich were aprox 20-30mm longer but took no notice


    i went and instaled them in to the car and nothing every single one of them doesent work and the computer keeps showing up a missfire code for all six ? have i missed something do you have to install them in a particular way or are they straight plug and play ?

    I reckon the 20-30mm longer bit is probably a good reason they don't work.
    I've heard of spacers plates, but I'm not sure they will fix it for you.
