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,

  • r32 high milage services

    Hey Guys, first time poster.

    I am in the market for a r32 looking around the $12-15k mark. I have read plenty of threads about major servicing around 60k and the importance of DSG and Haldex services.

    However due to the budget (and age of car I guess) I am looking at a range of cars between 140k km - 200k km

    I am open to manual or DSG but most listed seem to be DSG as expected.

    My question is not regarding the reliability of the cars at this milage as I know this is down to the service history but any threads seem to be a little sparse on info regarding services over the 100k mark.

    What should I be looking for at (not exact intervals as I cant find the service schedule online anywhere)

    60km - DSG + Haldex Service.
    100km - ?
    120km
    150km
    175km
    200km

    I seem to be scaring off a few sellers when asking for pictures of full service history but I guess I am dodging a bullet with those.

    Much appreciated.
