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,

    Hmmm.
    Interesting. The dealer has just replaced the turbo's oil seals. The comment was that it was due to higher than normal boost pressure caused by the DP chip installed ... Wouldn't cover this under warranty. However, if this is a known fault - maybe it should have been covered. One of those grey areas.

      Hmmm, seems more like a very black and white area to me.

      A DP chip using increased boost pressure to do its thing, turbo seals fail - an easy warranty denial.

      Shoulda removed the DP chip before taking it in ?

          I will need some actually data to back up the YES unfortunately ...
          Use safety as argument as well, if the car brakes down at night or in remote locations.
          Back up data: movies, real life crimes.
