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,

  • missing transmission plug?

    While poking around yesterday I noticed gears were visible through the transmission housing and thought to myself... was it always like that?? Can't say I've noticed it open or closed before. What are everyone else's 2.0 TDI manual transmission housing like?

    I did notice residue around the edge of the hole, as though a plug used to be there but now isn't.
    Has it dislodged or is it exposed just like this? ...doesn't seem right that an upward opening to the transmission remain exposed.

    TIA

    Looks like the flywheel to me..... not a huge problem because it's dry in there (no oil) but yes I would be sourcing a plug pretty quickly to stop any unwanted materials like water getting in there.
