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,

    Yes, I do have one but they are more for the UK models and do not have the DSG in it for example. But it does give you a good knowlege of the systems, specifically the early MkV with all the small capacity engines.

      So do you find it useful?

      Unfortunately, I'll have to get it shipped from overseas so can't have a look at it before I choose to buy it or not.

      FYI- I have a GTI DSG.

      Doesn't matter too much about the DSG, I won't be touching that.

        Yes it is generally quite useful, but as mine is still under warranty I have not done anything to the car as yet.
        There is enough detail to do all things a home mechanic is capable of and will be applicable to your GTI.
