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,

  • Hot Day peculiarities

    Hi my Black Pirelli has some strange hot day Peculiarities
    The doors will unlock every time i slow down and relock when 15 ks is reached, it will do this for around 10 mins or I assume when its cool
    Also I get relay ticking noises from the dash area
    these things only occur if the car has been parked in the sun for a while and always stop after cooling
    Any ideas of what can be done to prevent/rectify this problem as I find it a bit annoying
    cheers

      Ticking noises can be to do with the climate control system; it may happen even if you don't have it on - at least that's the case with my S4.

        +1 for the climate control noises. Are these soft noises coming from 'within' the dash?

        Otherwise it could also be the annoying indirect air vent creaking/crackling due to expansion/contraction
