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,

                  What did they do to it?
                  The 30,000km on Octy was ~$340 inc brake fluid flush.

                    • Replaced rear sway bar linkages...not sure if they were important but they made a clanging sound like the jack was loose, or the back wheels were going to fall off.

                      All quite now...

                          i got mine from officeworks.

                          dont have the pack anymore, but it was of a picture of a brick wall and a frame or something being stuck on it, if i remember correctly.

                          • Changed the centre caps on the wheels! look a bit more OEM



                            Unfortunantly the bolt caps are a bit to big to fit the recess

                            • Got my Denver's sprayed black with red pin stripe

                              I just got my GTI second hand, immaculate condition except for the rims!! absolutely awful gutter rash , so i was getting them fixed and figured may as well black them out while i'm at it.

                              Opinions? i understand its not everyones cup of tea but i like them.
