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.

              I had the windows tinted on my new R32 at Sungard Wollongabba. I won't comment on the job/care taken as yet, but I will say I'm not very impressed and will be taking the car back tomorrow morning

                      Sounds like WOTAM to me.

                      As stated above factory fill is a longlife synthetic complying with VW504/507. IIRC it's either Fuchs or Shell.

                            I actually drove a mk5 golf today. (rather than my jetta)

                            Was a TDI dsg, leather, and 2000kms on the clock. One thing I noticed was the seats were higher, and that bit that everyone says isnt leather (which I know isnt normally...) was in this model. I think that is also the reason the seats were sitting higher. I must say, I didnt like it, I felt less protected, and less in control of the car.

                            The other thing HOW THE HELL DO YOU TDI GUYS PUT UP WITH IT!!! I was so glad to be back in the Jet with its petrol turbo goodness.

                              You should have found some hills to try and then you would know why us TDI guys love them soooo much
